Black Series Boba Fett Helmet Announced

[benhs1898]

DANG IT! I drove 40 miles to the nearest Walmart that was showing these in stock on Thursday, looked up and down every toy aisle, up and down the main aisles, but never thought to look back in the electronics section. Didn't see hide nor hair of 'em and figured they were showing in stock because they'd been received, but simply weren't out on display yet.

I think I'll call first next time.

They did have 4 pairs of Wrangler Jeans in my size though, so it wasn't a total bust.

Do not bother calling. They will probably blow you off.

Can confirm, called my “local” Walmart. Blew me off. (Phrasing.) The only one showing up as having them “in stock” is over 40 miles away so I was just trying to find out if they were actually out on the floor. I tried to give her the SKU code and she wouldn’t even take it to check.

This helmet looks epic.

The one thing that has always concerned me is that everyone bar MR got the visor near enough bang on. The pinch on the MR looks awful.

How are you guys checking to see if it's in stock at your local Walmart? It's not even showing up
on the website.

They were showing up as in stock at multiple walmarts within an hour of me for about a week. I waited until it showed up as less than 6+ to show they had put them out and were being sold. Made the trip on Monday and sure enough they were setting out on the shelf. Just be patient, I'd say they'll be pretty available within the next week or so!

I was hoping everyone would ignore that. Haha. I’m venturing out today to see what I can find in the wild.

I don’t think I trust brickseek. As the guy at Walmart told me “well, sometimes it’s wrong”

 

[Mr Mold Maker]

What annoys me in particular is I had it preordered on Amazon at the original price as soon as it went up.. and then I got impatient and picked up an FPH2 helmet kit instead. I was thinking I’d be able to finish it before the Hasbro released. Well.. here we are.

Best of luck with your search! I hope you find one.

For what it's worth, I checked there as well. I have 2 stores that actually have nothing for star wars period. Not even those junky looking light sabers. I thought there's no way, so I went looking at the electronics section. As well as surrounding areas and outdoor patio lawn crap. Nothing.

 

[Helix6187]

fellow canadians have you found an available source on this side of the border ?

Still searching and all the pre order are sold out everywhere I look.


I already missed the X-wing helmet and I would like to not miss this one...

I got my email saying BBTS will be processing my preorder for my Fett Helmet soon...but I'm weighing finding one nearby lol....

It looks great and as a fan of the helmets but not willing to spend the money on a super accurate Fett helmet(for now), it will look great in a case and scratch MY Fett Itch.

Now, the REAL question is....is it in poor taste to stick this in a detolf with a Darth Ugly ESB, a Gino V2 TK, (and a black series Luke helmet)? lol

 

[Halliwax]

Guys don’t forget, even if the website says instock and they aren’t on the floor

They are in the back still

We proved this with multiple cases here

Target works the same way, if you find someone nice enough they will go in the back and get one.

Nice chick at target went in the back and got him a exclusive funko that wasn’t out yet

Split them 5 bucks and they’ll never forget you next time

 

[Peacefrog35]

Not bad taste at all. I have had an MR..now have an EFX which I love! Got the BS this week and will display it proudly and still kept my BBTS preorder. I think this will be the best helmet they ever do. What a value!

I dont know what I'm doing wrong but I can't find the boba fett helmet on Walmart site at all.

What am I doing wrong

 

[JoeG]

UPS just delivered mine. Very cool looking! I'm a Fett fan, but far from an expert. To my eye this looks incredible for the price I paid. Until the day comes when I find the perfect ESB Fett helmet for my collection, this will more than serve as a damn nice placeholder.

You using brickseek?

I saw on another site that there is a prototype Boba repaint version due out in August

Source? That'd be more than a repaint -- they'd have to fill in all the physical damage.
