Black Series Boba Fett Helmet Announced

[Hecubus114]

Box image shows it as smooth - I guess we'll wait and see. If it's smooth, it's an instabuy. The helmet in the video just looks like someone bought the other and spray painted it white.

Is that real or is it photoshopped fan art?

Would I lie to you my friend?!

Really? What are they thinking with that price?!

 

[Hecubus114]

Meh, I retract my previous comment. You can see the paint outlines even in the box images. They are just trying to make them less apparent.

Interesting that the weathering texture can still be seen In the white helmet

They are thinking "There's a sucker born every minute," and they'd be right.

I got $10 in Reward Certificates, so I just pre-ordered one from Best Buy.


Can a mod go back & delete all the posts where I complained about Best Buy?

 

[MacBeath]

Double the price! Star Action Figures have it up for £89.95.

I find it odd that they removed the dent but kept the surface texture. Doesn’t make any sense.

I would have rather had a different paint job on an X-Wing helmet.

M guess is it was based on what they were willing to budget for this version. Any part difference is going to cost money to create and set up for manufacturing. I guess they were only willing to make a new dome piece and figured collectors would not mind the minor marring of the other pieces.

They stated the the price for the boba fett was due to the complicated paint app. This has been discussed in the thread.

They only needed to make a new mold for the top of the helmet instead of the entire helmet that way, most likely. It doesn’t really bother me and even if it did it would be fairly easy to sand it and repaint it.

Either way I have it preordered.

The white Fett never really did it for me anyways, and keeping the molded in damage texture makes it a hard pass for me. Im just hoping a Mando helmet is in the cards at some point.
