Black Series Mandalorian helmet announced

[Kroenen77]

Is that a paper towel holder as a stand?

Yes...its from Amazon.Made from metal.Great for smaller and medium size helmets like this.

This is by far the best ever mass market helmet ever from photos being posted. I am totally blown away, and I havent even got mine yet as I'm in the UK. The way they have nailed the finish, interior etc is absolutely stunning.

EFX, Anovos should take look at this and rightly be embarrassed. IMO the comparison photos posted make it quite obvious that the replica prop licence is in the wrong hands. People want great replica props on a budget, and Hasbro is the way. I know some want exactly as seen on screen and higher quality build, but let's be honest, it's a no brainer.

For most people this helmet is the perfect way.I also love mine.But from the replica point there are many not accurate details.
So the EFX or Anovos helmets are a complete higher level from the accuracy side.That you must pay.
I think the best way is to have both...the EFX/Anovos for the showcase and the Hasbro for playing around.

I agree that this helmet is fantastic, but let’s not get carried away. Anovos’ helmet is far more accurate. The EFX is somewhere in between.

Given that's possible to buy and, you know, actually receive this one, I'd say it wins by default.

EFX is the most accurate one.Its a direct siliconmold from a real helmet.Anovos is (only)a scan.But overall they are both very accurate.Anovos is more glossy and EFX more weathered.Its a personal taste.

Got my shipping notice from Target! The helmet will be here in a few days.

Will post up a review and compare to the Anovos!

Mine to ship any day, looks like it needs a little weathering to look more on point?...or graphite powder?....

 

[AnubisGuard]

It's definitely too bright. Airbushing a lightly smoked clear would probably help a lot with that.

I know the distance taken/focal lengths are different but at least one can look for some differences/similarities. Left is eFX, right is BS.

 

[BudaFett]

It looks nice. A few things stand out that I do not like:

1) The back keyslots.
2) The ear platforms
3) The visor's length.

 

[Kroenen77]

And the lines on the mohawk are no grooves like on the real prop...its a raised part.

Here you can see it very good.

The Hasbro helmet is a complete new sculpt and has nothing to do with the real helmets.But for what it is its really nice.

Visor length appears to be s1 inspired. Jawline seems too rounded.

Took some Quick comparison pics of efx and the black series [emoji16]

 

[Jaymig926]

Mine just came in

 

[agliarept]

All the available helmets look great. at first glance without contect, the Hasbro helmet immediately reminds me of the show. Granted, that's not based on actual details/accuracy comparison. Just a quick guttural reaction based on appearance and what i think it's supposed to look like.

Will look great with a dark/dirty brown wash.

To me, the visor on the BS looks extremely transparent. Even moreso than the BS Fett.

Man after seeing you folks unbox your helmets, I hope I get a notification from Target soon

 

[teecrooz]

Target has mine arriving Friday.

Got my notification today, so hopefully yours is soon coming.

Per Amazon, mine won't ship until June 3rd! What the fudge??

For the Fett, I ordered directly from Hasbro and brought up the rear compared to Amazon. I guess Target gets my money the next time!
