Black series XWing Pilot helmet up for pre-order on Amazon

[Mara Jade's Father]

I'll be modifying mine into the ESB version for my costume. It shouldn't be to hard.

The main thing is that when he is in the Speeder, the has his mic on the other side minus the rubber tip vs A New Hope.

There are a few variations within The Empire Strikes Back itself. It also seems like the ear pads are removed to make room for the skullcap although they may have been returned by the time he is seen inside his xwing. When he is in the speeder his strap is running through the chin cup the wrong way and his rebel logo has a chip of paint missing on its left side. When he is running around Hoth, the logo is unchipped, his chin strap / cup is corrected and the mic is gone.

From the video it does look a tad undersized. Not staggeringly so, and I'm sure some of that impression is

I will find out tomorrow. I have the eFx version and a fan made version. I’ll check the size against them. From the video, the general size looks good but I could be possible that with the electronics and liner, it could be a tight fit for larger heads. That seems to be the case for the Poe. I have a fitting issue with the trooper helmet too. In that case, the nose pad presses hard against the bridge of my nose.

Im honestly surprised they managed to keep the mic arm metal.

Guys, a quick rough measurement of my helmet I recently received is approx 10.25” in length, with the helmet facing you. It’s about 11.25” from the bottom to the top of the “Mohawk”

Recently they have had a habit of not updating the status once something has shipped. If they charged you, its on its way. I've ordered about 10 times from that site so far.

Hasbro charged my card yesterday, so I assume it should be on its way, though I haven't received notification.

Where do the Hasbro products ship from?

 

[RodanAZ]

Nevermind... got a shipping notification overnight. Should have it next week.

I received my shipping notice from Hasbro as well. Should be arriving in a few days!

I received mine today from Amazon! This helmet really looks good on display and I was surprised too (happily) that the mike arm is metal and flexible. Loving the work they are putting into these helmets! The weathering on this one is great and certainly adds nice depth to it.
Next one for my collection will be The Fett!!

Efx on left, Hasbro center, Richie Armor on right.

Looks very close in size to Richie armor kit which is made from a size large helmet base. The Efx may be larger as it may be an xl base.

Hope they release a Biggs Dark lighter helmet.

I'd love for them to release these (and the Poe helmet) in unpainted white (or light gray) plastic. Just blank helmets that we can do ourselves for say, $80 instead of $100. And why in the hell haven't they integrated a Bluetooth headset into these yet? It seems like such a no-brainer. If I get one, I think I'll have to try that.

Can anyone confirm that the visor is indeed fixed?

 

[Peacefrog35]

Per one of the YouTube reviewers, its fixed.

Can anyone confirm that the visor is indeed fixed?

Fixed

I got mine today ordered from EE. Really nice helmet. I put in all 3 pads and it went on my somewhat large head easily. The helmet may be the size of a large APH-6B helmet instead of an XL but I thought once I put it on the size was great- not undersized, not bobble-head.

 

[Mara Jade's Father]

I say it fits by 7 3/8 large size head very well even with the padding. I don’t have any batteries in the house so I have yet to try out the fx functions. It looks great on.

so was it know for absolute certainty what size helmet was used for the master of the screen used helmet?

another thing I was wondering. Is it possible this helmet was based off a rogue one prop helmets?

 

[James Kenobi 1138]

I thought Anovos supplied the flight suits and (raw) helmets for Rogue One, maybe someone can post the Hasbro next to the Anovos for a size comparison.

 

[James Kenobi 1138]

I measured my head, 23.5 inches, 7 1/2 hat size, helmet goes on/off easily with just a little tucking of the ear pads when going on. Very comfortable.

Yeah they did some Bluetooth speaker stuff with the starlord helmet but nothing since.
