i've seen a few sellers on ebay offering it, and the price seems to vary a lot.
I was wondering if anyone got one? how much did you pay for it and from whom?

By all accounts, portumacs is very good. I havent seen it myself but I have heard good things about it.

The Portumacs look good if heavily simplified. Probably your best bet if accuracy and detail are not such a concern.

Anyone have pics of the portumac?
I have the .45 size Riddell, which is OK.
Full size would be better.

Thanks, looks OK.
Just diapponting that there is no interior breather details.
That make the reveal helms more interesting.

I too was thinking this very thing. I watched one of portumac's recent auctions end and tried to convince my wife to let me click that bid button LOL.
Seriously, I have wondered how well it fits. There is no crappy velcro to hold the lid stable, so does the lid fit really, really well into whatever sort of joint is on the top of the mask? I'd asked him myself, but I wouldn't want to lead him on cuz I don't have the $$ right now anyways...but someday....

Rumor has it that Master Replicas has a ROTJ Vader reveal helmet in the pipeline. It supposedly won't have a dome, though.

But considering their problems with their current helmets, that may be a looong way off.
