eFX SCOUT TROOPER HELMET LEGEND EDITION!!

Can the faceplate not close fully?

The Limited edition had the same issue. I think the fabric lining prevents it from fully closing.

More photos are up now from Gabe.

Major inaccuracy due to it not being vacuum formed: it's missing the strip of plastic on the underside of the visor.

This is disappointing. The weathering is very poor and the blaster doesn’t have the same level of detail as the RS one.

Video will be live tomorrow morning. Is it perfect? No. But does it look way better than the LE? Yes!

That super asymmetrical visor (lens opening) is an eyesore. The original props were not like that. They had some asymmetry to a degree but that just looks like it’s warped.

Wow the left side of the visor does look overly wonky to me too. Pics of an original I took a few years back are here if anyone wants to compare Star Wars Helmets Review of Original Biker Scout Trooper Helmet

cheers

Weathering looks like the helmet has freckles. Some screen used helmets had heavy weathering, but to be honest I didn't see anything like this.

It's actually happening lol

Look at Nilo Rodis-Jamero's face, I can totally understand his feelings about all this:

Is the blaster a background blaster? It looks so much simpler than the RS scout blaster.

You can say that about this "Legend" helmet when compared to the RS Prop Masters one as well.

How quickly do you think we’ll see casts of the blaster available?

You need to cut it off first

 

[Wolfsburg]

Yeah the blaster being fixed to the base is another unpleasant surprise. I can only assume Disney made them do that? Don’t they have a thing against blaster replicas now?

I didn’t receive a shipment notification, but my order from EFX was delivered this morning! I’m in So Cal.

It looks nice, not perfect, but I'm happy enough from what I've seen so far.
I asked for a little time to gather the funds together to make the payment, as over the years, I spent the money I had put aside for it.
Hopefully I should be completing my order next week.

Mine is supposed to ship on Monday. For the most part I am happy with what I am seeing, but attaching the blaster to the base is lame. The helmet itself seems to look pretty good and the weathering doesn't seem to be overdone. And this version seems to not have the huge gap that the limited version did. I know the helmet is not constructed in the same manner as the screen-used but seems to have used the same materials, but certainly looks the part. Don't really like the base so will be displaying mine with a different base along with the signed plaque and probably my RS Props Blaster.

Would have looked better un-weathered

 

[Wolfsburg]

I think the weathering actually isn't that inaccurate although I also don't particularly care for it. I wonder how difficult it'd be to remove or at least tone down a bit if one wanted.
