I'll be excited when you get your helmet Jkno. Cause that'll mean mine won't be far behind, & I'll know they're actually shipping.

So if I find a random amazing device in my attic with zero prior knowledge of this technology's existence, I could become a successful entrepreneur for making more of it?

Hopefully the teasers about Master Replicas coming back are true. Maybe they can get some of these prop licenses back and actually start producing pieces again. The entire licensed hobby went to hell as soon as they dissolved that company and opened eFX. We clearly know now which part of the partnership actually got **** done.

We finally have an update! I received an email from EFX a couple of hours ago. Here's what it says.
"First of all, I would like to apologize for all of the unexpected delays in this project. This project has had issues that were more challenging than usual or could have anticipated.
We also apologize for not communicating any updates recently. We ran into a significant issue and have been working hard to resolve it as quickly as possible. The factory that we were using for this project has gone out of business and we had to find another factory to take over this project. Fortunately, one of our other factories has agreed to take on this project and most importantly, they have produced a couple of our helmets before. Also, we do not have to start the development over. We were able to retrieve all of our master patterns and other development samples. So, the new factory will start to cast their sample helmets for our approval once they return from the Chinese New Years holiday. As soon as we have a confirmed new schedule, we will let you know!
Please note that the Biker Scout helmets will not be available for pre-order on our website until we have a more definitive production schedule.
Now, that brings us to you! Our loyal customers who had placed a pre-order for this helmet and have been waiting patiently.

We will even pay for the shipping of the Vader helmet to you! (For our international customers, this does NOT include any duties and taxes levied by your country. This will remain your responsibility)

I'm a bit surprised they're offering the Vader helmet for free. I obviously would have preferred having my biker helmet a year ago, but as far as apologizes go this is a step in the right direction.

Yeah, no impressed. For international customers EFX should have offered free shipping instead of this helmet if buyers wanted. But I guess they would have to give me 2-3 PCR Vader helmets to cover for their greedy shipping collaborators international fees LOL...I already have Legend Vader (and used to have LE too) no need for another ANH Vader lid. Unless EFX declares value 0 for the package (but then not sure how it will be insured when shipped), why would I need to pay taxes for this PCR helmet I don't want? EFX is full of surprises, but most of them are unwanted surprises...

Ok, free Vader helmet, but the biker scouts are basically back to square one? I feel really bad for you guys. I would be so frustrated. What a joke.

I hear you, Keith. I really hate buying anything made in China and avoid it at all costs unless there's no alternative.

Well, we might not be at square one, but it looks like we're at square 1.5. I'm hoping - HOPING -for it to arrive by the end of the year. It truly sucks, but I'm in this long, & I ain't giving up now (even without the Vader helmet). I do appreciate the update email, & hope they turn their ship around & start sending them out more frequently, & more importantly - get their products out to us!
