I don't think efxs will be ever.
Not as good as is not the problem.

WOO-HOO!!! Mine arrived today!!! Finally, after all these years, it's nice to finally have a truly screen accurate Biker Scout helmet in my collection.

Oh, I'm sorry. You all thought I was talking about eFX? Nope. Still waiting on my Legend from them :lol
Disappointing to hear that they're still having issues like this. I had a similar issue with my Scout (I asked for Weathered, rejected the weathering when they sent pics for approval, asked for them to just use the weathering pattern that ALL of the Weathered helmets I've seen have had, I was told this was no problem, but a couple days later I was sent the helmet I had rejected with no changes having been made.)I originally ordered mine without weathering, but when I saw how good the weathering they were doing looked, I changed mine to weathered last August. I was told "no problem", & every email after that said I was getting weathered...... & this is what showed up. & you know what? I'm fine with it. It's here, it looks great, nothing's broke, I'm done.

Glad you're happy with yours I can confirm that the initial annoyance I felt over the experience has faded significantly with time.
Also, were you in Wave 2? Absolutely crazy that Wave 1 went out in August, and in March of the next year they're just getting through Wave 2...
I think in the end the RS weathered version will have been done much better than efX. I chose poorly.
How many waves were there for the RS biker scout helmet? I just emailed them the other day asking about one of these and they said they were not taking any further orders at this time until they fulfill the orders they are presently working on. Just curious how long I may have to wait...

I spoke with someone there about that. He didnt have a date, but said molds were being made that would then have to be approved before they could move to production. I guess the company in China a lot of people were using went bankrupt and there are very few other factories in China that meet Disney's standards as far as what sort of factories can be used to produce their officially licensed products.
What?!
It's virtually started from scratch again?!!!!
This is without comparison, the most embarrassingly handled product, I have ever had the misfortune of witnessing.
Somebody, please, put eFX out of it's misery.

This sounds like a strait up lie. That is the exact same respons they gave last year. What are the odds that two factories working on the scout goes bankrupt. I bet the model on display is the same one from last year and the year before.
