Picked up the helmet today (my Pumpkin Bomb is expected later this week).
It's really nicely done and has a super clean finish. The metallic green paint is gorgeous, though the lack of any colour shift is a bit of a bummer. There's a heap of screws on the inside so I think it will easily disassemble to paint up. The gold finish on the eye's is really nice, but I can see that it would be really fragile, so care should be taken if anyone does a repaint.
I'm a little surprised it doesn't have any AV functionality but ultimately the batteries are removed for display anyway.
The stand is ... pretty lacklustre. It leaves the mask's painted chin resting on the shelf, rather than elevating the whole thing, so I can see scratches or wear being a risk. I'm not that bothered by the minor sculpt differences between the 2002 and 2021 versions - it's still iconic and instantly recognisable.
Most importantly, it's absolutely worth the price they're charging. If you can get it on a sale price? Absolutely!
I'm kind of more excited for the pumpkin bomb. I started 3D printing one a few months ago but got stalled trying to work out the lights and sounds. For the price they're charging for this, I think I'm going to order a second one for a proper display. Agree they shouldn't have the Goblin laugh on all modes, but it is what it is. Hopefully not too hard to disassemble or at least mask off for painting.
I really love these random collectables that pop up out of the blue. They're so much fun.
