Star Wars: Full Sized Stormtrooper Replica Helmet (UK Exclusive!)

Temporarily out of stock. This item will be dispatched as soon as it arrives.



im in the US as well
 
Its disappointing they had to cut the face in two across the frown in order to get round the production/moulding/undercut issue - but then for £60 its still not half bad. Especially when you compare it against its dorect competition, the Rubies and DP helmets.

4,000 of them were made so they're never going to be scarce - there'll also be a load available in the US.

Cheers

Any idea WHERE we will be able to get them over here (US). I want one of these for the collection...WAY nicer then the DP CA.
Thanks

I have to say i am very impressed with the quality its much better than i was expecting the weight feels good not flimsy or weak and the finish is great as well i see what you mean about the joints but they are hardly noticable i am not an expert by a long shot but for my purposes of display its 100% acceptable :)

IIRC there's a single exclusive US retailer who will be taking the helmet, along with Play in the UK of course. For the life of me I cant remember their name but I'll do some digging.

As you know MR's got to fulfill all orders by 31st March so no new retailer (or individual) can be added - however with over 4,000 made in China there are going to be plenty to go round. IMO, given the current (lack of) interest in SW I recon thats going to take a LOOOONG time to sell.

Its a shame they didn't construct the face as a single piece but the line doesn't seem too noticeable I suppose. For a low-end helmet imo its pretty impressive.

Cheers
