So in a odd twist (if you look up my past post about clone trooper helmet I once owned, you'll know what I mean) I ended up purchasing a MR Clone Trooper helmet to replace the one I had sold before. I'm adding a select few pieces back into my collection after regretting selling them and thought this would go perfect next to the upcoming Hero eFX stormie helmet.
I purchased the helmet from a fellow prop collector from another board and was excited to get it, however once receiving it, the excitement diminished. The helmet appears to have significantly large yellowed areas on the helmet where the finish of the paint actually slightly changes. I am not sure if this was from the factory or what, but just wanted to check what you guys thought? I do wear glasses so I'm hoping I am not going blind in the areas that are yellowed. Aside from that the helmet is undamaged but the yellowed areas really ruin the look, even in my kitchen where half the lights are burnt out.
The areas I circled in red are the main yellowed spots and after owning one of these helmets in the past, I can certainly tell the difference in one solid color to actual spotty discoloration. Let me know if you guys think I'm going crazy or something, I don't want to make something out of nothing, but I feel like I paid for something and got something I did not expect.
