New MR props and mini helmets

wtf is this crap?

sorry im in the always defend MR corner... but seriously... WTF? :confused those DO look just like them. :(



but ahh... whats that i see beyond that?

YODA FX.............1

and it IS actually small one handed the blades even a bit smaller... :eek

why oh why cant i just have a obi ep1 or 2?

huh?

Amy?

barry?

WHY?????

without a doubt the COOLEST hilt in the PT, and im sure if you can fit FX guts in that little yoda hilt, you could make a correctly sized obi.

qui gon would be a bit trickier... but come on... OBI....

It is all about making $$$ and is a great avenue for them, the helmets would go great with there 45 scaled miniatures.

Besides, they are bringing out the much coveted and wanted Riddel TIE pilot helmet.

Yes, I finally get my .45 TIE, TK, and X-Wings. :) Already have the others.
 
I don't like the vader but the rest are cool. The vader just seems out of proportion (plus I'm partial to the ANH which this is most definitely not).

Are they ever going to release the .45 Qui-Gon?

FINALLY. Now I can get the TIE and have a complete set. Whoo Hoo.
 
Hmmm...

<div class='quotetop'></div>
"New and Improved" Riddell Helmets:
Stormtrooper Helmet
X-Wing Helmet

New Designs:
Clone Trooper Helmet
TIE Fighter Helmet[/b]

Wonder what will be "improved" on the Stormy? Just another way to get the people that already have all five Riddells to buy a new one?

Doubt very seriously they'll be going for $29.99 :lol
 
If these are the same ones on Forbidden Planet's website http://www.forbiddenplanet.com/starwars.shtml
then the TIE pilot has hoses the stormtrooper looks ANH and much cooler and there is a rebel fleet pilot.

They are listed at £6.29

There are no Fett mini helmets and it is listed as a set of 6 so with ST, TIE, Vader, RFT, C3PO and Xwing looks like no Fett.

Are these the same mini helmets? The ones shown don't have a manufacturers name next to them.

Cheers Chris.
 
MR's .45 product line holds no interest for me. :thumbsdown


The Yoda FX I like. Depending on the price I might pick that up. I do have to agree with Oldken: What's the hold up on the EpI Obi FX? I had hoped that it would be next now that Maul's is out.
 
I hope that vader is just a prototype and that they are working on a better one.I also hope they will not be that expensive hopefuly they will be less then what riddell charged.

Im not saying anything bad about the vader it would be nice to see a more accurate version of it.

I really liked the Riddel helmets but figured that out too late. Once I decided I wanted some they were discontinued products.

I think this is a great idea for MR and a neat way to supplement their scaled offerings.

THUMBS UP.

Nope, these are very cheap and much smaller than the .45 Riddells from what I've seen of them. Definately not the same thing that MR will be selling.
 
The tiny ones are the ones made by TOMY, they are about the size of a 12" action figures head.
 
I'm sort of disapointed to see MR expanding their non replica line. This stuff doesn't ineterst me at all. I mean the riddle helmets are still fairly common, and to re-release a bunch of helmet that you can still find on e-bay for relatively cheap doesn't make alot of sense to me.
