RS Propmasters X-Wing Helmets

[TatooineMachine]

These are commissions not on a run infact most Xwings we do are on a commission basis if theres a particular helmet you want we'll paint it!

does this include lids like Wedge & Biggs?

Except if you want one of the signature editions. Those are limited and not available for all of the helmets.

We can still do them it just won't come with a signature edition plaque there just for the first 100 sold

yes we are still doing them

Hi SiMan
Any idea when Gold Leader sig edition will be released?

 

[gabe3666]

yes we are still doing them

Can I order a commissioned ANH Blast Shied Version? If so, please take my money!

 

[ggriffaw]

Questions about ordering can be sent to info@rspropmasters.com.

It may take a while for them to make a special commission between the production runs. I believe they are finishing up the Y Wing helmets now. At some point the Boushh and Gold Leader helmets will start. They appear to have plenty of things in the pipeline.

Just as ggriffaw says.

I asked Andrea at RS the same question mid 2019 but they were busy with the second run Wedge SE so had to decline. ANH hero and the ROTJ Y wing followed so that must have kept them pretty busy. Completely understandable.

If you contact them and they can do it, I would appreciate the heads up.

I read that they are making some refinements to the shield for the Blast Shield helmet. I assume there will be a run at some point.

They will also have a run of AT-AT helmets. Hopefully they modify the TIE pilot helmets based on the Hero faceplate.

I asked about ordering a commissioned Porkins helmet a few days ago. They said they can do it, but it will be a while before they can fit in the schedule.

I got the impression they like to make several of the same helmet at the same time. Maybe coordinating orders to have several of the same helmet ordered around the same time would help get them worked sooner. Is anyone interested in ordering commissioned rebel pilot helmets?

 

[TatooineMachine]

Wedge, Biggs, Perkins, or Red Leader I’d be interested in what your talking about. Good idea!

 

[SiMan]

I want to say yes but i'm not happy with the blast shield currently and i want it right before sending any out

I appreciate the attention to detail. Do you expect it to be listed on the website when it is ready?

It would be great if there was a way to know which helmets RS has enough details for to paint accurately.

 

[SiMan]

Gold leader will be coming soon I can't say exactly when but we are trying to build them presently so we can offer them in batches. We don't want to do a preorder on this wew want to have them in hand before release

 

[OldTraveller]

That's great news Simon. Can't wait to be able to get Gold Leader and add to my collection of RS pilot lids

What is the best way to find out when they are available to order? YouTube, check the website frequently, the newsletter email, etc.

In the past I have been a little frustrated with knowing when certain helmets are available to order. Some of the helmets sell out on the website, then later a few more become available to order, but you wouldn't know unless you just happen to click on the product page even though you previously saw that it said the item is no longer available.

 

[SiMan]

best place to keep an eye on is facebook and youtube, whenever somthing is going to be available these are the two places to find out.

One area of the RS Propmasters X-Wing helmets that I think could be better is the visor. The ones in the screen shots are more yellow/orange. The RS Props helmet visors are almost clear.

Also the shape seems a little off. In the screen shots you can see more of the curve at the left and right side of the visor. The RS Props visor seems wider compared to the screen used.

Will there be any chance in the future to purchase a Y wing helmet. Can you see yourselves doing another run? I’d love one of these, I just missed out on the initial run.

Yes, have to agree here, the RS visors need to have more yellow in them.

How would I go about ordering a non signature edition? Do you offer them, all the time, or will it be a future date when you make a batch?
