I'm sure that this question has already been asked ad nauseum in other threads in the past before, but since I'm thinking about buying a Vader helmet as my next major purchase, can someone who is more versed in the minutia of Vader helmets and perhaps owns two (or possibly all three) of the helmets that I'm contemplating tell me which one is "the best" or whether it's all completely subjective.
The run-down of each as I understand it are:
1) eFX Legend Vader ANH - has direct lineage from the original molds apparently
2) Brian Muir Ultimate Edition - from the maker himself!! but an 'interpretation' that won't match anything that was ever seen on screen
3) The Quasimodo - each one handcrafted and hand painted
I also realize that there's a huge disparity in terms of cost between these three helmets and that's not necessarily a factor. I just don't want to pick one and have buyer's remorse because I "should have gotten one of the others..."
Can anyone speak to any of these who actually owns one (or more) of these helmets?
