I had a catch up with Disney Licensing a couple of days ago. They understand the anger and are genuinely trying to press EFX into resolving this. it looks to me like EFX is showing Disney that they are making "progress" (albeit at a snails pace) but that the manufacturering issues of working with ABS are what’s now holding them back.
Had any of us been in the room when this conversation took place, then I’m sure we would have volunteered something like "so why the fu@@ didn’t you realise this 4 years ago Bryan?" - but there you go! At least Disney are trying to keep the pressure on.
Anyway, I doubt we'll hear anything meaningful on a likely release until end Aug/early Sept

And yet RS props and people making kits in their garage have been able to crack the mystery of ABS vacforming for years now. Seriously, these guys every day sound more and more like a fly-by-night company.

I’m still at sdcc and trying to get better images of the screen used Scout trooper helmet on display at profiles in history.
Here’s a shot I got as much as the back as I could. It appears to have 7 vents
The scouthelmets had different amounts of vents.You can see this also on screen.It would be interesting to find out WHY.
Was it perhaps a way to show the actors and stuntmen whats an hero and whats a stunthelmet?On screen its hard to say whats stunt and whats hero when you see only a fast shot from the back.
