Who is PCR? Is this a different company and efx is supplying the helmets to them?
New pictures of this just went up. Gino was quoted as saying this helmet like the scout trooper is "still a beautiful helmet regardless of what I would consider to be minor issues".

I always thought the PCR name was misleading.
The Stormtrooper PCR helmet isn't precission cast from anything we saw on screen. It is significantly modified and cleaned up.
The Vader is closer, but there still needed to be some modifications to allow for injection molding.
To me Precision Cast implies an exact copy of an original, not a cheaper alternative to more expensive and accurate replicas.

They're a cheaper alternative for those who 1) can't afford a legend (at secondary market rates) 2) Don't want the Anovos lid or 3) Just want a cheap Vader to display. Call them what you want.
Knowing there (currently) is a painful 195 page thread about the Scout Helmet, would anyone really "pre order" from EFX again? Especially knowing in 10 years you may be forced to pay an additional $400-500 in shipping for an item with crappy production flaws.
I’m following rnbuda lead, and I have a fiberglass cast (MDF) being painted up by a Fett artisan, and it will be far better than any mass produced helmet.
Why wait? Go out and get your Fett helmet now. Go spend your money and support these small talented highly respected Fett artisans who know their craft. There are some great ones out there: Nick, Alex, Eric, Robert, and I know I’m missing several others. They’re legit, and they deliver.
I´m really interested in a great Boba Helmet(TESB Version).But have no clue who´s the best.
