Damn, $417 for a kit? Wow. Sticker shock.

I ordered the kit from RS on February 13th and it arrived on February 20th, yesterday. ONE WEEK TURNAROUND.
Made like the originals and with the added fun of getting to assemble it myself, which I prefer.
You pay for 5 pieces of plastic. LOL I understand the game though. I just wish there were more choices.
I didn't receive that email and I pre-ordered the legend edition. Is this only for the limited edition orders?
RS decided it wasn't worth it for them to sell completed Scout helmets themselves anymore, so being interested in making them for another company seems unlikely unless the price would be much higher.Assuming EFX has any cash at all, it would be a cheaper and faster solution for EFX to subcontract RS to make and finish all of the outstanding scout trooper helmets, upgrade everyone to a "Legend" edition, send a partial refund for the difference, and then get out of the scout trooper business, rather than to try to get the same quality results from whatever factories they're working with now. No need to even make a fiberglass version at this point.
So there's a vendor on ebay selling the helmets, saying that they should be arriving on March 18th. It's not much but hopefully it does mean that retailers are getting their hands on it.
