For what it’s worth, my EFX was paired with some AD armor and approved by 501st with no mods.

After ten troops, I have added fans and padding. The light weight makes it a perfect trooping helmet as far as I am concerned.

The padding is just black pool noodle...

One of the best parts is that I bought it second hand on Craigslist for 220$ (no box)

The helmet sure is the best bang for the buck when it comes to budget builds. No other helmet out there is as accurate for $300.

Brian Muir was channeling Da Vinci with that sculpt... just epic.

Well shipping wasn't free, but the promo wiped it out almost. Plus it was a little cheaper than I thought as the US dollar is 1 US to 1.35 Au. Promo I found was: geetroit. Had to register to use it though

Damn that code does not work for me

Darn, maybe they ended it. It was just: geetroit

Don't think there was any capitals letters, really simple

Hell yeah I just ordered it from Brian toys, it ended up being the same as Popcultcha if I used the geetroit code and it worked. Im so stoked, I plan on brushing on gunmetal to create the weathered brushed look but I have no idea what color to use.
