Hello all!
I am a new member here but I have been reading from this site for a few months now so I decided to sign up and join the rest of all you other Star Wars lovers out there! I have been reading up on the eFX Limited Edition Darth Vader helmet. I was really skeptical to buy one of these because of all the issues that I have read about them. But I have been wanting a ANH Vader lid for so long that I decided to take my chances,and I am very glad that I did!!
I looked for everything that has been noted before with the problems such as the paint rubs from the styrofoam,off center dome,cracks,sagging interior,scratches,etc. when I opened up the box I was SO happy that mine came issue free! This is such an awesome Helmet!!! I got #130 of 1000. I also have a Deluxe Don Post Empire Strikes Back Helmet that I bought back in 1996 to accompany this one. That helmet is #46 of supposedly 1000 but I read somewhere that Don Post lost licensing rights before they got all 1000 finished. Can anyone confirm that?
When I got the DP Deluxe Vader I had to send 3 of them back before I got a good one! Issues were warped tusks,over spray on the lenses,terrible paint jobs etc but they finally got it right! Since I'm new I'm not real sure how to post pictures but I'm fixing to give it a shot anyway lol BTW, I also bought the eFX Sandtrooper helmet. It looks WAY better than the advertisement pictures. I am a very happy customer eFX! Fantastic job and KUDOS!!! Here is #130! Let me know what you all think!!
