Guys this helmet appears to be the spitting image of the MRCE which came out a while back, is this just an MRCE done in black then?
I have four MRCE's.....don't ask. But yeah, I had plans to alter a couple of em. I found the undercut at the chin was missing more material than I liked with the CE's, and aside from the symetry, the joint and mold lines, and Frankenstein monster com covers, I thought it was a pretty cool helmet as far as LFL licensed products are concerned. The CE's started out high in price but I understand after the hype they are now down around $96.00? I just don't see the EFX being worth the extra $$$$ unless these are painted and not formed in gloss plastic. But then the mold lines and seams would've been dealt with if paint were the case. So if EFX and CE consist of the same pieces and parts but in a different colors why the extreme jump in price? Were they cheaper in the beginning?
Finally........ Thanks Izzi for the great review. It is always good to see comparison photo's of the different buckets together. The EFX Shadow even with it's obvious flaws where accuracy are concerned, is a nice looking alternative to the FX lid.
