eFX Shadow Trooper Helmet pics and video

[ELP[501st]]

Just across this and thought I'd share.

 

Just in case there are other troopers who'd like to see what the helmet actually looks like.

 

 

And here are some pics, the same video and a review*:

*: it's not much of a review - just basic info, box size, etc.

A few details I've noticed:

 

- The lenses are flat and not bubble

- There are 3 holes (per side) in the frown with screeening on the back

- There are no ear screws

- It looks to have 12 or 13 tube stripes but they don't look to have any curve.

 

What did I miss?

 

 

Please correct me if I'm wrong as the pictures and the video aren't great.

Nice Find!!

 

Man, I can't wait to get my hands on that. That is so beautiful.

Two items I noticed are the flat-black crown and cheek indents versus the glossy ones

depicted in the above link. There are also the flat-black tube stripes on one and not

on the other.

I noticed the tube stripes as well but chalked that up to bad photography / poor lighting.

 

And yea the indents all look to be gloss - maybe I'll pick up a decal package for the MR helmet. I'm guessing that would fit. But I'll wait until I can have a look for myself.

Good point, no need in spending money prematurely. The decals should fit, but if they don't, Testors makes a dull coat spray that will significantly lessen the gloss.

i just got mine here is a pic compared to my mod MRCE

 

-yes lense are flat but heck its great to see through and i wore it on at night dim lighting and i can see pretty good

-three holes are on sides and there is screening there so it appears grayish from the outside and cant see through (note the MRCE dont have mesh in there atm)

-no ear screws yep none that i saw

-13 count but it did have some curve...some which the indents are gloss it seems

Is there a "need" to mod anything? I'm thinking of changing the screen, and screws are easy enough to add, but anything else?

 

Checking the tracking status of mine, shows it has hit at the top of the state and is in transit, should have it tomorrow I hope! Super excited!
