So i was trolling through Etsy for a good cast of the esb fett helmet and came upon the mans page. Does anyone know if he is safe to order from or if someone has bought and used his products?

I bought one from the same seller on eBay, not sure if I received a bad pull or what, but if you're looking for a 501st quality helmet, I would recommend looking elsewhere. If you're looking for something that is somewhat similar in appearance to a Fett helmet without needing accuracy, it would be OK for that. I just received an animefan helmet yesterday, excellent quality.

Whatever you received was definitely a bad pull based on your pictures. The question is whether it is representative of every pull. The etsy/ebay pictures tend to suggest that it is partially because extra material has been added during the recast process to make the helmet bigger and that has compromised the shape. The earpiece on yours was badly deformed and for me that raises questions as to what state the original donor helmet or mould was in.

I didn't see mention of negative reviews. Someone stated they thought you may have been banned from other forums. You're saying you haven't so it's been cleared up. Case closed.
 
From an objective point of view on the helmets and your 200+ positive reviews, is it possible the purchaser doesn't know any better? I mean it's eBay. Looking at the pictures of your casts on Etsy and eBay you can see the deformities in the ears, key slots, the rear portion of where the cheeks would be painted red, and at least along the band that runs the rear portion of the helmet and behind the ears.

I understand the camaraderie that's supposed to take place on the boards and backing goodhearted individuals work here but putting it apples to apples against other casts here for just about 30 dollars more you can get an Animefan Budget whose quality far exceeds that of this helmet... newcomers money is better spent on something like that rather than where they'd use the time and energy equivalent of money they saved on your cast fixing it. And in some parts they can't, like the deformities mentioned above.
