Anyone else catch that quick shot of Bobas POV looking out the helmet after escaping the Sarlacc, it was 100% the crooked, wonky visor of the OT helmet.

My mistake then, though it is slightly misleading as the pictures they show has the rangefinder attached, and it only states that the helmet casting is not included. I guess you only get one if you order the whole kit.

I had a nice surprise in the mail today, my RS metal ears arrived. They‘re beautiful, but there was no rangefinder topper parts included. I was under the impression that was included with the ears?

Some really awful news from RS, they had a fire in the studio. Video explaining.

What’s the general turnaround time for in stock orders at RS? I’m not one of those “I need this delivered yesterday” people, I know how to wait I’m just genuinely curious as this is my first order from RS. (the metal Fett ears).

I’ll add a question, was the original rangefinder “cover” made of plastic or metal?

Got mine yesterday, and I’m pretty impressed. The paint apps are excellently done for a mass produced helmet, they hold up really well even under close inspection. But it’s the metal ears that really make it, and the rangefinder makes such a satisfying click moving up and down. One thing I...

I’ve got one from the 2nd wave arriving tomorrow, I wonder if that’s been corrected.

Yeah, a 400.00 mass produced helmet will never compare with a 1500-2000.00 hand painted fiberglass/resin cast. But for that 400 you get a Fett with lineage, metal ears and pretty decent paint apps. I’d say worth it.
