eFx's Mandalorian Helmet

[DinDjarin]

First thing I noticed is that the visor doesn't come all the way down...?
...unless it's just a weird angle, but the real visor almost touches the bottom of the two points.

Your name implies you like the character.... your attention to the actual costume does not. The visor is correctly installed.

That's exactly why I added "unless it's just a weird angle, but the real visor **almost**touches the bottom of the two points." Notice the use of the word ALMOST. I'm sure eFX got it right, but the picture looks a little wonky.

As for the picture, it looks to be the white of the Styrofoam that can be seen through the visor that throws it off.

That being said...no need to call someone out for what you might think they have researched and/or their attention to detail.

Awesome news

The real visor is at least 1 cm above the tip of the mandibles. Thats far from almost touching. 1 mm is almost touching. It looks just fine.

Cloudy with a chance of snarky this morning, I see...lol

I honestly think it’s just the photos. The studio photos they’ve shared are terribly lit. The video that chronicle did of the unboxing of the final sample shows very nicely.

Here's the video if anyone hasn't seen it.

Screen grab from the unboxing. This clearly shows the close proximity to the bottom of the mandibles. Looks much better

It looks like the ears and the back of the helmet are completely different colors than the main helmet?

Quick grab from episode 2 shows two different colors on the earpieces and back vent. Good eye.

...As for the name...it has 0% to do with my liking the character or attention to detail and 100% to do with the name wasn't taken, so I took it.

They really needed to fix the white balance on these photos. Ugh! Just atrocious.

Without seeing the actual helmet, it's tough to match the helmet color, but this should give you a better idea...

I couldn't work on the front facing image. That was all kinds of messed up.

well there must be more then 1 helmet on the show as this resembles the d23 helmet in the visor area which sits much higher then that

Of course there is. All you have to do is look at the vertical visor gap. Aka. Stunt vs. Hero.

Narrow

vs. Wide - like REALLY wide...

Congratulations… That has to be super exciting. Praying that I get an email soon as well.

I got the same email today as well. I ordered two helmets. First helmet was on Oct. 7 & the other on Nov.14. Hope this helps to all who reserved one.
