None of them should be this way, seems totally unacceptable, I'm sure its not gonna be easy getting a refund but I'll let you all know how it goes, what a dissapointmentNot all of them are that way.

Yikes. Mine has a slight flaw in the lines, but nothing like thatHere's a top view of the EFX helmet. Someone please tell me this was intentional, it looks like a fourth grader tried making straight lines...

Man I'm getting nervous seeing these crooked mandibles and wonky helmet lines.... I hope EFX either refunds you both or sends a replacement. Definitely keep us posted. craigjohn jwieczorek
I received a return shipping label from EFX last Friday evening. I just dropped the helmet off to ship back to EFX about 15 minutes ago.
I asked Bryon to personally pick me out a good copy. We'll see how it goes.
...Will let you know how this turns out.
I don't really understand how they are going to send you a new one when they are sold out. Doesn't that mean they're just going to pass off your original helmet on someone else?I received a return shipping label from EFX last Friday evening. I just dropped the helmet off to ship back to EFX about 15 minutes ago.

Yeah, it looks like it has some real "orange peel" in areas.it really needs the alumaluster paint job, looks too much like spray paint
Hmm, your probably right. Yeah, the anovos helmet paint job definitely leaves a lot to be desired.If you want to see orange peel, look at some of the anovos helmets. I haven't seen any orange peel on any of the EFX helmets posted online at all. It looks like a much thinner paint than whatever anovos is using and than alumaluster. I think its just the weathering being applied with a sponge or something porous thats making you think its orange peel.
Whatever the case im excited to hopefully get my efx maybe next week? I think my Anovos order is due to arrive sometime in 2023?Hmm, your probably right. Yeah, the anovos helmet paint job definitely leaves a lot to be desired.
Beautiful photos man.I received my EFX yesterday, and popped off some quick pics (also posted on the RPF, the Prop Den, FB Cargo Hold, FB SW Helmet Hunters, FB Master Replicas group).
Photos with the bounce card. Give this thing some light, and it looks beautiful. Put it in a room without a good direct light source, and it looks kinda....dark. I'd love to see what the actual helmet would like compared to this EFX paint job.

*****This was my little studio set-up - need the bounce card to kick some light to the right side of the helmet. *****
