NEW MR FETT HELMET PICS

[Spideyfett]

Thought since we did a mini photo shoot I would post new shots of the new Master Replicas Boba Fett Helmet.

Over all I think it's a great piece to have...very clean...and to me, is the "Idealized" version of what we've all come to love.

Thanks to Phillip Wise (from rebelscum.com) and Darthmiller for their help with the photo shoot.

...and please give me, Darthmiller, and Phillip Wise credit if you reuse these pictures.

Now on with the pics!!

Well....Spidey I must say that it was a awesome experience to open up this bad boy with you and Philip!!!

Cant wait to see the FPH comparison shots!!

I have to give credit to MR...they did a great job!!! However I wish they had used the ESB Hero helmet instead of the prepro bucket. I really think they could have nailed the HERO bucket.

I must admit that I will be getting one of these for myself!!

Great pics! I'm really looking forward to the "how to fix the wonky t-visor" tutorial thread.

Jason, seeing you with that helmet on, and the " ", the first thing that came to mind was that it almost looks like you're having a "Jar-Jar" moment there I could only imagine your numb tongue hanging out inside the helmet

Great shots of the MR !!!!! I'm very impressed with this helmet ! I can't wait to get mine now !!!!

What is the image on the rangefinder?

I'm curious about this as well ?

I am as well. Would really like to hear why MR purposely did that; they obviously could have corrected it.

'm really looking forward to the "how to fix the wonky t-visor" tutorial thread.

 

[fettpride]

It should be a REAL easy fix. However, the visor that is shipped with the helmet would probably have to be replaced. As I understand it, the MR visor is paper thin anyway. so no big loss

I'd b happy to post "my" solution to this once I get mine.

Agreed ! And I think the blue background was a PERFECT choice for this too !!

Looks like I was beaten to the line with the 'how do you fix the wonky visor' question, is the taper inherent to the cast or has it been installed wonky? That make sense? Great photos bro!!

 

[CaptJono]

I noticed in one of the pictures (that I've been pouring over, THANKS!) the RF top is missing the bottom clear piece, is that how the batteries are replaced?

 

[Benkenove]

This is a real real amazing HELMET !!! My god, there is no doubt that this is the very BEST work that MR has done... and well, after all, the best farewell that they could have done... with their master piece...!!!

HATS OFF FOR YOU MR !!!

I was thinking (about 1 year ago), to get 1 to repaint it, but damned it, is so beautifull that makes me doubt !!! .

FP, about the mod, please post all the info you can (off course, when you can), I'm really interesting in seeing how it can be done !!! (without actually messing the helmet ).

Great pics and comparison, btw.

Thanks bro...and yes the PP3 taper was scanned..

good catch...and you're 100% right.
you have to have the worlds smallest screw driver to get that sucker open too..
But once the batteries are in the RF bottom peice just clips on...that bottom peice is really just a cheaply molded peice of plastic....but it looks good once installed.

Cool

 

[Wolfi]

Looks really good so far. Can you please tell me the box dinemsions?

thanx in advance

 

[TK1455]

Awesome pics! I'm really impressed with the MR. The taper didn't bother me too much at first, but seeing it side by side with FP's beauty in the other thread I think it's something I'll be looking at fixing as well. All and all a beautiful bucket!

Too bad no interior photos.
