Pretty pricey for something that ain't all that accurate, but most people a) don't care and b) people, once again, don't care (for the most part).

I'm sure that gang of troopers will be picking these apart before any new members are accepted!

Helmets are listed as being available through MightyApe, starting in February. Hopefully other products will follow.

I just saw the prices on these,(Darth Vader) they are just over twice the price of the original US pre order release price :cry:
I must say that the first order storm trooper helmet looks good, not too badly priced either.

I have just sent through a query, hopefully they can do a layby on these helmets.

wow those are pretty pricey alright. There are a bunch of makers on the rpf/ fisd I bet you could get a great helmet over there for less. Maybe it's the pre-assembled part that people find attractive.

I have an unfinished anarchy design lid which is fiberglass and cost me $700.00 NZD landed, this was up to then one of the most accurate available that wasn't an EFX branded helmet.
I am still working on the rigging system for attaching the lid to the face plate.

Mine should be shipping this week. So very excited.

The fun part will be trying to on-ship it to NZ! :?

I have it on fairly good authority that an official NZ distributor/retailer for ANOVOS is supposedly going to be announced soon. Hopefully that means some choice for kiwi customers and some healthy competition on those prices! :D
