When I get home this evening I should have a new Master Replicas item waiting for me. Been a long wait for this one! :trooper
Good for you Rico, an early christmas gift for you. :vaderxmas I look forward to hearing what it is
The 1:1 Stormie helmet! Finally!
Yep! Got my helmet last night. I really like it. I'm not an expert on these by any means but it looks very well done to me. Lenses are a dark green shade. Got # 135. Cool print included too. The print is numbered the same edition number as the helmet. Some fairly quick pics below. Happy to have this in my collection! :troopersmile

Looks Fantastic Rico, kicking myself for not getting one.
Hmmm, symetrical, ear pieces all wrong, too many teeth, incorrect trapazoid sticker, brow line too thick......Not screen accurate!!!!!
I just wanted to give you the RPF review from Gino! LOL!!! :roflmao
It looks awesome, bro! :trooper :trooper :trooper :trooper
Frankly, don't care about screen accurate. As far as I know there were several versions made of this for the films. I think it looks pretty dang nice!
Rico,
That looks really nice. Were I to add another trooper helmet to my collection, that'd be the one.
I'd love to see a better shot of the print if you take more photos.

Agree x10, I just love all the endless trivial debating about Stormie helmets on the RPF. :)
Probably get the print framed at some point. How many trooper helmets do you have pickard? Love to see some pictures. This is my first and only Stormtrooper helmet.
Very slick looking piece! So, how does it fit?

Just one lonely 212th Star Corps Clonetrooper helmet, the one we all got during that great sale this summer. :)
I'm probably not going to get any more troopers, but I'd like to get a Luke X-Wing helmet or a royal guard helmet some day.
Got to restrain myself, though, seeing great pics like what you posted above.
Congrats on yet another great piece added to your ridiculously impressive collection.

Their attention to detail is impressive, but it goes beyond what even the fairly obsessive fan like myself would care about. That's a stormtrooper helmet!
It's like the Ent-D from the final scene of Enterprise. It didn't match up exactly to any one version seen during TNG. Gabe took the better bits of the different shooting models. But there was no doubt that we were watching Picard's Enterprise one last time.
