Utapau Clone Trooper Helmet - Great Deal

Dan M · September 02, 2007, 07:00:21 PM

You get $200 off with coupon code "FRM212"

Even better, if you are a Master Replicas collector's society member the total comes to $159.10 since the 10% does apply and you get free shipping. There are said to be less than 50 in stock, and that was a few hours ago.

Here's the site for the helmet: http://masterreplicas.com//store/star_wars/helmets/8717/

I'm so excited; I never was going to be able to afford (or at least be able to justify) getting one of these for $400.

Order placed! Too good to pass up!!

What a great deal! I've spent my budget this month or I'd be all over it.

This will be my first helmet from MR. Since the Stormtrooper and Gree have to yet to ship. $159 instead of $400 was just too good to say no to.

I feel lucky, because I didn't just get the random deal that was on sale. If I could've chosen from all the MR helmets, this is the one I'd have picked. After all, the 212th were Obi-Wan's boys until Order 66.

I had to pull the trigger on this, just too good a deal. Now on to find enough to sell on eBay to cover my purchase!

Yeah, I need to get some stuff up for sale before it arrives, just in case my wife objects to all my recent purchases. :)

I shouldn't have spent that much money after just buying the GG Slave Leia statue, but that deal isn't going to be there ever again.

Dan M · September 05, 2007, 03:15:18 PM

This arrived today. Wow!!!

Rico · September 05, 2007, 04:13:29 PM

Glad to hear it. Mine has shipped now too.

Tatooine_Todd · September 06, 2007, 03:27:43 PM

Mine hits tomorrow!

Rico · September 07, 2007, 02:28:11 PM

Just opened mine up. This thing is beautiful. Got # 695 of 1000. Couple of quick pics below:

I have this helmet is very well made. What a great deal

Dan M · September 07, 2007, 03:19:03 PM

I got 626.

Rico, do you plan to put it in a case? I don't think dust will be kind to it.

However, it's too wide and too tall to fit into a football helmet case, especially with the stand.

Rico · September 07, 2007, 03:37:01 PM

I will eventually put it in a case. Dust is the enemy of a collectors. If you are looking for some nice custom cases try here: http://store.casesforcollectibles.com/index.html

Also, IKEA has some nice case stuff I've been using a lot!

That is a really Nice Helmet, Congrats to all of you on getting it. If I did not spend so much already this month I would have gotten it.
