I have been waiting for this for quite some time. A bit more then I was hoping for, but I am going to get one. I have been put on a few extra shifts of oncall at work, so hopefully that should help pay for this.

Cool Jeff.  Please send in a little review and post back here when you get it.  I probably would have done about $400ish - but 600,.......

Sure thing Rico, Sounds like it will be shipping in December, that is a tough month. It has been on my radar for so long, I don't want to pass it up, but agree, I was hoping it would have been more around the 400 range. Just makes me wonder how much the Cylon helmet will be, if they are still working on it.

[Bryancd]

Now we need to get you a blaster! :) I love mine and I know Rich Coyle is still doing a run.

[jedijeff]

Yeah, I should really consider getting a blaster. Drop me a PM  Bryan as I would be interested to find out what you paid for yours.

Today my Battlestar Galactica Original Series Viper Helmet came in. I have to say I am very happy with it. It is a simple helmet, but they did a great job on it. I was on the fence for awhile and close to cancelling the order since it was taking so long, but happy to have it now. I got number 126 of 500. It also came with Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedicts Autographs.

Very, Very cool!

[Rico]

That's really cool Jeff.  Looks like they did a great job with it.

I take my hat off to you.  Very nice.

[Bryancd]

GREAT purchase, Jeff. I saw this announced and though it looked beautiful and it came out great. We need a pic of you wearing it! Save up another few hundred and I can hook you up with a Coyle BSG Blaster pulled from an actual stunt gun with sound and lights! :)

That is so awesome!
