That thumbnail pic looks like you're about to watch Star Wars Battlefront.

just curious, is anyone else having a hard time getting a response from Anovos. I have been trying to return a helmet since December, been told I would receive shipping label but have yet to receive anything. I have called, emailed and opened a ticket with them with very sporadic responses claiming I am on the top of their list but still no help from them. Anyone else have the same experience? I am a little concerned at the lack of customer service as I have pre-ordered several other helmets with them.

I would wear that white cape on Ben Mendelsohn's character in every day life and no one would be able to stop me.

I know I've mentioned a few times over the years that I'm so ready for capes to be in style. I'd wear one now, but I don't feel like ending up being an Internet meme

Hey gang, just a quick question.

For those of you who purchased a helmet from Anovo before, do they come with a stand? I only want to display them instead of putting them on.

And also, if anyone has a ANOVO discount code they could hook me up with, that would be awesome

Thanks!!!

 

[Centurion]

No stands from Anovos that I'm aware of.
I haven't checked recently to see if they at least offer them as an accessory. If not, they should.

 

[jkno]

Anovos doesn't make stands. You need to outsource them from elsewhere. You can also use paper towel holders

Thanks for the responses guys!

What are your opinions on ANOVO helmets? It seems like they are a digital scan of the actual prop used in the movies (At least that's what I read on the description of Vader helmet).

The Anovos helmets are decent. They're trying to bring the most accurate and wearable lids to the market at a cheaper price. They've introduced their 'Premiere' line which uses better materials, but doesn't necessarily translate into better accuracy.

Anovos themselves work at a sloths pace. Just check this out and you'll get a better idea...

As Centurion said above they are nice, but not as accurate as advised. Still very nice helmets and armors, and besides that, they are licensed.

Thank you Centurion and JKNO.

I guess I'll only pick up the Kylo Ren helmet from them then. As for Vader's helmet is there any recommendation?

If you like ANH Vader you can go for EFX Legend or LE (great helmets) or the upcoming EFX Precision Cast (cheaper but still ok). Anovos which is also licensed is nice but I think it will be less accurate than advertised. In the fan made world there are a few of the most accurate helmets you can get but those are rare as hen teeth: SL ANH or TM ESB. But you can also get very cool unlicensed helmets like Quasimodo or Darth Ugly - see RPF or Prop Den for more details

Thoughts on the Standard Line Kylo Ren helmet? I think they are using the exact same pictures as the Premier Line, so it is hard to judge how it will compare...

 

[Fastball Special]

They're gonna be at a Mega con. I'm going to take all the photos I can

 

[BurningRage]

I'm still waiting for my OT Stormtrooper helmet from EE.

Yes! Looking forward to your pics.

Anybody picking up the FO armor? Over 2 grand for the kit and 7 grand for the ensemble. Too much for me unfortunately.

$7000? LOL For that price I can get a lot of things prop relate or not. I'm curious how much would the EFX Stormtrooper armor cost, if ever released, seeing how much an open edition armor goes for...
