Hey guys, so I've been comparing the 2 versions (normal and special edition) of this EFX Darth Vader PCR Helmet and still have questions about it. I hope someone can clarify some things for me:
Both helmets have these in common (based on the description on the EFX website):
Master patterns created from the original molds made from a screen used helmet made by Rick Baker in 1977 that are in the Lucasfilm archives
Original asymmetric sculpted geometry
High quality ABS/metal construction
Full scale, 1:1
Accurate 2 piece construction
Bubble lenses
Machined aluminum tusks
Metal mouth and chin grills
Certificate of Authenticity
These are the differences:
Normal edition is $299, special edition is $329
The following points are found under the special edition but not in the normal edition:
Available to order online August, 2016
DIRECT EXCLUSIVE!
Screen accurate two tone black and hand painted gun metal paint scheme of face mask
My questions are:
1. Does it mean that the normal edition won't have a two tone pattern on the paint scheme?
2. The ones listed on Amazon and eBay are the normal edition versions?
3. Is it safe to order the special edition version from the EFX website (for pick up at SDCC)?
Thanks so much guys!
