eFX Darth Vader A NEW HOPE Helmet!

[mustang33guy]

Ok so I bought a paper towel holder at Bed Bath and Beyond and must say helmet presents and sits must better now. Had to sculpt a piece of foam and place it on top to keep it centered and not bobble but seems like it's stable now.

I have it sitting stable so I don't wanna jinx it and touch it lol but here is the link to the one I bought and a picture of it if that helps! Had to add about a 1 inch piece of foam to build it up to keep it from rocking but that's cheap. It's a nice stand though!





Sorry link won't attach but it's the Umbra Vine Paper Towel Holder in Nickel on the BBandB website


Edit: Ok got it to work now lol

Great pics, Mustang33guy!

My eFX Vader and Stormtrooper helmets arrived yesterday and they are truly impressive.

Still in their respective boxes until I obtain the helmet stands for each.

I feel that these helmets are a slippery slope...

Yes I just has a block of foam like 4x4 and bored a hole a little smaller than the head of the towel holder. That way it has a snug fit. Added some Velcro on the inside for extra support. Could glue it too but I wanted something a little less permanent in case I think of a better idea but so far it works pretty well.

lol that's great! Be sure to post some pics when you get them displayed! I haven't seen the Stormtrooper mask in person but if its anything like Vader I'm sure its top notch. I contemplated getting the Black Series Stormtrooper mask as I've heard good things from people about that one. And yes I agree I was worried about where to display just this one helmet haha. I think getting an X Wing Fighter Pilot Helmet would be boss also.

Here's some pics in my cabinet (Still a work in progress):

Helmet looks great Mustang33guy! What kind of cabinet is that?

Thanks! Its an IKEA Besta 75" Frame in Walnut Effect Light Gray with (3) SINDVIK Glass Doors in the same color. Also added (1) matching wood shelf on bottom tier and (2) 6" glass shelves on middle and top tiers.

Darth coys, I love that aluminum stand for Vader. Matches up great. I'll definitely be on the lookout for something similar.
