eFX SCOUT TROOPER HELMET LEGEND EDITION!!

[Deedzy]

I thought there were some news about the helmet. Nothing to see here alas, move along...

Par for the course at the moment Sergiu? Man these are dry times to be a prop collector.

 

[jkno]

They are indeed. I really hope eFX gets on their feet and release something soon. It took like forever since I got their awesome TIE Fighter.

Hm, 699 ... oh dear

 

[DarthChrisDK]

Oh, didn't expect to hear about this piece for at least a year more. 700 isn't too bad. I might have to get this!

Yeah that's what I'm thinking.

As I stated years ago, the Limited Editions will reach Legend prices.

I'm going to take a minute to pat myself on the back....

The preorder date is one thing but when is the expected delivery dates? With efx they could sit on your money for 2 years before delivering.

From their HP.

I hope they are targeting 2014 ^^

Did something change? I thought they started taking preorders when the product was en route?

 

[Dr Lexus]

Love eFX stuff and it's the Scout, so mighty tempting, but for us Brits it's a pricey endeavour, what's the EX on this and will there be a cheaper version down the line like with the regular Storm Trooper buckets?

 

[space ace]

I'm guessing since it is a limited edition, retailers will be carrying this as well? If so,you can normally save a few bucks when ordering from an on line shop.

 

[Black Label Society]

Hmmm.....this is an interesting tactic......

They start POs once they have a fair amount of them done and it looks like they'll be enroute in a month or so. From what I remember, it worked fairly well for their last product.

 

[Vader AL]

Preorder is July 8th. Expected shipping is September/October so it'll be a few months but not too bad unless there are delays.

 

[cstojano]

Any easy way to explain the difference between the Legend and Limited series toa prop noob? Sounds like Legend is higher end?

 

[Gino]

Details on the Legend edition will be coming soon.

 

[Hollywood]

Whats the difference again between LE and Legend?

Legend is identical to the screen used?

 

[Vader AL]

Is efx done with making ship replicas? Seems like there's a hungry customer base out there for those.

 

[Gino]

Like I said we'll be making an announcement regarding the Legend version in the coming weeks.

@Vader AL
We are currently working on a Gold Leader Y-Wing.

I get that.........my questions was how does EFX define the difference. If I recall correctly with Vader the difference was that LE was a cleaned up version (bumps/ paint) and the Legend was the "screen used identical" version.

I would assume that with this release if there are two versions under the same banner that the same rules would apply between LE and Legend.

If I am wrong on the definitions than please enlighten me.
