Hasbro Black Series BOBA FETT helmet

[BojTrek]

I feel that the Darth Vader from Hasbro Black Series is terrible or just off... it does not look like what I see in the movies. But, the Stormtrooper releases are pretty screen accurate to my eyes. I have the Stormtrooper and it is really close to what I see on the screen... I really like it. The Boba Fett is pretty good after watching recent unboxing and reviews, so it was pre-ordered 10 days ago.

But in my basic knowledge of domes/lids/helmets... whatever they should be called... the Darth Vader is not good enough to purchase from Hasbro... the rest are really pretty good.

It's pretty damn close considering the price difference.

Totally agree. The Stormtrooper and Boba are a really good options and alternatives for those who can’t get high end helmets.

I’m a lucky owner of a Quasi ESB and my Hasbro Stormtrooper is absolutely not ridiculous next to.

Ok for the real specialist they are not RS, MR or EFX helmets but they absolutely give the change for a minimal price.

Contrary to the Hasbro Vader that seems a kid helmet bought for Halloween and seems ridiculous next to the others BS helmets. Still not understand what happened with the Vader helmet. Maybe due to the specific larger size they undersized it to contain cost and space for shipping.

Thank you Aliaz and Jaycepticon for providing those great comparison pics.

I'm more than happy to display the Black Series Boba helmet with my RS Props and EFX helmets, once it arrives.

what stand do you guys recommend? I want to get one but preferably not one that would raise it up too high because I still want it to fit in a detolf.

 

[FlyAndFight]

It may not fit in a Detolf with any stand.

Yes it is! I also appreciate your commitment to symmetry in your collection. Glad there are others who need that!

Thanks for the info and awesome collection!!!

I imagine that the Vader helmet does not fit in the Detolf?

It does not. The dome is too big.

Very cool. I didn't know about these low stands. Will need to check them out. Thanks.

I had the EFX on order...cancelled it and changed order to Hasbro...sorry EFX..your too Fn slow. Hasbro is a real company that delivers.

For a Hasbro prop replica this thing is really impressive. I'm no expert, but I could easily misidentify it as something much more expensive. Hasbro did good here.

 

[Rondesmo]

Yes really a good job! For the price the amount of details is awesome.
When we see that they should do a 2.0 version of their Vader helmet which could be close to a EFX PCR, a real entry of level Vader helmet but with a true scale as their others helmets.

I got caught snoozing. I bought a Gamestop gift card to get rid of another gc I had, but it took forever to activate. By the time it did, the RPF apparently bought them all with the 20% discount.

So now I'll be paying extra somewhere else and am stuck with a Gamestop gc. Oh well.
