Yes, and that would be a shame, because some of us are making very valid and constructive points... without the use of personal attacks.
Hopefully Neil will just clean up the mess.

Gotta love the Star Wars threads...
The guy called me annoying bastard first (I don't know why on earth he would call me that.)
I just returned the favor.

Again, I think those points have already been made to death. Valid? I think it's already been validated by Shatterer...repeatedly. Constructive means building up something. Reposting pics of the helmet when there've already been a good 20 shots is redundant. At this point, it's just rubbing salt in the wound and as I said before:

Just so you know, I would never call you annoying...

This is just the way of these threads... and SW fans (maybe becuase their are so many) are more likely to be vocal about issues. Its just the way, if you stick around it too long you will most likely loose your mind.
thenammagazine- I'm just going to tell you that you are fighting a losing battle. There are some no matter how much you say there are mistakes but..... You're going to get labeled a SS Apologist, Super Duper Fan, or whatever wonderfully creative name they can come up with. Its ultra lame but with some what do you expect.

And now,here's their leader.

It's not beating a dead horse until they fix it (at least for future EP3 Clone figures).

I'm retired.
Got better things to do than argue with crazy anal SW fans like yourself.

I'm not a "Sideshow Super Duper Fan" at all.
And P.S. I don't want to bite you. Scabies and crabs aside, God knows what else you'd transfer.
let the people vent in peace! you wouldn't butt in on a redundant discussion on the subway, why choose to on a forum? at first i thought, yeah... maybe this is a little nit - picky myself... but after hearing the arguments presented here i can't help but think SST really let their supporters down. the company knows how demanding the Star Wars crowd can be! this is their outlet... was the clone helmet a simple mistake / oversight or a careless disregard for accuracy? what better place to hash it out?
The SS helmet looks a little off in that pic Irish. Has anybody mentioned it yet?

He didn't say it's what they wanted... he just said they approved what SSC sent, which obviously means someone at LFL missed the inaccuracies as well.
Thats what they approved so thats what they wanted IMO.
Yup, as it was explained to us, the helmet was made to match LFL provided reference material, submitted to LFL, approved, and presented as a prototype to the SSC customer base. Nothing to suggest that it better matched the photos folks are posting then LFL said "uh-uh." In fact, were that the case, I'm sure Shatterer would have just said, we made it just like that guys, but LFL wouldn't give it a pass, sorry. Shatterer made other comments that ammounted to potentially making alterations before the production piece, so if it were LFL dictation for it to look this way, there'd be no room for that.
At the end of the day, there is nothing preventing Sideshow from going back and fixing the helmet sculpt other than themselves not wanting to.
LFL also approved EP3 clones from Hasbro, Master Replicas, Kotobukiya, Gentle Giant and Medicom that were all accurate. SSC simply goofed and LFL then goofed by not catching it... which means they shouldn't bat an eye if Sideshow actually fixes the thing. Again, not an indictment on Sideshow's abilities. Stuff happens. Everyone makes mistakes. But some mistakes can be rectified, especially before they get worse by becoming repeated (i.e., future EP3 clone figures).
