Darth_Raichu Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Helmets comparison. DV still looks like it is bubble wrapped. Definitely should not be put under neon / white / bright studio light 1 Quote
spener90 Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Am I the only one that thinks that the Vader helmet looks like it is in a good mood? Quote

Seeing them together I think DV helmet is smaller in scale. Looks like it needs to be 2-3 studs wider to be in scale with the other helmets Quote

And several reviewers have said the same. 15 minutes ago, Darth_Raichu said: Seeing them together I think DV helmet is smaller in scale. Looks like it needs to be 2-3 studs wider to be in scale with the other helmets I agree. If it was placed next to either of the stormtrooper helmets it would be even more obvious. And yet it is still the most expensive of all of them. Kind of puzzling. I still like the Boba Fett helmet the most out of all of them. It might be the coloring as the rest are just so monochromatic. And as much as I would love to see Rebel Fighter Pilot helmets, they would all end up relying heavily on stickers and I don't think any of them would really look that good in the end.

This must be based on the post-destruction of Alderaan Darth Vader. 1 1 Quote

Mathew Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 (edited) I don’t get the appeal of just a helmet. Something macabre about them. A bust would be more interesting but still not my thing. 7 hours ago, spener90 said: Oh definitely, I more mean the eyes on it just look happy. This must be based on the post-destruction of Alderaan Darth Vader. He has eyelids and rounded cheeks. Doesn’t look right. Edited March 29, 2021 by Mathew Quote
S4J Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 I kind of dig the helmets. I like how they look on display. And yes DV stoic face totally has a happy sense to it. On a separate note, anybody have 75181 UCS Y-wing they want to get rid of? Preferably used. Quote
brickvoyeur Posted March 30, 2021 Author Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Bad Batch trailer has been released Captain Rex makes an appearance. May see a P2 Rex remake eventually. Saw Gerrera makes an appearance as well in the trailer. He doesn't seem to be half robot yet. Will be interesting to see how deep the timeline goes. Could they eventually have a cameo with the Spectre cell before they crossed Aladdin on Lothal? Edited March 30, 2021 by brickvoyeur 3 Quote

I guess I should have posted "for entertainment value only". I still found his interview an interesting take on the Forbes article. I read that article day two after it was published and wondered why Kennedy was not mentioned in the piece at all. Pashan (20 years working in Hollywood) has an interesting take on the Forbes article and internal workings of Disney. I guess you can claim he has a bone to pick with Disney since they fired him for questioning the approval process when he worked on TRON: Uprising, but he wasn't really attacking Disney. In fact, I didn't feel like he was attacking anyone. Again, I found it interesting and thought others might as well. Quote

It has it go look at the pics and at only $20 more than 10225 ten years later looks like a good buy. Edited April 14, 2021 by Pseudoty Quote
