Since I couldn't pay over $1000 on shipping and taxes for the LG, I went with the LE. Thus I have lots of money left and I got the SDS 1:1 TIE Fighter Pilot helmet and bust/armor, plus some other things.

That's an excellent looking TIE Pilot. The fact that they used the original molds, makes it that much sweeter. I wish I had the funds to get one of those. I'm hoping one day to get the TIE pilot and AT-AT driver headgear some day all depending on availability and money of course.
Thanks, it is an impressive piece indeed. :yes: And according to StarWarsHelmets it is the most accurate TIE helmet made: http://www.starwarshelmets.com/sds_TIE.htm
Great aquision there serg! Reminds me of the old Don Post Dlx TIE Pilot that was made years ago. Same kinda setup -and very impressive.
Thanks. The SDS TIE bust is really big, see a comparison with some other TIE busts and figuresQuote:

Has anyone heard what the latest is on the Vader helmets?
This is taking a looooong time already. I'm waiting for the eFX Vader LE and TIE Fighter. And don't even recall when I made the pre-orders LOL
I really wish efx's communication would be better. I don't mind waiting a little while longer as long as they say why. The delays plus silence makes me wonder if its ever going to show up.
I think they will show up, but it will take very long time. I totally agree on communication, I don't mind the waiting as long as the company producing the items throws us a bone from time to time. Why is so hard to show some production pics, or some info regarding the helmets, let's say once 2 weeks...
eFX is a fine company, but their communication sucks big time. Their silence is deafening and frustrating. Production pics or some kind of brief update from time to time would be better than the nothing we get.
Really hope this ships before the end of the year.
