Gino showed pics of it being cast from the screen used bucket. Not sure how much more direct it can get than that.
But there are lots of folks who see it differently, although the level of protest reached insane levels (not directed towards any member here, but rather to some of the posts on other forums back when this was announced).
I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

eFX Darth Vader Legend #130 joined my collection. A very cool rough helmet, and even better was the fact that I was able to compare both the Legend and the Limited Edition closely.
Wish I could take detailed comparison photos of the two, but the weather is rainy and I also decided to put the LE in its original box. This is because I don't have a place to display it, and there is a pending local buyer for it, which makes me very happy that it most likely won't leave my country.
Not too impressed about the Tsuneo Sanda print the helmet came with. But really impressed by the best offer price I was able to get the helmet with. In the end I simply couldn't pass on such a great deal, which would have been perfect even for an US customer, not to mention an international buyer where shipping, taxes, VAT etc. would make so hard to get it.
Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I swear no many how many reviews I see of these helmets I cannot see the difference between the Legend and Limited. I assume since you are selling the LE that you prefer the Legend?

The molds on both helmets were the same (so the overall shape of the helmet is identical), but on the LE they cleaned up a bit the irregularities present on the LG faceplate and hand paint brush strokes are visible, where on the LE it was painted uniformly.
