EFX Legend is far from what is advertised to be. I own EFX Legend Vader and used to own EFX LE Vader too. They are really great helmets, but the Legend one is no true legend.

That's disappointing. Money saved for me

You have to understand that I'm not saying EFX Legends are not cool, but not really what advertised regarding true accuracy. I own quite a few EFX items and I really like them, TIE Fighter being in top 5 collectibles I own.

New info out on the Trooper Helmet.

Highlights below:

February 16, 2016

The factory that we were using for this project has gone out of business and we had to find another factory to take over this project. Fortunately, one of our other factories has agreed to take on this project and most importantly, they have produced a couple of our helmets before. Also, we do not have to start the development over. We were able to retrieve all of our master patterns and other development samples. So, the new factory will start to cast their sample helmets for our approval once they return from the Chinese New Years holiday. As soon as we have a confirmed new schedule, we will let you know!


Now, that brings us to you! Our loyal customers who had placed a pre-order for this helmet and have been waiting patiently.

As a special thank you for your patience and understanding, we will include one of our new Precision Cast Replica (PCR) Star Wars: A New Hope Darth Vader Helmet (SKU: 01141029) with your order at no charge to you! We will even pay for the shipping of the Vader helmet to you! (For our international customers, this does NOT include any duties and taxes levied by your country. This will remain your responsibility)

This offer only applies to customers who ordered direct online on our EFXCollectibles.com website.

This offer applies to all customers whether you paid in full or just placed a deposit. The pre-order must have been placed BEFORE February 6, 2016

Only 1 Vader helmet per customer regardless of how many Biker Scout helmets you pre-ordered.


We also apologize for any inconvenience (and frustration) this may have caused!

It's hard to stay enthused about an item when it takes so very very long to become a reality.

The only people who will want the Scout helmet will be die hard fanatics who are in it for the long haul. Sad really.

I'm finding wait times on EFX are getting worse and worse all the time.......

So many things are presented at SDCC that are just a dream from EFX.

The Obiwan Reveal saber faded away......Captain America Avengers Cowl...... I have been really looking forward to the Iron Man helmet and the Scout Helmet....... but as my collecting era is winding down, I am bored with the whole thing......

Customers want to enjoy the thrill of anticipation and the anxious wait for pre orders...... but when they are expected to wait years and years...... life moves on.

Not all of us are rich. When we budget for a pre-order and it never comes.....
I think I might just take the family for a little holiday to Wally World instead and leave the boring wait for those who can spare the money and the time.

EFX is not a Shadow of Master Replicas. That was the hey day....... this is just boring.

Rant over.

King Arts is offering some of the Marvel stuff EFX has shown years ago, like the Cap A helmet.

I do miss getting a steady dose of SW prop replicas.

So its not just me then?

Far out!!!!!!

I used to look forward to the EFX pics on SDCC reports.

Now I just feel lied to when I see all the line up of potential releases.

Give me a Scout and and Ironman helmet and I am retiring from the EFX game.

Bored to the point of bitter twisted disgust.

I guess you missed the Rebelscum, SSF and RPF threads where people "praise" EFX and their lack of communication and delays.
