eFX A New Hope: Vader Helmet
This would be hard to resist,
from the newsletter last night:
Now, here is an item that we are really excited to announce! This is THE replica that we have all wanted for our own collections!
DARTH VADER HELMET
EPISODE IV: A NEW HOPE
This is one of the most exciting products that we have ever announced!
The long anticipated original Darth Vader Helmet from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. What makes this product so exciting (other than the fact that it is DARTH VADER!) is the history, the mystery and the lore behind the original prop. With the help of the Lucasfilm archives, we discovered a truly lost treasure! We actually found, what we believe, are the original molds made by Rick Baker of one of the original Darth Vader helmets from the long lost original molds in 1977! Incredibly, Lucasfilm allowed us to make a casting from these molds for our master pattern. Be sure to check out our "In Development" section to read more behind the development and lineage of this replica, coming soon!

An exciting product announcement indeed.
We'll finally see the long awaited OT Vader Helmet, and mastered from an original mold no less.
The force is strong!!

Can someone just throw out a general estimate of the price, how much about would something like this run?
EDIT: OK I see the McQuarrie was 900, guessing this might be similarly priced

I suspect these will have a greater cost than the aforementioned helmet.

I can't see this selling for more than $900. I own the SS bust (or will own it once my flex pay is done) but the original and best vader helmet ever made will be tough to resist.
