just wanted to share a bit of info to all who purchased one of these lids..
the serial/edition number on the box and the metal plaque may not represent the helmet that is inside of the box. reason is that the helmets themselves are not numbered. nor is the COA. someone told me this on another forum..
"eFx has stated on numerous occasions that the serial numbers are completely random. So no one knows if they got a helmet from early on in the run, etc. And the domes and face plates are not "matched." So getting a smaller serial number means absolutely nothing."
this just might be true..becasue there isn't any serial/edition number on the COA or the helmets.
why put a serial number and edition size on the metal plaque and a serial number on the box? just to make us think that that's the edition number we are receiving?..
this just in..from Bryan of eFX.....
"The serial number does not represent the order that the helmets were made. Since through the manufacturing process the order constantly changes. With our QC program, pieces are taken out for inspection or touch up etc. So there is not way to number the components and keep them in order.
The plaque number is the number that was assigned to that particular finished helmet as they are complete in the production line. This is typical of all collectibles."
Thanks
Bryan
im sorry but usually an serial/edition number is the number that the collectable is giving after it has been pulled from the mold. so i guess things aren't always what they seem people. so any one of us could have #1 face plate with a 364 dome..or vice versa..man i cant believe this..why do it like that? that's ridiculous. so i guess it is true. Abryan just gave us the proof..
