Best 1:1 Iron Man metal helmet for display?

I want to get a 1:1 metal Iron Man helmet, for display only, no co-play or anything.

What is the nicest metal version out there for display?

I've found this one for $600:

https://the-armorfactory.com/collect...19352006721632

The eFX version for $700:

https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/produ...UaAji4EALw_wcB

Then I've seen these CatToys for around $360:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/CATTOYS-1-1...oAAOSweH1dhldE

And even this unpainted Mark 2 one on etsy for $300:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/7673692...EaAlyNEALw_wcB

Are there any suggestions or other ones I should consider?

How does the Cattoys compare to say the eFX version?

Does anyone have one from the first link at The Armor Factory?

I'd like to be closer to the $300 mark vs the $600 price point, but I put quality over price for a grail piece like this.

Thanks!

Strangely, despite being what I think is a big Iron Man fan, I have none of these.

I suggest looking at collection pictures or youtube videos before deciding on which. I got the 1:1 sideshow busts and am very happy despite them not being metal.

I have one from a company called migu, it’s a great display piece and the eyes light up and the faceplate opens/closes by just touching the side of the helmet. It’s not all metal though just the faceplate (which has a nice brushed metal finish) but since the rest is covered in paint you can’t tell if if it’s abs or metal anyway.

Here’s a quick pic I took of it awhile ago when I first got the black panther bust.

So the EFX one still isn't available yet?

Is it all metal?

So the CatToys version is just ok, not great?

Has anyone been hands on with the one from the Armor Factory? That one seems really high quality from what I can tell through pics.

That's a sweet collection El Diablo!

You need to swap out that avengers poster for the 1 oz 99.99% Silver foil Endgame poster by Perth Mint!
