Star Wars The Black Series Boba Fett Premium Electronic Helmet, The Empire Strikes Back Full-Scale Roleplay Collectible

As good as you will ever get for the price
Pre ordered because it seemed like this one would be harder to find in the future and it looked really good for the price. This is still mostly true after receiving it. The actual helmet itself is very nice, itd made out of solid material, the interior is nice and the visor is fitted perfectly. This is pretty hard to accomplish on even good fan buckets without spending a lot of time in my experience so good on them for that.The paintjob is pretty good, not perfectly accurate but definitely very good for a mass produced item with the type of high detailed job a Boba helmet requires. But this is definitely the area where it will pale in comparison to a real high quality handmade one. It will be very obvious, the layers just arent really present and the silver metal color doesnt sheen like you would expect. They definitely made an effort to make it FEEL layered though, the helmet feels really nice to touch, but when looking at it you can tell it isnt.The other negative I can point out is that the earpiece for the rangefinder is made of a different kind of plastic as the rest of the helmet. You can feel and see the difference in reality, which is slightly jarring. I imagine this is to accomodate the fact that it is removable so that you can access the battery underneath it. It feels pretty fragile to be honest. Fortunately because it is removable you can probably just upgrade it to a higher quality earpiece rather easily if you wanted. I should mention that the opposite earpiece appears to be made of the same material as the rest of the helmet, it looks and feels great.The last relatively minor inaccuracy is that the brow is missing the “bent” section that the real deal has. Its perfectly straight.With these minor negatives out of the way, I still say this is an amazing piece. Just look at that cost, to get something even close to it you’d be spending 200 minimum and you’re gonna be painting it yourself. It may not be accurate enough for the ultra hardcore and keen eyed, but its certainly good enough for everyone else and can easily upgraded to be far more accurate. Good helmet

Amazing detail & quality!
I’ve always been a Boba Fett fan, so seeing this, I knew I had to have it.The detail on the helmet, inside and out, is nothing short of AMAZING. You can feel the scratches in the paint, and it could seriously be a movie prop.The antenna works as advertised, and it always just makes it seem that much more real. Doesn’t wiggle around too.The one gripe I have with this helmet is the plastic adjustable headpiece. Once inside the helmet, the back adjuster piece didn’t leave enough for my head. It was just slightly too small, so it wouldn’t sit right on my head. I think my head might be a little bigger than average so YMMV.I decided to take out the included head piece and add foam padding to the inside with gel super glue. The 1/2″ high density foam worked perfectly, and now the helmet sits perfectly on my head. The foam cost less than $10 for a whole yard, and I barely used a tenth of the foam, if that.If you don’t plan on wearing it, don’t even worry about it, but if you plan on wearing it, be aware that islt might not fit right without some modifications.10/10 would recommend to any Star Wars fans!

Great detail
Helmet is excellent all around. Great look, Great fit, Great price.

So cool!
Stoked! Had to completely mod the fit though. Glassed in the brackets that hold the headgear that broke right away. Then it was too tight from front to back. (Male, 5’10, 175 lbs, slim build) Cut out back side of headgear and added padding. Fits sweet now after modifications. A couple hundred dollars cheaper than buying a legit Boba Fett helmet. Lost a star due to modification.

La impresión general al tener el casco delante es buena, proporciones correctas y buen nivel de detalle reproducido del original. Por ejemplo: el ‘borden connector’, esa pieza redonda con tres agujeros a la izquierda del visor, está reproducida en metal, buen detalle!; choca el peso que tiene para ser plástico, pero añade una sensación agradable al manipularlo, debe ser porque el interior va forrado con multitud de placas con mucho detalle y al final tienes una doble pared. Del interior me ha sorprendido que todas esas almohadillas cuadradas sean blanditas y no se limiten a ser parte de la placa de plástico duro inyectado. La construcción del visor (totalmente oscuro, no deja ver nada del interior ofreciendo una visibilidad clara) y como se cierra en la parte interna con un refuerzo en X también da mucha solidez a una parte que podría ser muy frágil. En la parte no tan buena diré que el color es un tanto apagado con respecto al casco original, en el caso de los verdes se ven ligeramente oscuros pero el rojo está muy deslucido y lo mismo el rayado amarillo de la derecha. La manera de reproducir los desconchones de la pintura mediante calcomanías, aunque es genial (se puede reproducir el desgaste con gran fidelidad al original manteniendo un patrón regular en todas las copias) sin embargo una vez más, el metal se ve muy deslucido, siendo más correcto hablar de un gris sin brillo, aunque sigue teniendo esa sensación de profundidad, de capas, que da el casco original. Si buscas una réplica de un casco de Boba Fett verás que el tema de la pintura es una de las cosas que más horas de trabajo consume y encarece el producto. Así que con todo, en el juguete que nos ocupa está resuelto de manera ingeniosa para ofrecer algo realmente parecido al original. El tema de la parte electrónica de la antena/telemetro le añade otro plus. Los dos leds parpadeantes están genial y como pequeño añadido está la retícula iluminada, que al igual que el interior del casco es una licencia que se han tomado pero que le añade simpatía. El caso es que en el estante se ve genial; se puede criticar si, pero la otra opción es gastarte unos 700€ en un casco de Boba Fett; éste esta alrededor de los 120 y es muy resultón. La pena es que nadie jugará con ellos! 🙂

Fit perfectly.. great sound and looks amazing
