This was always going to be a special one - I remember when EFX contacted me several years ago having just come back from the Lucasfilm Archive, with Brian Ono excitedly saying that he thought they'd found Rick Bakers casting taken directly from the Original one-and-only screen-used Darth Vader helmet from A New Hope.
Fast forward a few years to June and eFX's replicas are finally here I know whatever I write here you're not going to read - you cant take your eyes of it. It looks amazing. I suppose the starting point for this or any helmet is the provenance of the mould from which is derived. So Rick made a rubber mould of the screen-used helmet, and after castings were made - the mould itself was left languishing on a rack in the bowels of the Lucasfilm Archive.
That was until eFX got their mitts on it a couple of years ago - they made a cast off it - and that master helmet formed the basis of the helmet they have produced today. Produced in both "Legend" and "Limited" edition versions, the difference is the amount of cleanup that's taken place and the roughness of the detailing and paint finish.
In specific terms the Limited Edition seen lower down this page has had more of the irregularities removed like small dents in the face plate and an even and consistent spray-paint like finish. Whereas the Legend Edition seen here emulates the rough and ready look of the on-set original. So if you look at the photo above you can see the brushstrokes in the gun-metal highlighting, the dent on the nose bridge, the uneven mouth grill vents and the painted "C-Scar" on the cheek.
They're supposed to be there since that's what the original helmet looked like.
