If it is a MR helmet then it is ROTS. Their prices go from $800-1600 depending on luck and condition. If you don't have the eFX ANH version yet, I'd say go for that instead.
The eFX is nice, but I prefer the MR. I love the look of the ROTS helmet.
-
Is it for display or to wear?
It will be for display.
-
Have you contacted the Sith Detachment??
I have not contacted them yet, that was gonna be my next step.

There's a mint MR Vader helmet on Ebay with a Buy It Now price of $2700. I've been wanting one for a long time, but that seems pretty steep. What is the current value of that helmet? Or is there no average selling price?
-
I want to have a suit made for me, but I'm worried it won't fit right or I won't be able to move. I've measured myself to the skin, no slack, with limbs straight. I also measured my biceps fully flexed. Should I measure differently? Or should I just forget it and build the thing myself haha?
-
They also offer an idealized helmet with none of the lumps and bumps that come with there replica helmets.
Will the idealized version still pass 501st approval? What about Centurion?
-
That is just one option that they offer.
Ok good, I'm not a big fan of the chipped look. I've been in touch with Rob, but he didn't mention all the options for the helmet yet.
-
Do all the RS helmets come with the chipped look or is that an option?
-
How will the RS helmet look on a guy with a 7 1/2 inch head, 5 foot 11 inch height?
-
Not a dumb question. Measure with your biceps flexed. If you measure straight-armed, unless you are a total toothpick you will inevitably underestimate your arm size. Unlike fabric, this stuff has no give.
Thanks, that makes sense. What about the back measurement? The diagram looks like they want the top of the shoulders down to the bottom of my butt. Is this correct?
-
This may sound dumb, but do I measure with my arms flexed or straight? Will the armor be tight on me or is there wiggle room?
-
I listened to examples of both and the ROM/FX just sounded more authentic. Once I get my armor, I'll worry about my voice.
-
Does anyone sell ROM/FX kits in the US?
-
Looks great! I'm strongly considering getting this as my first suit and in time for Halloween. How flexible are you in it? Can you sit normally? In a car?
-
I've been in contact with RS Propmasters about getting a fully assembled suit. I have their sizing chart but was wondering if I should just go to a tailor and have my whole body measured for a suit? Or should I just wear Under Armour and have a friend measure me? I just want to make sure the suit fits correctly.

The trailer sold me on the helmet, I'll hold my opinion on the armor until I see it in full.
