Locitus[Admin] Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 All tutorials related to the MRCE helmet would also apply to the eFX. It's the same helmet, just made by another company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt black Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 You haven't got a booby prize. It's a nice helmet but more of a collectable than a costume piece. It has been idealised which takes away the look somewhat of a trooper as seen on screen. Some members have done mods to the eFX and have made it look very nice. Take a good look at the forum and read as much as you can about the various different makes of helmets and you will soon see what makes for a good screen accurate helmet. Oh and welcome to FISD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What movie do you want to emulate? Most go with A New Hope, but there are differences between the movies. Also, if you're trying to make this as a gift, be prepared that it'll be quite an expensive gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laspector[TK] Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I have two of them and I love 'em!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjsavage7[TK] Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I made one into a "troopable" helmet & it wasn't too hard to do, but if I could do it over again, I would have just used a kit from ATA, or AP. Its a nice helmet, but after a while, you tend to notice the little differences that make it stand out from a more screen-accurate helmet. It's definitely not bad though.
