SaturnGypsy[TK] Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 I have the exact same question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpatine1977 Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 fairly certain this is unconfirmed as of yet.... unless someone wanted to risk it and just buy some to try, it would be hand painting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilboy[501st] Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 I am hand painting mine. I may try making some vinyl decals later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonnenschein Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 If I was sarcastic, I'd say try RS but am not sarcastic and I'm NOT saying RS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 But this could be what tells the NE and RS apart if we had decals on a ANH NE helmet And I don't know what you mean Karin Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 We really don't know the origins of the NE faceplate. Hand painting seems like the easiest and safest way to go unless you want to take a chance on a set or two knowing they may not fit. I'm really really interested in a side by side comparison with NE and something with screen lineage. I'm thinking of offering a prize for the first person to take lots of quality photos of an NE next to another well known helmet like TE2 or ATA etc. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obey Wann[501st] Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 What Ian said: They emailed us saying that they are making decals and will ship them when they are ready. No ETA, but probably within a month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaturnGypsy[TK] Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I got no such email. But I did order a set of decals from Trooper Bay. I guess I'll wait and see if I get some in the mail from them and compare them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obey Wann[501st] Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) Here is the email I got on May 1: Quote Hello Everyone! If you're receiving this email, you have been assigned your UPS tracking number, and your kit should ship out late Wednesday or Thursday! I am emailing to notify you that the new decal sheets which were projected to be packed in your kits had to be rejected, as the prototype delivered for inspection did not meet our expectations. As a result, production of the final decals has been delayed until a suitable prototype is reached. Once that occurs, we will be producing them and mailing them to each of you. I just wanted to make you aware of this. I don't anticipate it taking too very long to have them ready to send, but as we all know, sometimes the real world steps in and can make things happen either sooner or later than we thought. We will do our best to get them in your hands ASAP. It is purely a dedication to detail that has caused this delay. We want you to have the very best we can offer. Thank you again for your patience. I also got this description of what all the straps are for: ------------- I also got this pic showing helmet construction (see attached.) I hope this helps.

SaturnGypsy[TK] Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Got this email today regarding decals from Trooper Gear. This is actually a slight miscommunication, but decals will be done soon. Once we get the first batch in i may be able to get some sets shipped to the customers that would like them from the previous run, which help on the shipping costs.
