Sad that no one in the comments seem to know that they are talking about. The two tone color scheme of the new one resembles that of EVERY appearance of Vader besides Revenge of the Sith where it’s fully black. Proportions, asymmetry etc. is very off on both Black Series Helmets and is not accurate to ANY of the versions. It is still nice for display tho and offers great internal details for that.
@OfficialMINIm

You speak true. However I do feel that the updated version looks a lot more screen accurate thanks to its longer neck sculpt. The new paint job in the mask also gives it a good contrast and highlights the features like the new red lenses better. Though it’s not movie prop level of accurate, I feel most people wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference

After looking at mine, I'd have to say I actually like the 2018 one probably slightly more (mine (2018) did not come with all those buff scratches, and was pristine) - they are obviously modelled on different movie props - so yeah - I prefer the 2018 one, but the new one is just fine as well.... I'm also a fan of the pure all black (2018), it looks "more" Vader as we know him....

agreed mate.i have the 2018 all black version and just bought this new one. aside from the neck part that was lacking in the first version .i can say im quite disappointed in this new one. first of all it looks like crap the 2 colour scheme. it was made for the film and only for the film since the camera only picked up black and no shawdows so the grey highlights were made but in the SW universe his helmet is meant to be all black like in ROTS. In real life this colour scheme looks unfinished and horrid. the only thing todo is repaint the new neck piece all black and clip onto the older version. after that i will be putting up the new helmet with the old short neck piece for 50 euros or dollars if anyone wants it. cheers

So the 2018 model is based on the new casting of the helmet that was done for Revenge of the Sith - the helmet is symmetrical and the helmet is a lot narrower. The 2022 helmet is based on the helmet from A New Hope - the original sculpt for the OT was asymmetrical, and that admixture of black and grey reflects how Vader’s helmet was coloured for Episodes IV and V. For Return of the Jedi, Vader’s helmet was much more chromed for the opening scene but looks identical to its Episode V rendition in subsequent scenes. The red lenses are also taken straight from the Episode IV helmet.

The 2018 one looks like something from star wars 6. I just wish the neck piece was already longer to have a full collection of Vader helmets because they changed throughout the films too. And the dome is small on both helmets. It was way bigger in the movies which is annoying

None looks fine, both are wide and the dome is short. Plus, the Mask is very simetric. The charm of the Real prop is that it was actually asimetric and it looked weird, imperfect, menacing

i definitely prefer the black gloss of the 2018 Black Series Helmet but the lower neck and the red eyes are something they were missing from the 2018 version, if the new Black Series helmet had the gloss but still had the lower neck and red eyes it would be close to a perfect helmet.

@@GeekCulture the neck piece, I like that it’s longer and that the chin vent is like the one from the Kenobi series. The gun metal paint job is a great touch along with the red lenses. I think overall this helmet is pretty amazing. Wish it would come out sooner tho because I really wanted to have it for Halloween.

i have the 2018 all black version and just bought this new one. aside from the neck part that was lacking in the first version .i can say im quite disappointed in this new one. first of all it looks like crap the 2 colour scheme. it was made for the film and only for the film since the camera only picked up black and no shawdows so the grey highlights were made but in the SW universe his helmet is meant to be all black like in ROTS. In real life this colour scheme looks unfinished and horrid. the only thing todo is repaint the new neck piece all black and clip onto the older version. after that i will be putting up the new helmet with the old short neck piece for 50 euros or dollars if anyone wants it. cheers

The only thing better about the 2022 is the red lenses and it's a matte black instead of the God awful shinny black. I have both them as I was able to get mine early. I like both but the red lenses look much more accurate. It's impossible to keep my 2018 helmet clean of finger prints and scratches
@StoryArtsConcepts
@StoryArtsConcepts Жыл бұрын
The red lenses is only more accurate to like the A New Hope movie and the stuff that comes before that movie chronologically. From Empire Strikes Back to Return of the Jedi, the 2018 helmet is more accurate
