Just got it and when putting the batteries in thought they were flat as the breathing seemed off so swapped them a couple of times and thought I'll buy new ones in the morning. Put the mask together then realised! Cool little feature though

That EFX one is absolutely stunning, I do like that the BS one has the glossy dome, that is a little more accurate, but honestly for $130 there is some small modifications you could do to make it awesome

Wow, what an awesome Star Wars display room you have! So cool! I dream about having a toy display room that amazing some day! Thanks for the review.

I think if you're on a budget and you just don't have that kind of money for the big league props the black series is totally serviceable.

I enjoyed this video a lot, great comparison. You didn’t show how the top and bottom of the helmet separate to look like Vader when he had the helmet off, it’s a neat detail, and it makes a different sound effect when separated.

The look of Vader's helmet has changed with every film, as the prop builders start to perfect their process. Also, the first one was the crudest one, lacking the benefit of modern techniques. Then you have to look at how directors and production will put their own spin on things. Story-wise, it makes sense that the Kenobi helmet, being the first, would change over the years as Vader would have newer and better ones built as Luke was growing up. As far as how Kenner built their version, it's the best way to have great detail and keep the price point manageable.

In hasbro: can be launched constant breathing? Or do you have to repeatedly press the button?

What were the guys behind the black series thinking with the proportions?

Thanks for the video it was really interesting/useful! Seeing as so much is based on scans these days I was a bit surprised, but have to think that maybe the proportions on the hasbro were reduced in the hat part to maybe save on standard box size and therefore standard shipping and so on, which all affect the final all-important price point. A bit tail wags the dog but as most of us agree most won't notice. Having worked with Lucasfilm licensing in the past it wouldn't surprise me at all - I have the EFX from 2011 and I love it. My fave version of Vader's helmet. I feel they messed up big time on the Revenge of the Sith one when scanning only one half and mirroring it - as we know with people's faces, if you mirror something asymmetrical, you get two different looks if you mirror each side. And therefore two different personalities/versions. And I think that along with Christensen not having Prowse's proportions made him look weedy with more negative space and such. I have a simple method of overlapping each side to get a true average that feels like the same thing even if it is properly symmetrical, and it kills me they went the easy route. Also that they undid the brilliance of the alternating paint job which made it infinitely easier to film and show both planes and edges. Worse still was that I almost worked on episode 3 and have friends who worked on the costumes/props I would have hassled had I known! That's my little rant! But yep, still love the ANH helmet over the 'softer' Empire one, the smaller chin grate and all that. This one looks the most insect-like to me!!

How money much did you spend on the star trek room?

Seen as Vaders helmet has changed for each film. Is the Black Series one more accurate to the Ben Kenobi series? I had a quick look but its hard to tell.

The Hasbro Vader still looks a lot like the old voice change version with the control box, its more of a cartoon style face where the other has a smaller more menacing glare and bigger more samurai OT look about it..

Glad to see this comparison. I saw the new black series and celebration and initially I thought it looked okay... but then you see that dome and it just get's worse. And really it's that dome... looks like they improved if from the first black series; but just so much of that is off it really hurts the rest of the helmet which seems pretty good. I think if they just thickened up the front edge and altered the shape just a bit it could be a winner. Glad I have the EFX... when you see that you can just feel how right it is.

The eFX, while is nice and does retain the original shape, was heavily cleaned up. There was a ton of detail on the dome lip removed and the paint job is still far to clean on the mask. Fan casts from the Rick Baker mold retain all of the original detail better. One reason why eFx did a lot of clean up is due to the fact that a lot of people would believe they received a sloppy defected helmet. eFX also came out and said that Chinese production tends to fix flaws on the casts thinking the so called defects are not suppose to be there.

I have both the Black Series and EFX PCR helmets, and the two of them, in my opinion, are amazing. If near-perfect screen accuracy is what you’re after, you can save your pennies and track down an EFX. If you’re on a budget, then for around $130, you’ll get an absolute belter with the Black Series. It’s not 100% accurate to any on-screen helmet, but that doesn’t have to be a negative. All of Darth’s helmets differ in shape and size, so I see the Black Series design as yet another variant. Whichever helmet you get, you’re in for a treat!

I've noticed on mine that the face is 2 different colors. One cheek is gloss black & the other is metallic black. Same with the jaws of the helmet.

The paint for the original helmets was gunmetal gray with black highlights. During filming, an all black helmet didn't have enough contrast to see the angles of the face clearly, so they changed it to mostly dark gray.

i Fast forwarded to 6 min in and saw them side by side. I couldnt tell which one was the more expensive one.

It's really the shape of the dome that is off about the helmet I used the rubies supreme helmet and it fills it out so much better and makes it look more accurate I even took my old version and cut it to look like the broken helmet from the finale and its compatible with the new neckpiece so I have a helmet I can swap out for the clean or broken look now

The New Hope version on screen was clearly more matte finish than later versions. Later versions were clearly new construction as there was, after the enormous success of Star Wars, more money to make new props. I think it would fair to compare to screen shots to see if the Hasbro matches the later versions. it looks like it does. The shiny finish certainly does. Prop makers construct them to get the shot in the can. They certainly didn't make that prop to endure for a series over 40 years long. They made replacements to cover damage from simple wear to mock combat , and even nearby pyrotechnics. To make replacements over the years they have the same problems replicators have. Getting replacements to resemble the "original" prop.

That is a beautiful star wars set up

You just invented the "it's a little off" drinking game.

We need to remember that the Hasbro black series mask is also a toy. The EFX legend, is every starwars collectors dream, BUT alot of us haven't the CASH for such a spot on masterpiece as the EFX. I know I don't. In 2017 Hasbro released the first generation black series Vader mask without the extended neck and smaller chin vent, as the one you just reviewed. I purchased that one before they disapeared , so I made my move and grabbed one asap. My local walmart carried a limited few, maybe 7 in the course of 3 months and after they were all sold they never reordered anymore. The mask retailed for $68.00. Since I'm such a BIG Fan of VADER, I seased the moment, and grabbed the last one, because I doubt I would ever have that opportunity to own a studio size mask again. . . And I was right. Unfortunately the eye lenses had been gnarreled up on both sides before un boxing , so the value as a collectors item greatly went down. Having that take place, I decided this past Halloween 10-31-22 to paint the all black face using a Rustolium Gunmetal. masked out in thepattern seen in "ANEW HOPE" and Kenoby . Turned out phenominal.

Why do you give me asmr tingles-

I sold my 2018 black series Vader and got the 2022 Black Series. The neck is perfect. Maybe the helmet isn't big enough but looks good to me.

Looks better than some of the ones they used to have, surly looks better than the Halloween mask ones

This is an amazing improvement over the old black series reveal. The longer neck, red lenses, and gunmetal highlights completely transform it. It would still be nice to have that dome fixed, but as far as the mask itself I feel like they've brought out the full potential here, and this would look great next to a 1/4 HT Vader.

Visually to me, the EFX helmet looks to have a bit of a warp in its mould. Not at bad as the Don Post helmets. But I can still see a warp in the Fibreglass casting. I was going to use the EFX helmet for a full-suit build. But now I have the Newer Hasbro helmet. I'm honestly much happier with the detail and the price.

I love Star Wars. I’m 52. You get it. But this price difference is way too big for the minor flaws. Yes, the eye shapes and forehead are the obvious mistakes, but who cares when you’re paying 15% the price of an EFX.

The mark at the top is the plastic injector gate. They should have put the injector on the inside face. they could texture the plastic with a satin finish to improve it.

I wonder how the original Black Series Darth Vader helmet would compare.

I'm fine with my helmet, my brother got it for me for my birthday this year so, plus it goes perfectly with my new more replica style costume too :P I should do a full video on that here soon

The Hasbro one costs much less than 100 bucks in production costs. That should tell you everything you need to know. The EFX looks awesome but 1000 bucks for a decoration piece is WAY too greedy!

Wonder if they made the helmet bigger because the original was too small to fit most peoples heads comfortably.

That flaw you pointed out is indeed where the plastic is injected into the mold. (The spru hole)

I have the Black Series one older one its the same thing except for the red eyes I can just take my lens out and put red in it if I really wanted to but tbh i like the black effect better

I think a bit of matte clear coat would save the black series for me. The head is just a little too short though

EFX looks way more menacing and powerful. I was going to pick up the black series until I saw this vid

The cheaper one has much cleaner lines, way more consistent shapes. Fiberglass has warping and rough lines. The cheap one is injection molded, the flaw at the top is known as the gate, or where the plastic flows into the mold. You can't really get rid of gate vestige when it comes to molded components.

That's another difference you just mentioned once made a fiberglass but it seems kind of itchy for me where is the other one being a plastic the helmet is more shinier so there's that.

Just for fun I was really hoping you would put the expensive helmet top on the black series just to see what it would look like.

Because they are based on different helmets, one can say this is Version 1 vs Version 3.. In those years from KENOBI to A New Hope, Vader got older, technology changed.. Who says Vader only had 1 version of his suit/helmet? For the price it's not bad and I think compared to the $1000 version the $100 would win if you compare the inside of both helmets right?

So I recently saw one at the shops and was really impressed but having seen this comparison it just isn't quite right😟

For me personally. My Canon is that vader has had roughly the same mask type, but small differences when he has to replace things when damaged in fights. So what we see from. Revenge of the sith, to kenobi, to a new hope doesn't all have to have the exact same measurements. Just look terrifying, and seal the pressurized suit right?.

For most people it’ll be a compromise on what you get for your money. I’m happy with my original black series Vader and Mando helmets and have a load of money left over to use on my family :) but that’s just me.

This broke my heart 😢. I wanted it to be something that it’s not. But still. Very cool. Yes indeed.

It looks like cute puppy Vader. Did that show just get it so wrong? It looks like it belongs in an animated show, maybe.

How about an aircraft aluminum edition

Why is it Grey?

I like the look of the cheaper one better...the gloss works better. The matte finish on the left makes the surface imperfections look bumpy and sci fi imperial aesthetic is very clean not like the rebel attire. the spot on the top of the cheaper on is the only thing id be unhappy about.

I honestly prefer the newer shape. I thought the head a too big in 'A New Hope'

I'm Sticking with my 1995 Rubies Helmet HAHAHAH (not just because its signed) These are stunning thou

Can't speak for all the black series helmets. But the Fett is fantastic for the price. They knocked it out of the park. If I was a kid, oh man! But yeah the EFX are the way to go for more screen accurate, and still priced right in my opinion. I'm an EFX owner of both.

It is very difficult to get one, hoarders and collectors do not leave a helmet without buying, it is rare to see one in stores.
