secracium Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 (edited) i'm not interested in buying it, but the item description had no information and i was just wondering if anyone knew what kind this is. it looks a bit like the helmet from the rubies armor set. whatever the make, it's pretty hideous. http://cgi.ebay.com/STAR-WARS-Stormtrooper-crash-1-1-HELMET-hot_W0QQitemZ250568361594QQcategoryZ154QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m8QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DMW%26its%3DC%26itu%3DUCC%26otn%3D20%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8546704793614855049 Edited May 14, 2010 by secracium Quote
Rich330[TK] Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 Yep, looks like a Boobies! Some rather dishonest marketing going on there too, with it pictured next to a picture of UKG troopers in front of an SDS display. Or maybe they're just being extra honest and showing the potential buyer just how bad the Rubies looks next to proper armour! Quote
LJJNL Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 I always get a little sad when seeing a helmet like that.. Quote
carbonitekid Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 I always get a little sad when seeing a helmet like that.. I normally laugh so hard a little bit of wee comes out. Quote
Rich330[TK] Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 I normally laugh so hard a little bit of wee comes out. :lol: And that nearly had the same effect on me! Quote
bluehickey Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 When I see that helmet with it's bug-eyes, I have an urge to find my fly swatter and smack it to death. Quote
firebladejedi[TK] Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 Yep thats the rubbies shi'te being pumped out, looks like a really bad recast of a don post helmet I think this guy is regularly reported for using the UKG guys without permission, and the guy must be stupid using the SDS stall to boot Quote
carbonitekid Posted May 14, 2010 Report Posted May 14, 2010 When I see that helmet with it's bug-eyes, I have an urge to find my fly swatter and smack it to death. Heeelllp meeeeeee!!!!!!! Quote
naatsirhc[TK] Posted May 16, 2010 Report Posted May 16, 2010 I paid $20 for the one I have, mine is 2 pieces. I am making my daughter an ewok costume and I will finally have use for it. For $20 I had to get it, it was never intended for trooping. Wow! $117 that's Quote
Trooper Zero Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 I can tell you that is not a Rubies because they both have bug eye lenses but Rubies has fatter lenses these have long skinny ones. Quote
WWIIREBEL Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 I can tell you that is not a Rubies because they both have bug eye lenses but Rubies has fatter lenses these have long skinny ones. Hence its from china.LOL. Quote
geordietrooper Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 I can tell you that is not a Rubies because they both have bug eye lenses but Rubies has fatter lenses these have long skinny ones. its defo a rubies in the description pics Quote
Smitty Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 whatever it is, its not worth the plastic its made from. Looks like a crap rubies helmet to me. Quote
Crimotaku Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 Used to have one of those. Definitely a Rubies. Not practical enough to even toss around like a normal bucket. It'd break just by tossing an iPhone at it >.< Quote
Dj Gary Z Posted June 12, 2010 Report Posted June 12, 2010 Its not a Rubies I bought one from same guy for 98$,because I like to collect diff helmets,but it came smashed from china and is very poorly made and it smelled like fresh paint when it was opened.I got my money back from buyer but its worthless not even a good prop for a shelf,it looked nothing like the pictures.

Darth Voorhees[501st] Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 The pictures is definitely a Rubies, what he actually sends...may not be. Quote
poisonfox Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 The best part is the "Free Colone Figrue" (sp) that you get with it! Quote
NoVATie[Admin] Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Pretty misleading to have the SDS photos with it. Quote
carbonitekid Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 Pretty misleading to have the SDS photos with it. But quite ironic. One lying shyster using another lying shysters images, and claimg the work as their own. Quote
