Injected mold

[PatrickW1074[501st]]

Hi guys
I just purchased an injection molded helmet (TFA) and I was wondering if this is a durable method as far as strength of the helmet or did I just blow my cash?
Thanks in advance
Patrick

Wait - are these different from the TFA helmets that were bought at C7, or the same?

I got one too but I may cancel if they don't let me buy the armor, when asking the question if I can get just the armor at a later date they are just saying we will let you know, I don't need this if I can only get the armor with another premium helmet down the road

They are. The offer they have now on publicly available tfa helmets are injection molded.

I think I'm just going to stick it out and see what it looks like when I get it. My only concern is the durability of the product. I think ANOVOS has proven themselves by producing some pretty cool things. So hopefully this will be one of them.

The MRCE (aka eFX collectors edition) helmet was also injection moulded and it was rock solid. Not accurate at all for any movie, but very durable.

That's encouraging. Thanks for the input

true. I modded 5 of them. Very durable and a lot lighter than resin.

Injection molded means liquid plastic is forced into a metal mold which supports both sides of an object. Most production items are injection molded. Most of the time it's urethane or it can be abs (phones, appliances etc). I worked on items mass produced in factories using injection moulding. It will be fine.
