That’s so funny! When I first saw the plain white helmet, the first thing I thought about was, “Man, if we made reusable decals for each type of clone trooper, we’d be rich!” 😂
I totally prefer the shiny look as well. The gloss really adds to the whole "outer space military" aesthetic. I only have two Black Series helmets, but I definitely want a clone trooper helmet of some kind. I am going to end up waiting for either a 501st or a Coruscant Guard repaint! Quick note about the voice changer...I kind of wish they would've skipped it altogether and maybe charged a little less. If you're not Tem or Dee Bradley...you're not gonna sound like the trooper. Regardless, I think it looks great! Nice review, Jackon! -Justin
Thanks for watching Justin! I'm here for the shiny look too. Hopefully they do pump out a few more repaints since that's what they did for Mando helmets. I agree about the voice changer. Maybe it should have not been a thought at all but for the helmets I guess it's a part of the gimmick -Jackson
Glad I changed your mind! I feel like it got too much hate in the beginning but I hope that now because we have the physical product instead of renders people will come to love it -Jackson
I'm so glad their glasses friendly I'm pretty much sold on that I may not be allowed to be in the 501st with it because of no Blue Line I guess but it looks really solid
It looks better than my Cybercraft, which was double the price of the HBS. Hasbro has already announced the first repaint, the Ahsoka Loyalist (332nd) which will be out this year. Perhaps a Gree and a Jesse will follow soon?
Hopefully more repaints! That would be amazing for this helmet. I've never been a fan of CyberCraft because they take from a lot of helmet builders files and own work without saying they do. I have seen and tried one of their helmets and I will say they aren't that bad -Jackson
@@1313Podcast I didn't know about the accusations of plagiarism until recently, but they are good helmets, however, the proportions of Jesse's republican logo on my example are a little off.
Thanks for the review, Jackson! This is awesome for what it is! Parents can buy these for kids. Adults can put them on display or wear them around without too much fear of damaging them. I, of course, see where Hasbro has made alternations from the original design, but if it means more people can get their hands on a clone bucket, then I’m all for it.
Yup! Having it for the sake of having a clone helmet is what I enjoy about this. It's just enough that it isn't something cheap or lame for collectors and kids -Jackson
Those are the absolute best helmets on the market and worth every penny. I'd love to get one some day. I'd really recommend that if you have the money -Jackson
@@1313Podcast they are absolutely gorgeous, I have 4 myself. Gree(green phase two) Keller(airborne helmet) Hound(red arf) and a Kyber Trooper(blue sandtrooper) from them. They are a bit pricey so I been spacing out my purchases but they are all incredibly detailed and beautiful in my collection, I am trying to get fairly different helmet types of course. I hope you can get one someday and do a review on your channel, would love to see your thoughts :)
When did you preorder this helmet off of BBT? I had just preordered my helm about two weeks ago off of pulse and wanted to get a rough estimate if I switched the order ti BBT.
Hello I was wondering how big the helmet hole is for someone’s head. I have a huge head almost 25-26 circumference. The black series Luke pilot helmet fits me, but will I be able to put this helmet on? 😮
This is incredible. The only problem I have is the glossiness. Clones should look more matte so they don’t have that cheap, plastic looking texture for armor, unlike the stormtroopers. Like when they call clones shinies, they are referring to how clean it is, not how reflective the armor is. But aside from that, it still looks incredible and I will definitely be getting one.
Where did you get yours? I have mine pre ordered through Amazon but no luck yet. Bbts is where I've seen people already getting theirs but it still says pre order. I'm wanting it asap. I'm glad the voice changer works like the new storm trooper helmets not the new old ones. Cause the old voice changers stink
BBTS is where I got mine. My dad pre-ordered his on Pulse and still has no shipping info at all. I pre-ordered immediately so I think the people that jumped right on it got it. It'll be everywhere soon tho if vendors are just starting to get it. Yeah old changers on the helmets weren't the best lol -Jackson
@1313 Podcast gotcha. Yeah that makes sense. I've been watching like a hawk since Hong Kong collectors got theirs two weeks ago. Thanks! I guess I'll start going with bbts from now on I used them for bo katan. It's just a little bit more because I get free shipping with Amazon prime

Aussie here, you’d be surprised how similar it sounds 😂
Man it’s so awesome to hear you bond with your dad over Star Wars! Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for checking it out! -Jackson
Great review! I cancelled my preorder but after watching your review, I think I'll go ahead and pick one up.

@@somewhereelse000 sorry to hear it's a little off. But yeah I only found out about all that from following a lot of helmet makers -Jackson
@@1313Podcast So did I, however, I bought mine before the controversy started when they were a hot new company.

Excellent review! Like you said cant beat the quality for the price. However love the Galactic armory style more =)
Galactic Armory is definitely my go to for 3D print stuff tbh. That's also what I'm using for my costume -Jackson
What do you think of Samoilovart helmets? Have you tried them?

Awesome review, brother. I really appreciate your passion for The Clone Wars!
Thank you for watching! Clone wars is one of the most important things to me so I have such a passion for it -Jackson
im personaly more excited for the scout trooper that comes out later this year
its a damn good year
I'm 100% getting that one. It's soooo nice looking. Couldn't be more happy that Hasbro is stepping up their helmet game -Jackson
Amazing review
When did you preorder this helmet off of BBT? I had just preordered my helm about two weeks ago off of pulse and wanted to get a rough estimate if I switched the order ti BBT.
I pre-ordered it the day it came out from BBTS. I typically order from them because they get stuff in early -Jackson
Is the black brow above the visor made out of rubber like in the imperial stormtrooper helmet or is it just plastic?

I'm 178cm with a solid medium build, & it's just too large. Looks ace on display though - great review.

Just got mine from Disneyland.. they had boatloads!
@@RockGodGuitarist59 yeah Disney always gets first dibs on stuff. That's super lucky! -Jackson
@RockGodGuitarist59 well please grab us one, haha we will reimburse you and send you a bunch of free band merch
Awesome clone trooper helmets looks excellent 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This helmet is absolutely worth it if you're looking to pick up something that isn't too pricey for a collection. I love it! -Jackson
Missed oppertunity there is no review out on youtube with the voice changer
Wow really? I thought other people would cover that part because it is a feature after all -Jackson
does the head adjustor pivot for anyone??😅
