If that's a helmet made by Portumac, than it's just another recasted MR helmet to me.
The very soft center stripe of the the dome, looks very similar to the MR one.
Nothing new from this guy, as he just recasts everything what he can get in his hands.

You can find Animefan over the RPF.

Edit:

Yep....it is a MR recast...

...and the reveal parts are all wrong...lol. :fight



I thought Portumac was using another vader mold. Is it finally a copy of MR? Thank you very much for helping me.

The one above is another distorted MR recast. Take a look at the dome.

Regarding Portumac.
Yes he had used another mold in past for his RotS helmet.
It was something based on his RotJ helmets and to compare in look and shape of the Northglass RotS helmet.

Basicly you just have two options.

1. Buy a Master Replicas recast.
2. Buy a original Master Replicas helmet.

There is nothing else.
No fan made, no screen used copy.
Nothing which would be worth to pay any penny.

If it really have to be a recast than may go for Animefan.
At least this guy not copy any stuff from other vendors.

Everything else is waste, shit, garbage, or stuff from *nice people* like Portumac etc.....
If you not want to by a recast buy a original Master Replicas helmet.

The dome is dented inwards at the sides.

As I see it is impossible to buy an original MR. And more to the price they sell ... I do not want to spend $ 1000. I decided to buy a helmet to Animefan, which as I said em is a copy of the original mold so it would be good buy not =?

Hi SStormtrooper, this is a link to a thread about my animefan Vader. Sorry I don't have contact info as its been a few years ago now. It was a great quality kit and cleaned up and painted very nicely.
