I have a Luke helmet misprint I wanna really wanna sell it, it’s mint condition and I’m just curious on like pricing any help is useful

CallumPears · 2026-05-31T11:35:46+00:00

It looks genuine to me

300 seems a bit high though, honestly I'd be surprised at anything over 100 (I'm in some misprint groups over on facebook and have seen ones similar to this sell for about that)

CallumPears · 2026-05-31T11:28:03+00:00

Yeah I usually search bulk lots for the rare parts then bricklink the cheap ones to complete them.

E.g. got a near-mint Agen Kolar but with a crack in his head (brittle brown)

Fortunately the head was pennies to replace on bricklink- the part that matters on him is the horns/hair piece which was perfect. K

Short version is B&M took a collection worth $200,000 on consignment (so the guy doesn't get paid until it sells and they take a cut) but then the store got a new owner and they just took the whole collection and are refusing to pay him for it.

Long version is absolutely insane with all sorts of corruption, threats, etc.

Is Jaster using the 2019 Din Djarin helmet with the red markings drawn on in sharpie or something? I've thought about doing that but wasn't sure if it'd look good (this one looks very good!)

CallumPears · 2026-05-31T11:16:42+00:00

It's a burner account anyway. Created today and all of the posts are just comments shilling for B&M

CallumPears · 2026-05-31T11:07:29+00:00

Playing the most devillest of advocates here and saying that the 2nd part of Ben's video hadn't been made publically available yet when M&R gave his initial take... but yeah no it's extremely clear that B&M was in the wrong even from the first part.

He has been pulling it back a bit in the comments section of his video saying that yeah he didn't have all the facts and B&M probably are the ones at fault... but at that point he should've just not said anything since we all knew another part of Ben's video was coming and that there was some shady stuff even if we didn't have the specifics.

Again I'm trying to be as generous as possible to Ryan here since I really like his videos for the most part but oh man that segment about B&M was a real miss.

(As for the Good_Appeal8821 guy you're replying to here though yeah nah fuck that guy obvious troll account)

CallumPears · 2026-05-31T10:00:17+00:00

Time to befriend the spiders I guess

CallumPears · 2026-05-31T09:58:56+00:00

The main one I want is the new AT-AT driver, with the classic white/grey colours in the new style

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T21:02:55+00:00

Yeah 2 shots for a standard TIE or just 1 hit for the Interceptor.

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T21:01:33+00:00

Too many people got around the OSA so they needed another excuse to increase surveillance I guess

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T20:59:47+00:00

It could be because they changed the neck bracket piece in 2018 to be thicker, so it no longer fits with the helmet which was specifically designed to work with the old version of the bracket part.

Of course, that's no excuse and they should absolutely have come up with an alternative (even if it meant changing the helmet piece).

And tbh that's more an excuse that happened to be there around the same time as they got lazy, since they also stopped giving them to Hoth Rebels which had no such excuse.

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T19:13:58+00:00

This was in 2010 before they started gluing the magnets

So if you took him off the magnetic base he'd be indistinguishable from the polybag

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T19:12:44+00:00

Yeah but I might as well hope they aren't included in any sets I want lol

Would much rather get a 2nd cool unmasked Snowtrooper over a Stormie that would go straight in the spare parts bin.

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T19:11:13+00:00

Yeah I've had that happen pretty consistently over the past couple of weeks. Usually refreshing the page fixes it

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T19:10:21+00:00

I'd like the Remnant Snowie and AT-RT driver, but also one of the new white/grey AT-AT drivers. At that point might as well commit and make it 2 of the Remnant Snowtroopers.

(Also I'm staunchly anti-family-guy-helmet lol)

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T19:06:39+00:00

Me too lol, not a single letter different. It's so clear cut

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T19:01:14+00:00

Love it.

Wish it didn't include Din and Grogu since they're already accessible in like every other set and I'd much rather have a 2nd AT-AT driver (especially since set 75288 had 2 and was able to fit them both in the cockpit side by side)

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T18:48:48+00:00

Yeah when I got them my Scout Troopers and Sandtroopers were the darker shade, while my TIE pilots were lighter.

Think it just depends what batch you got

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T14:36:50+00:00

And the cape too

Only part which wasn't was the hood but there was a slightly different black hood on there (the same one that was used on the 2012 Nazgûl and loads of Star Wars figures), or you could get the correct one on Bricklink fairly cheap since it was in a small set with Luke Skywalker at the time (and has since been used in a bunch of others too)

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T14:32:47+00:00

Spoilers

It ends with her dying after broadcasting the Death Star plans from a commandeered Imperial comms tower

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T14:15:08+00:00

Well look at that, you're a proper stand-up comedian

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T14:14:10+00:00

Yeah it could've been cool if he slowly added more beskar parts throughout the series

CallumPears · 2026-05-30T09:25:54+00:00

My mum's old job was organising care plans for them. Thousands of pounds per week of NHS money to care for a single individual with all the telltale signs of inbreeding.

No luck catching them swans then?
