Well, I can't response to that properly as I dun keep tap on the Clone Armors Discussions but I understand it's possible IF you modify it heavily like what Darth nacho did to his:

Of course, it also depends how big your head/body is, as to make the helmet look sized appropriately for you.
Like when it comes to non-TK Helmets like for TIE Pilot, some of us looked better wearing the Don Post or Rubies ones which are sized smaller than original but might look like bobble-head if wearing a 1:1 version.
Or for IRG, a few of the ladies are better off wearing a smaller-casted version of it rather than the Don Post one (which is about 9/10 the original size). :shock:

Any stand-alone helmet you see being sold at Simply Toys are Master Replica or ?? ones. They are Replica Helmets so cost several hundreds.

The Stormtrooper Armor set (minus gloves and boots) are Rubies ones and was going for around SGD2000+ :shock: (the seller's asking price; NOT Simply Toys one) but the last I checked, someone actual bought it for display purposes.

The Vader one is for sale still I think at the same price. :roll:

Thanks Herry :)

I still trying to screw that "new" brand name into my head since I stopped paying much attention to replica lately due to lack of funds. :oops: Ugh! Still need to get my MR Maul FX! :cry:

Of my head, Simply Toys dun sell Rubies Helmets or stuffs currently, only Master Replica or eFX or replica ones.

That Stormtrooper and Darth Vader armor belong to one of their customers and following the "roots" of Simply Toys as partially a place for customers to rent a space to sell their stuffs, they act as the agent for selling off those costumes.
