Just seen the tv advert and they lok absolutly brilliant. Display shelves are tops and what a stunning collection this will build into. different websites have had lots of discussion on the merits of the printed Elements of partwork cllections. For me the "magazines" issued with such thngs as Victory, SotS have been so interestng and a great read. From what i saw on the advert the publications with this helmet series look equally intersting, informative and great fun. Lots of effort have gone in to puttng these together. For those collecting you have something unique and i hope you have great fun with this collection. Happy Modelling

Just picked up the Boba Fett issue. It looks great with all the metal scratches etc... Makes it like much more detailed than Darth Vader. Not saying the Darth Vader one is bad more like the Boba Fett one is awesome!  Finished 3D Printer, RB7, Hummer, Skyrider drone & Combat tank collection http://www.model-space.com/gb/

Darth was never weathered though. He was more like "senior management - never get your hands dirty" were as poor old Bobba was a bounty hunter struggling to "make ends meet" and could never afford a decent outfit on the wages he was earning  I must say if I had the funds for all of these different collections I would certainly go for this one as it looks brilliant. My favourite along with many I guess will have to be the black and white imperial stormtrooper helmet. Such a wonderful and great looking collection Happy Modelling

Picked up C-3PO last night. He is nice and shiny! They are nice models but I don't have the room or funds for all of them.  Finished 3D Printer, RB7, Hummer, Skyrider drone & Combat tank collection http://www.model-space.com/gb/

With the UK run going to 60 issues, but in Europe the collection running to 75. Is it possible to get a list of what the 60 helmets will be in the UK so that I can work with friends in Europe to pick me up the "European 15" as they release...?

The UK collection is currently planned to run to 60 issues though may yet be extended in line with elsewhere if its popularity continues, this decision will be made in Oct. My advice is to sit tight until the decision is made.

Thanks for that update. Can you post in here in October when the decision is made, or will subscribers get some kind of letter offering to continue.

Nothing received by letter. Is there any update on plans, and is there a list of the 60 helmets.
If not continued, I would like to pick up the helmets from abroad on eBay before they are gone.
