This was inevitable question one might ask, so worthwhile review. Someone will need to break out the calipers and do a 1:1 scale check. I wonder what paint you use for the "glass" part.

 

Looks great Ryan! It's nice to see these painted up, I just haven't had time to do so. As for size, I based mine off of 1:1 measurements, then made sure they looked in scale attached to the helmet and figures face. Glad someone did a review, it's great, either way whether you go with Major Elf or mine you can't go wrong! :woohoo

Just a quick note, these sets are now being done in resin, I found a new caster who is doing these for me now and he works in resin only, detail is the same just in resin!



Jeff,

To answer your question those are blue colored lenses I include with the set, 4 for the front and 4 for the rear of the goggles.

Thanks :applause

 

i can speak for the mike5401 quad eye - the quality is fantastic the lenses are a real plus imo.

 

They all look pretty good to me.

 

good to have a review and i thought major elf's version looked a little big! either way got both and am waiting for them to arrive,.

 

Is Mike's version made of metal? It looks like it is unpainted. But looks great regardless, so exciting we get this sort of custom items ^^

 

Since I only have Mike's version I can only attest to it. I would've bought one frome Major Rod/Elfbait if Mike didn't offer one. So like they say, you can't go wrong. And I wouldn't wait for SS or Dam to make one, I say go for it and buy from them instead. :thumb

To answer your question...first batch was made of metal. detail is awesome, but I think the next batches was made of resin?, which I think was better. Downside of the first batch is it's kinda heavy to stay upwards on the helmet. But otherwise it's superb.

Her's mine mounted: (Mike's Version)









:cheers

 

i'm just happy the three of them made it available for us regardless

 

When I saw the title of the thread I was quite concerned. These things can invariably cause bad blood. I'm glad you did it the way you did CC.

Like Mike says, you can't go wrong whichever path one chooses.

No matter what it is an initiative to break away from the monopoly manufacturers have on "cool bits". If it works like Elfbait and I want it to the hobby won't be limited to the long waits and limited availability that results from waiting for enough kits to be released by manufacturers and broken down by dealers. Maybe we can even mitigate some of the cost creep out there.
