Thats weird. Where did you order yours from?

[Yautja161]

i preordered it from sideshows in October 2007
http://www.sideshowtoy.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?item=2952&source=upsell

So this cant be a fake

[War Wager]

I'm not saying it's fake, it's just it makes sense for Sideshows to sell them before other sites.

[Yautja161]

yes, your right.

Bad communication i guess

[War Wager]

Oh well, post some pics when you get it! 

Going to mount it on your wall?

[Yautja161]

i want to mount it on my wall above my computer desk, where i have HT Pred 2 Elder at the left, HT Wolf will come in the midle, and the 12inch predator 1 at the right, and then the WOlf mask wall mounted in the midle above HT Wolf

It will look kickass!

I'm saving up to get both the mask and cannon, but if I could only choose one, I'd choose the mask.

they are all sold out now except for the shruiken.

Great, an update from sideshows about my Wolf helmet, saying that its ready to ship!
They say it takes 10 to 12 bussines days to ship from US to the EU, but they already sended me a email a few days ago that the item has already arrived in the EU warehouse.
So i dont think they need to ship my helmet now from the US to the EU warehouse 1st.
So hopefully i will have the helmet within a few days now.
1 thing that kinda sucks is the VAT 17.5% that i have to pay over the item to get it into Holland.
Helmet alone costs $299, with the shipping and all the taxes it now costs $412.93.
Ah but hell.. its worth it.

Are there any other guys here from the EU on this forum who have ordered the Helmet???

I'm not from the EU, but it seems like we're the only ones who got the helmet on the site =/. And yes it is worth it!

[War Wager]

I've ordered it. Cost me £180 plus £2 for postage.

[Yautja161]

180 pounds + ?
Wow, am I lucky the dollar is pretty cheap compared to the euro right now!

[Yautja161]

Great!!!!

My Wolf Mask has been delivered 1 hour ago.
And it looks AWESOME!!!!
The mask is big, bigger then i thought.

The Mask itself is light weight, but the base is freakin heavy!
I wanna wall mount it, but im not sure if the thin wall is strong enough for that.
It will look gorgeous on my wall for sure.

I will make some nice pics when my phonebattery is charged.
