94medition Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 The matte black looks great! BTW, I have not heard back from Masei yet. Quote
colonknight Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Hey Moy you received that masei 911 macross matt black helmet... Good for you. you need to remove the shield seals both inside and outside. For other colors in custom orders, everyone can contact to sales@maseihelmets.com for details. Quote
moy Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 yeah thanks, if you like to talk to macrossworld about a being a sponsor at next years macrossworld co n you can talk to exo on the forums you can sell alot more helmets ! , thanks agin the helmet is perfect great job you are the man !!! Quote
94medition Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I heard back from Masei. He said the pictures posted had a red top was because he was in a hurry and used a red helmet shell to make the first product samples with decals. He also said he can use different decals without the M911. I made the remaining payment and requested a white helmet with just the red on black top visor with no M911 or other extra decal. I also sent an email with a picture of my Yamato Macross helmet and said that is the way I want it. Hopefully they can really fulfill that. The ETA is around the end of November. Quote
moy Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 thats cool its not a yamato helmet but i like it becuse it is a real helmet you can ride with. Quote
Roy Focker Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Guess what I just ordered? I'm going to be selling stuff to pay for this. Now what color? Quote
Roy Focker Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Okay I requested a Yellow one. Red matches my complexion but Yellow is really Roy's I mean my color. I don't ride but it would be a really strong focal point of my collection. Quote
moy Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Great choice I think I will get a second one to have as a back up. Are they still 289.00? Quote
colonknight Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 All helmet shells will be white.. not red.. The workers picked the wrong shell to make the first hand samples for picture shooting and promotion. This Macorss & Robotech 911 Helmet by Masei is great looking! Quote

The workers picked the wrong shell to make the first hand samples for picture shooting and promotion. This Macorss & Robotech 911 Helmet by Masei is great looking! Do you have any pics of a production sample helmet, perhaps a customer's recent order, that was built to to look like those that appeared in the film? Perhaps a red Hikaru, yellow Roy, blue Max, or green Kakizaki? I think posting pics of such a helmet would help your sales. I personally have not purchased one because I have yet to see one that is made to "look" as close to a movie version (without the non-movie extras like the "911" logo , extra "un spacy kites" and thick black border lines on the side "semi-arrows").

EXO Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 Man Masei Helmets have to stop creating fake girlie accounts on facebook and spamming the Macross World Page. They keep creating threads here also. I'm about to flag them and any accounts like colonyknight as spammers. Quote

The workers picked the wrong shell to make the first hand samples for picture shooting and promotion. This Macorss & Robotech 911 Helmet by Masei is great looking! I don't want the 911 text or UN SPACY kite logo on mine. A few others have also addressed this concern. If you could pass this too the higher ups at Masei that would be great. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) I don't want the 911 text or UN SPACY kite logo on mine. A few others have also addressed this concern. If you could pass this too the higher ups at Masei that would be great. Yeah, I'd really wish someone with close contact to Masei could clarify this, last time I e-mailed Luusama and asked if the helmets would be an exact DYRL replica, he told me all the helmets would come with the M911 logo and small changes; I would have to paint it over later. Now there's info that you can get them just like DYRL. I don't get it. The helmets are coming out great but I want them right. Edited October 20, 2014 by Valkyrie addict Quote
Roy Focker Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Yeah, I'd really wish someone with close contact to Masei could clarify this, last time I e-mailed Luusama and asked if the helmets would be an exact DYRL replica, he told me all the helmets would come with the M911 logo and small changes; I would have to paint it over later. Now there's info that you can get them just like DYRL. I don't get it. The helmets are coming out great but I want them right. I asked about this. Here's part of the answer I got in an email. You do not want all extra decals.. I can understand.. some others also ask for this.I will make 100 units without other extra logos then... or you can use red and white paint to cover them on your side easily. My reply back was yes I do want one of those units without the extra logos. I don't have any area where I live to repaint anything. Think of it this way. You can still get the helmets at the preorder price. Afterwards you're paying what twice as much? If they don't make them accurate enough you can always resale them and you're very likely to break even. Quote
moy Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 yeah if you want it exactly like yamato you will have to paint it, you can ask to have the decals no the sheet and select what you want to apply on the helmet the only thing that is off is the 911 m logo its 99% there. Quote
Roy Focker Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I don't want it exactly like Yamato's. I want it like it appears in the movie. Quote
moy Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 i hope you get it the way you want it they should be shipping in november goodluck ! Quote
colonknight Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 This macross helmet by masei 911 helmet.. it is all full in black ! can win this helmet in ebay! or email masei to sales@maseihelmets.com Quote
Phalanix Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Now that we're in November, are there any updates and possibly photos of the Roy and max coloured helmets? Quote
505thAirborne Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 Had some free time this week as well nice weather (Snow by Saturday) & getting mine one step closer to how I want it to look. Making a stencil for the red arrow on the sides & yellow lightning bolts on top. Then tinting the clear visor Green. Just a side note, Tamiya masking tape... except no substitutions! Quote
moy Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 i want to paint mine but i dont have the skills, going to take it to a paint shop to see how much they will charge hope its not to much. has anyone else received your helmets post your pics ! Quote
Roy Focker Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 I ordered one of the colored ones so I don't have to paint it. Quote
moy Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) Check out the crazy new paint no helmets! Edited November 10, 2014 by moy Quote
UN Spacy Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 i want to paint mine but i dont have the skills, going to take it to a paint shop to see how much they will charge hope its not to much. has anyone else received your helmets post your pics ! I asked to see final production photos...I was told they'll be shipping at the end of November. Quote
jvmacross Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I asked to see final production photos...I was told they'll be shipping at the end of November. I've yet to see one without the extra noise on it....just want to see Masei post one painted to match the scheme for Hikaru, Roy, Max or Kakizaki.....can't believe no one ordered one like that? Quote
oshanmacross Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I ordered a og non-flair Hikaru. I think alot of us did too but since I assume the poor guy is overwhelmed and perhaps having manufacturing issues. Most of us are just waiting. These kind of things happen with pet projects... I've been thinking... It might be prudent for us at Macross world to elect a representative that is fluent in Cantonese to contact him so maybe he doesn't have to sift through so much email? Quote
Falcon 1 Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) A recent message I received after making payment is that Luusama is currently on a trip to Japan.He says the helmets are lining up for production at the factory and that the pre-ordered helmets will be done and shipped before December.The only samples he had on hand were the few hand made pre-production samples he's shown photos of and have been selling off on eBay.Patience is a virtue Edited November 14, 2014 by Falcon 1 Quote
Roy Focker Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 I asked for a non-flair Roy. My gut feeling that everything about my order will be messed up is strong. Quote
Jasonc Posted November 24, 2014 Author Posted November 24, 2014 Man, first it was October, then November, now December? Geez, this is getting annoying. I hope I get a response to when they'll actually get here. Quote
Vi-RS Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 So all the helmets are flooded with the extra bits of 911 and Masei. Quote
Roy Focker Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 At least they have a white base helmet. Quote
colonknight Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Masei Helmet asks two factories to manufacture them as OEM.. the second round should have no M911 logo as they said... but the ETA is the end of December. These M911 logo macross 911 helmet in factory pictures will be shipped out in 10 days for Christmas present. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 hehehe, LOL No X-mas present for MW for panicking Quote
