Look what just showed up. I think I'll need to find a slightly wider chord, but this works for now.
Ugh it looks SO cool. I am located in British Columbia, Canada and I am very disappointed they don't ship to Canada!!

They actually do ship worldwide. Just send them a message. Shipping was $15 to Europe.
I’m still lost in this new forum! LOL
I haven’t read the whole thread yet. I’m a grown man with 4 kids!! I don’t this the scouts are eFX. They’re so...pointy. I haven’t studied the fan helmets for a few years, but these don’t look like ROTJ scouts. These guys are emblazoned in my heart forever!
Ok, getting over the top here...anyway, eFX, Cuckblack(?), and of course RS are the only makers that nailed the look. I haven’t got the guts to make mine yet but have several! Those pointy things are none of the above. Walt I would believe...

I have a couple of those back packs.
All the surplus stores had tonnes of them dirt cheap, even when TFA came out.

Picked up the beautiful skull from Tom as well!
The one in the show looks like it has a slightly higher shine to it, so I used some Dremel polishing compound and a cotton bit to polish it up. Then I gave it a black oil paint wash.
It’s not perfect, but for 5 minutes of work from someone with absolutely zero metal polishing experience I’m happy!

The top ring for the cord looks angled. It does not match the ones for sale???
Where I'm from we call that "bent." If you're that worried about the minutiae... surely you own a pair of pliers, yes?

Anyone know what flashlight the Mandalorian uses on the side of his helmet? And how he attaches it to it?

Looked over this pic yesterday, could help but notice the Anovos Snowtrooper shoulder bell lying in the pile.
Additionally, you'll also find First Order TK forearms immediately below it (orange) and one behind it (white). Technically, this breaks canon, but oh well, a pile of props I guess

Oh sure, no worries there. I was just wondering if he had offered different versions, if it was just that one, something the production modded, etc.
I can't see the show at home due to bad internet so I can only check it out about once a week.

tubachris85x, yeah, I cringed when I saw those FOTK bits. Not just for the reason you cited. Those might be repurposed film props, but given the authorized-replica origins of several of the other bits of kit in the series, I wouldn't be terribly shocked if they turned out to be ANOVOS.
Not how I feel about the helmets in the pile. On the one hand, I have a strong sense of precedent, with Bob's bucket being a uniform standard back in the old EU, with the Death Watch and Nite-Owl helmets in Clone Wars, with the Imperial Supercommandos in Rebels... But I had hoped our titular hero's was individualized. It definitely seems to be a new standard template, though, what with the at least four (and likely at least five) visible just from that angle of the pile. Heck, three of 'em are stacked on top of each other.

As a viewer and fan, the takeaway is that on rare occasions parts of a Mandalorian‘s custom armor will sometimes have visual similarities to that which the FO will adopt.
