I know someone has answered this question from me on another thread, but that was before you actually got them in, is there going to be 5000 pieces run of Gimli's helmet or 3000? What does the serial numbers on the helmets you have say? Sorry to be a doubting Thomas.

Yes there will be only 5000 cpies of this helm made. We have not opened one of the boxes yet. That would mean we would have to put it on display, because we will not ship an opened box to a customer!!

But Steve Brown said we are putting one up on the shelf at the store so I'll let ya know then

Re: Gimli"s Helms

Is it made to Gimli scale or human scale? If it's done to Gimli scale, Swordsman will look like he's wearing a dwarven skull cap :-D

Limited Edition The Helm of Gimli Review

I just posted the Limited Edition The Helm of Gimli Review in the Reviews section of Fantasy forum for those interested. You can go to the Review section and read it or just click the link here. I would really like some input if you care to give your opinions please.

Thanks
Swordsman

I will have close up pictures of it and its parts up in the Gallery soon for all to enjoy. Bottom line is that if you have been wondering if it is the quality expected, as usual United has went all out to see that these Helms are of the quality expected fro fans and more. Good Job United.
