The old UC dropped hints that the Rohirrim helms would get made (Theoden and Eomer.) At some point, the excuse came out that Theoden's helm was too elaborate and they could not do it justice and still maintain it cost-effective to the consumer. That pretty much killed it. No word on Eomer's helm followed. That killed it also.
So far, it doesn't seem that the new UC is making LOTR helms at all, but that could change. If it does, I would seriously consider picking up the Rohirrim helms.

Eomer's would be first on the list, always loved that horse head nose guard.

4I've also always wanted these helms... Loved the detail and the continuation of the Horse theme... But, if UC goes ahead with it, i just hope that they do not cut too many corners and come out with a quality product...

6There is a military supply company out of Australia which produced a really nice quality Helm of Eomer in limited numbers a few years back. They sold them on Ebay, and I kick myself now for not picking one up. Real horse hair, copper, steel, etc. Etching, and all. I think they retailed for around $350 USD. I can't find the company anymore, and don't remember the name.
