When we were testing them out here at the office it looked a lot like this persons post. I am really surprised at the quality of the goggles we ended up with as they came out awesome! When you pick them up they feel sturdy, just as they should. The straps are high quality and there's even a nice pad on the inside of the battery pack that fits to the back of your head making them comfortable to wear. The manufacturer even let us design a custom sticker for the battery pack. We had a lot of fun with it. Hope you like it if you pick it up.

I'm getting a pair! Going to be great for spotting coyotes in my backyard at night when I let my dogs out LOL!!

UPDATE: Sorry I didnt make this clear. We tested them in a pitch black office here with the door closed. Was really trippy.

nice post! But.. it may be really cheap googles do to the fact that the prestige condition comes with the hardcover game which is about $80 right there and it also comes with the head stand which should be about $20 dollars plus the NIGHT VISION GOGGLES which would be only about $50 which therefore is pretty cheap! Really good night vision goggles would be about 100 or 160 dollars. so yeah. But other than that nice thread!


yea but the hardened edition is $80 including the profit IW are getting. it would be like $30 or $40 to make the hardened edition, or maybe even less so the goggles could cost more than you think. and the sculpted head is just a big block of material and will have bits shaved off to make it look like mactavish's head with a plastic base stuck on the bottom so its prob only $10 to make so that leave you with $100 for the googles. im just guessing though

These are probably going to be some cheap night vision goggles. But I don't think they will be terrible quality. Infinity Ward wouldn't want to make all of their customers mad who payed the money for them. But I don't think the goggles will be great.

Of course they'll say they are high-quality. Would they say "These goggles don't work as well as we predicted."

I thought it was funny that amazon said the range was 50 feet max, and that game developer said he wanted to spot coyotes with them, damn thats kinda close to be getting to a coyote, especially if he is hungry. I smell a dead game developer brewing. Theres going to be some great stories about mishaps with these NVG's.

Pretty good prediction, but either way they may still be unprofficient. The goggles may not be the best in the world but they will do I guess for about a month or so. Then people will probably just get bored of them. Again just guessingHappy
