Just wanted to show everybody what I picked up today. It's obviously not finished yet, but I am in the process of getting it all painted up, etc.

Let me know what you think. :)

Enjoy.

I want one so BAAADDDD.... :p

Are the ears made from ABS or styrene? Also is that the right colour??

Thanks :)
 
Wow, sharp pull.

Looks like a bumpy cap and back too.

If I owned one of these I'd probably keep it as is ;)

NOT

I'd need a couple.

I thought he'd decided to finally "retire" from the business (again, again)???

It looks a strange colour. Is it cream or is that just the photo?

Cheers

No hijacking. Don't do it.
Jorusfett has a new helmet to showcase, and that is the subject matter. I've seen his collection and it's insane.
BTW, still want your first one in MY collection Jor :)

The ears are made from Styrene.

The helmet is the right color (at least one of them) as there were two different colors of HDPE used for the screen-used helmets.

I am here to show the RPF community what I picked up recently and you have to come in here and start bringing up personal issues you have with someone.

If you don't have anything constructive to talk about in this thread, then stay out. I don't need you hijacking this thread for the sake of your own bitterness towards someone who you disagree and have a feud with.

And besides, you don't even know where I picked this up, so you are already making false assumptions. Get your facts in order first before you jump the gun.

Now to answer your question.....it is just the photo. It's more of a beige color consistent with the originals.
The lighting wasn't the greatest. I plan on painting it sometime this week and posting new photos.

ANH or ESB? I hear they were the same :)
[/b]

That would be right - the ESB helmets were just refurbished (not the word I'm looking for, but you get the idea).
 
Wow - people are a little touchy here.

JJ - accusing me of hijacking is a little hilarious coming from you.

My point about TE was only due to Joe's comment. If its not a TE then I apologise.

However I thought it was a valid point about the colour - cream - thats all

Chill guys

Its actually more a beige color, just appears cream in the lighting.

I thought your question was valid, so I did answer it...and kurtyboy too. ;)

Great, thanks..

Although note that the originals were khaki, not beige. Not being difficult here, just pointing something out :)

Cheers
