RE: SP Vader?

I sent you a PM on the origins of this being a planet hollywood casting. BingoBongo thinks its an early highly modified fyberdyne casting.

To be truthful, the Fyberdyne isn't the only one of that style of casting.

And in terms of accuracy: it's not. It's a nice helmet, but not accurate.

I am, admittedly, a Vader newb. How is the SithPlanet helmet inaccurate? Can you explain? Maybe with some pics?
Im trying to learn and it would be greatly appreciated!

I dont think he is saying the SP is inaccurate, but if the origins is actually fyberdyne and not the planet hollywood, then any of the castings that originated from fyberdynes are not as movie accurate as other castings out there, but in my opinion I think they are..but thats my own opinion.

Well, the SithPlanet is a reworked Planet Hollywood cast, as claimed by SithPlanet. It has the latch feature on the brow that we know from the Fyberdyne, but it is NOT the Fyberdyne, just as little as the PropSculptor helmet is. They come from a similar source with that latch feature added and those were passed around as originals or cast off originals and sold for lots of money.

It's from the same family of helmets as the GH - especially the inwards slanting left mouth wall (when looking at the helmet from the front) gives it away.

Not to promote The Prop Den, but we have a whole discussion going regarding the differences between this family of helmets and the "originals".
