RS Hero Stormtrooper with Screen Lineage (first edition)

[Keith]

I must say that there is a world of difference with the proper hero faceplate, mainly the tubes. You just can't make a stunt faceplate look like this.
The angle of the face within the cap/back is the most important part of the assembly in my opinion and its something you can get right when using the hero faceplate.

I guess what I'm asking is how Keith got an RS hero to work on already? Or does he work at RS?

Rob and Si are freinds of mine who are a 20 minute drive away. Its not putting me ahead of anyone else or anything. I took home an untrimmed kit and it has no lens as they were still perfecting that when i was there.

Build looking great as always Keith!

Thanks for the pics and input!!

 

[Keith]

Thanks.
Its trimmed to match the promo helmet, but i didn't want to have the cap/back seam showing behind the right ear this time.
The mics are finished and ready to fit and i will be putting those in less wonky than the promo, so it will be more loosely based on the promo helmet than my previous builds with other kits.
I just prefer to have the gaps around the ears and have the teeth and eyes cut to match an original.

That’s what I was talking about, Keith!
You know I have always admired your craftsmanship and attention to building details!

Great to see you back building Keith. Helmet looks sweet.

And what Ben said, you have been gone for far too long!

Need some education here. Why is it that RS Prop Masters produces limited edition Stormtrooper helmets with a direct lineage to the original trilogy (created from original ANH molds), along with screen accurate paint/weathering, but mass produced EFX Stormtrooper helmets sell for three times the price on public auction sites? Thank you in advance.
