Star Wars helmets buried in the forest.

[CTF]

A pristine very weathered ROTJ Helmet has just been discovered in the USA. I wonder if they are related, details on the OPC.

What is OPC?

Hi all,

The helmet recently showcased on the OPF was sourced by us, and has absolutely no relation to the story of the two helmets here.

I don't know either. I thought maybe he meant the Original Prop Forum.

Interesting story, I lived in Brookings, Oregon (not far from Crescent City) and know of a few people who were used as extras for ROTJ. But I don't have a story like your helmet one, hope you can track something down, what a story for your kids.

Hey Lewis,

I think "OPC" is the proper shorthand on this one... refers to the forum associated with Jason Debord's Original Prop Blog.

BS from the start imo. :lol

 

[gonk27]

Yeah. Pics, or it never happened.

 

[pfillery]

Maybe the ewoks took the helmets

Yeah they did! I saw them playing them like bongo drums at the end of ROTJ!

 

[DD977GM2]

BS from the start imo. :lol

Yeah I figured it was due to the time span etc. The newness to this
prop world had me overly excited and a lot of wishful thinking.
My main hobby is same, if too good to be true, then it probably is.

Just about the time ya find it.............Disney lawyers show up LOL

 

[Smitty77]

Well, this was a great story, whether 100% true or whether he dreamed it up what a great story!
If true, I'm very sorry for your losses, if BS, your a great story teller!! Lol

 

[Egon Spengler]

No disrespect intended at all, but I find this story hard to believe. I do think it would be cool it if was true.

 

[GI Jeff]

It is a cool story and I know there has to be other stories like this out there.
I really hope this is a true story.

Whoever owns the forest should sell the screenused trees...........
