WWII Tuskegee Airmen Tribute Stormtrooper

[Skaught]

All the helmets will be auctioned off on Sunday, August 15th at Celebration V (2-5 PM). I doubt there will be any that don't sell. I heard that there was already a $3,000 offer for the Jesse James helmet.

Amazing work Arturo. I think I might actually bid on this one, although I am sure it will go for far more than what my wallet can handle!

Hey all,
I am the Project Manager for the TK Project. I am sorry to say that you MUST be at the auction to bid on the helmets. Winners will have to make payment directly to the Make A Wish folks that will be there

I got offered 2.5K for the Jessy helmet at Comic Con 2009, hated to turn it down... and I also hear that Uncle George has his eye on a couple helmets!!!

Yeah, I wondered if Lucas knew of the helmets. Since he's doing a movie about the Tuskegee Airmen I'd imagine that he would find the helmet posted here quite interesting.

This is so unique and blends in so well at the same time. Astonishing.

Easily the best of the helmets that are going to be there. This is an absolute work of art. BEAUTIFUL job Turo!

 

[Deadland]

Great job Seeker!!

Does anyone know who one this in auction. I absolutely love this piece.

My understanding is Lucas himself got it, but I could be mistaken. I did point it out to him specifically when he was looking at the helmets, FYI!

He did nab Daniel Logan's helmet, and one other one.

Mine sold for $700, which I'm please about. It beat out some famous names which I'm surprised about. I was there to bid $250 just to make sure SOMEONE bid on it, but I didn't get a chance.
