JoeR

Has anyone heard from RS? No response from email or pm... Excuse the OT.

Awesome suit! You are one lucky guy. TM is one of the few people to trim the ears and fit them properly, not too fat on the trimming! Joe

Very nice Mark. Joe

Nice to see one of my babies chromed! Great work Mark. Joe

Awesome and how a JoeR/CfO should be built! Great work Caleb, really does Mark's kit justice.

My helmet pictured above came directly from the docking bay set of ROTJ so they could easily have been used in ROTJ but no screengrab evidence has been seen. You cannot say for sure they are ESB only without evidence... I agree though that they may have been made at the time of ESB but I believe they were re-used in ROTJ. They could easily be promo helmets as GINO suggested, no way to tell without solid evidence. FYI The Propmasters Mk II helmet came from a extra on ROTJ.

Mark sells on eBay, it is ridiculous to say that all eBay armour is rubbish. There are bargains to be had, just take some time to some research first.

Really really sorry to hear this. Condolences from Fran, Ollie and I. Just sent you a text.... Joe

Awesome, I would have killed for one of these when I was his age. Muchos Dad points mate! Joe

I thought this picture of the ear moulds might help to show how thin the original ones were trimmed. Awesome work Rich, keep the pictures coming! JoeR

Wow!!!!!! Makes me want to build one! Joe

Thanks for sharing. Awesome to see this preserved. Joe

The lengths you geeks go to! .....

Thanks Matt Great news! Joe

Looking good mate. You have the perfect build for a ROTJ trooper, no excess baggage! :-)

Great news on the fund raising. Thanks to everyone that has been involved or donated. Joe R

Great build mate. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Joe

You have been a busy boy already! Good luck with the build, can't wait to see what you do with the kit. Seeing the amazing work you did with your TM's I know this will be awesome. Joe

I think the Fenixprops stuff on eBay is slightly more accurate but that does look cheap. I think Pete aka Stukatrooper looked into it. Joe

Awesome work Tom. It's amazing what you guys can do with the am kits. Joe

Awesome, I love to see what people do with Mark's creation... Have you tried Fenix props on eBay for the white trim? Joe

I would love to know. SiMan would know as he sanded it off his original helmet (that sounds really gay!). Maybe e could analyse the few flakes that are left on the original? I would love to know. Joe

Thanks for the kind words fellas. In the past I have done the finding of the good stuff. All the moulding and craftsmanship has been down to Mark. Thanks also to Gavin, Keith and Pete and Rob. Joe

Looking forward to this build up. Cameron, you should meet up with Cameron Oakley in Tasmania, he owned the original armour that this was cast from...! Joe

Decals have been ordered from the printer. Hopefully ready next week....
