Also notice the type of "yellowing" on the hero helmet.....specifically that it is scratched or wiped away....dead giveaway of layers of nicotine non filtered cigarette smoke covering it.....clean the helmet up then try color matching. Just my 2 francs

Looks like it walked off the set.

ahh. so we come full circle from rec.arts.starwars. co. molds are markII. so are cfo armor molds actually mk2 ? or rotj? <br><br> with the costumes book, and the new french one, the cats are getting out of the bag, so to speak

krylon fusion. its for plastics. used it on donpost royal guard that was vinyl, and it survived many bends and drops. cures well to abs and styrene also

ANYTHING that the rocketeer is involved in is awesome. seen his antman helmet? this has been played out many times before with all movies.....these guys will deliver quality helmets before premier date, all depends upon what you want... we are all recasters. you all know this. want to wait three years for anovos to produce a crappy interpretation? technology is fast, these guys have a system, and no. I dont have any of their helmets, but would if i had the funds......

there is a picture of the back of the troopers left thigh that appears to use another new attachmemt method, the thigh is split apart on the mannequin

This is an expensive hobby, and you are only buying one suit, not obsessively collecting all 9, so yes it will cost you, but buy what you want and you will never regret it ..... nickel diming for a few hundred bucks only factors in if you want to resell at a profit....

You newbies have no idea. Learn your history. Why things were done then, and why they are done now... I'm a rivet counter like the rest of you, but If you weren't there in 76 then you have no right to criticise what was done... armchair quarterbacks in the digital age don't know what REC.ARTS.STARWARS was. It paved they way for everyone to nag and complain now about what is essentially a tool (prop costume) used to tell a story, embrace the suits, this forum, and enjoy the movie.....

Buy the whole RS Kit. With RS helmet, the RS helmet is key to the look, their armor is armor....Keep the anovos helmet as a knock around helmet, and one you can let friends try on, it has a larger opening....

Remember your history of Star Wars. The first movie was shot on film...intentionally softened to evoke the Gone With the Wind style, and most shots were done with lace OVER the camera lenses to soften the images,, also the design aesthetic was to not have any one thing stand out, but blend in to the rest of the shot. So as to keep the viewer engrosed in the story....ONCE DIGITAL came out in the 90s. The original starwars was killed for good. <br><br> New Times. New suits. Everything has a reason, and I do not doubt the movie experience in the THEATER for R1 will be awesome

Interesting that they made a nod to the screws. But glues like a rotj. Tears look like anovos. Whole helmets sharpness also

Sure theyre the movie suits, just throwing it out there that these photos are staged for media promotional images, not necessarily screen shots from the movie itself...

guys. this is a PROMO picture. just like all those from the 70s. doubtful if this Suppposed screenshot is even in the movie. its a photo shoot for the media taken after filming.... just like all those shots of that hero suit after ANH. OBVIOUSLY the suits were designed for mobility. you ever worn a screen used ANH ? ITS JUST ANOTHER CORPORATE WATERED DOWN VERSION OF THE STORMTROOPER SUIT SO IT CAN BE SOLD TO MANY DIFFERENT BODY TYPES, in the REAL movie, if you didnt fit in the costume, you didnt get the part....
