I bought bucket without browsing the Imperial Commissary here. it was listed as

 

Quote
Up for auction is a T*E ANH Stormtrooper Helmet. It has been vacuum-formed in .60ga (15mm) (Same thickness as the original helmets) Styrene and is screen accurate with movie linage. The molds used to create the helmet up for auction were created from a helmet that was cast from a screen worn bucket.

 

It looks ok, but then all I have seen is pictures or from a distance at Cons. Its my first one, so I am gonna make mistakes. Does the top look a lot larger than the faceplate?

 

So is this an ANH? There are no markings inside, or sig to say who made it.

Thanks

Your pix are missing, so I can't really tell ya... but I will make an educated guess....

 

It sounds like, and if you got it off of Ebay, then it was more than likely "MAKEROFTHINGS"

 

MAKEROFTHINGS is a recaster of Tony's (TE2) lid and armor. Recasting is not permitted.

 

Between MAKEROFTHINGS, PirateTrooper and a half dozon other unscrupulous characters out there making recast of Tony's kits, you have to be very careful who you deal with. :angry:

 

Is this the guy you got the lid from?

funny, I can see my pics. Since its my first bucket, I will use it for practice on how to make a decent helmet.

its likely a permission thing with my host
