Mouser73 Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 A way back in my younger days I purchased a DP standard. Now as I am thinking of doing my first build I have been giving it a good look over and I think I will start with a better foundation. Maybe Anovos. But that still leaves me left with the Don Post version. With the proportions and other work needed on it I got curious if this helmet could be a base for a different stormtrooper variant? If so which type? or is it even worth the effort? Maybe there is a use for the helmet that I'm not thinking of. Any ideas would be welcome.

T K[501st] Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Well the DP kinda looks RotJ. Maybe you could paint it up to look like an imperial shocktrooper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouser73 Posted October 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 That would make a great display piece. I hadn't even thought of a Shocktrooper. The one thing I wonder about this lid is the size of the eyes. They seem a tad undersized and too far apart. Maybe I'm wrong but I'm not sure.

Mouser73 Posted October 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Here is a couple of pics I took awhile ago before I took the eye and foam ears off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 I don't know how common, or not, the DP are now but I'd be leaving it be as a part of the history of everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouser73 Posted October 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 I had thought about bringing it back to original but it has had a hard life with moves and kids getting their hands on it so there is work to be done anyways. I kind of sealed it's fate on Monday anyways. Anovos had their sale on FO stormtrooper helmets and I "accidentally" hit add to cart on a full armour kit of a original stormtrooper as well. I will probably sidelining this project for a bit with the new suit coming but then again Q1 is still a bit of time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
