bluehickey Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Just wondering if a helmet is made out of fiberglass, is it a guaranteed recast? Are all of the real prop makers using ABS or Styrene only? Is there anyone making original helmets out of fiberglass? Just wondering, because I see plenty of good looking helmets on Ebay, but then they are made from fiberglass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTrooper Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 TE did make some fiberglass SFS helmets years ago, but there weren't many. The helmets on ebay that are fiberglass are all recast though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeR Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 No it doesn't. There are FG helmets by Oakley and TE's early Jedi ones too. Check www.starwarshelmets.com for more info. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 fiberglass almost always means recast. other than the ones listed above I can't think of any more FG helmets that are "legit" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 There are always FG lids on e-bay and god knows where they originate from. The only FG lid I own is the TE SFS which I was lucky to obtain completed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
