I’m fighting to convince myself to stay on target with my ”Imperials only” rule when I see that!

 

[irezumi]

Congrats! Looks fantastic

I don't have an "Imperias only" rule. All the helmets I have are Imperials, but that's only because the baddies always look cooler .... aaaannd that's mostly what's out there.
A couple of X-Wing helmets would be a nice addition. & a Red 5 is a MUST!!!

Does anyone know if you can take the Gentle Giant Limited Edition Death Trooper helmet off it's stand and display without stand?

I saw a YouTube video, & it looked like you can remove the stand. However, you can not wear it.

That's correct. GG does not have the license for wearable collectibles.

Sigh... I know need the RS Red 5. It would be so boss in some type of configuration with my XM snow speeder Luke. Gotta pay attention to this thread moving forward for details on how to order.

e-mail RS Propmasters and ask them to notify you when a new batch becomes available. I agree it would look great with the XM Luke. I'll be displaying mine with my eFX X-Wing and MR Snowspeeder. I'd love an XM Luke to complete the display

What is the long cord that comes out from inside the helmet? How was that used in the movie?
Looks really nice and I'm looking forward to having one in my collection!

 

[DarthRusty]

The microphone?

 

[hobbitjedi]

No, the longer cord that comes down from inside the helmet, not the microphone that comes from the side of the helmet. The longer cord is sort of tucked into the helmet.

The black part of the chin strap?

 

[hobbitjedi]

I highlighted the piece I was wondering about.
Any idea if it was part of the original helmet or added on and for what purpose when there is a microphone that comes off the side of the helmet too?

 

[Jaycepticon]

It was an accurate piece on the original helmet so they’re usually included in replicas. It just sort of hangs there.

That is the cable used to connect the headset (which was inside the screen used helmets) to the com unit. In the real world, these headsets were Vietnam war era items.


An interesting tidbit, these same headsets were used in Alien.

The Schwartz will be with me.... always.

What is the best place to buy the Master replica lightsabers (the sabers that come with a hold and can be put in the case).

 

[DarthAlias]

Pretty much ebay.

And forums like Rebeslcum

Got it, thanks so much for clarifying that!
So did the actors wear the whole heat set while they had the helmet on or did the prop maker just put the microphone and cable inside the helmet?
