It's the benchmark for the ANH helmet, IMO. It has "the look" from every angle....love it!

Totally agreed. I've been bugging him for the last few years to consider a short run.

...and I'm doing it again! :lol

Paint stuff!! Was going to add this - to get that shiny/ not shiny effect on this helmet I mentioned before that I used a Turtle Wax product. After not doing Vader heads for the longest time I started getting back into it of late and was looking for that Turtle Wax paste I used for the DJ and it is simply called "Rubbing Compound" - it is stated to be a kind of cleaner and is an orangy brown paste. But "Rubbing Compound" and comes in a hockey puck container. If you are painting a head and wait 7 days for your paint to dry, test out some of this on the dome (or a practice dome surface!!!!!) to see the effect. To get off the residue when done, I simply use dishwashing soap like Dawn.
