Mike's right about the back being a bit wider than it should be on my GH stuff. After I initially offered these (sheesh, maybe 2004?) I did a batch modifying the width which was real easy to do by pulling the casting while still "green" and just flexing it closed to the proper width and let it cure that way. That's why there's two versions of the GH stuff out there. The copy Phil got from me was one of these. I traded him a set for something I can't even remember now. Shortly after that I began to hear about and eventually see Phil's offerings. I guarantee that his armor was molded from the set I sent him, with whatever minor changes he might have made. I used to believe my original set (the GH master casting) came from Jim leonard, who had had a copy of all the ANH armor at one time; but later on came to believe that it was possibly a ROTJ set from LFL sent to Michael Burnett. I haven't made these in years and am basically out of the game all together now.
This post is just for the record.
