I thought I'd start the ball rolling with this - here is the IH Tie helmet.

Looking real good... a shame the the frontal shot of the helmet is cropped at the top and the bottom.

But once I get the thumbnails made of the various helmets, you may have to move these larger pictures to a later post... and then I'll update in your first post... or would that be complicated?

Here's mine

SDS Lid on TE/Laws CHestbox and Armour

And then the both of them together. Pics taken last summer, somehow Ive lots the little widgets fro the TIE that Keith kindly got for me (theyre lying around the place somewhere), hence theyre missing from these pics.

Ive got the TE/Laws TIE helmet too but imo its not as accurate, hecne the swap

Cheers

Any idea what the original parts were for those widgets Jez ?
I've seen someone use these they're car door panel clips

Yeah thats right

IIRC they are used to hold the INNER door facade against the door bodywork on 70's and 80's cars. Essentially you hold the facade into place and pop the plastic rivets into the hole which secures them into place
