Gypsyboy's 90% scale ROTJ

I needed a smaller helmet to troop in, and with a bit of persuasion GB scratch built this one for me. It is a one-off. I think I will see if I can talk him into pulling another copy so I have a back up. The dome needs repainting as the paint didn't like the plastic resin very much.

JB's ANH V2 Master

I have have been told that this is a 20th Century face with a GH dome. Everything is propped in place and the tusks are off. I have those but removed them for storage. One of these days I will get a proper display case built.

The JB ANH V2 is already on the list, but the Gypsyboy 90% RotJ sure isn't. I'll add that as soon as I can. :cheers

Added a new section for Rubies Supreme Reworks... and have placed illbethere1's excellent creation as the first on the list.

Reason for this is that the list wasn't really created for reworks, but simply for what was available... however, there are several DP DLX reworks on the list though... so it's a bit tricky. The list may evolve more in the future, but in order to not make it seem cluttered with reworks... I thought it best to start splitting up the list more. It may tank and revert back to simple lists again... but here goes. :thumbsup

Just came across this!

What a great thread and resource!! Thanks so much No Humor Man!

Suggestion: Do you think we can do a thread for the other parts too? Like Chest armor, Chest box, etc. as a resource for members?

What do you guys think?

Nice man! What's the origins of this helmet/mask?

Alex SL4182, a member here, sculpted it as a scratch build. He ran into some financial problems and sold the original so it could be molded by someone else. It turned out very nice.

Thanks Bubba!

Sweet! Looks great!

Yeah, I particularly like the dome shape. Although the left brow looks a little off in that second shot for some reason.

NHM - Seem like we could replace the ESB shot of the TM with one of the other pics from the thread. I know it is the same helmet, just that the other shot looks a little better.

While I am on the subject, I think it would be nice to have a shot of a screen helmet included with the line up for comparisons sake. I think it is fascinating seeing them all side by side. I never realized how many ROTJ helmets there were out there. :eek

Yeah, an orig screen front shot would be great.

The brow of the dome or the brow of the mask?

Sorry, dome.

BTW - runnriottt owns the helmet now. Great looking piece :thumbsup
