Jango helmet opinions?

Any opinions on this helmet? Anyone know the story behind it?

Without a doubt it's a Jango and not a Boba, but I'm thinking it might be one of those ILM helmets. For one, it looks exactly like a screen cast helmet. It's also in Australia where they filmed AOTC. I'm not sure what the whole story is behind them though. I'd ask on TDH, but they have that "no live auction" rule.

Should I bite? :lol

I'm worried it might be the outcome of several recasts, which would make the helmet very tiny.

Why don't you ask the seller for some better pics?

Ahh crap...

I got an email back, but the name on the email was "Bentley O'Toole". It sounded familiar, so I did a search on the RPF and came up with this.

This man ripped me off for over $400.He laid excuse after excuse with me and my patience is finally up.
Furthermore he is selling fake pieces.He recently listed what he claimed was an original Dooku stunt mold and it was in fact fan-made and cast from an original saber NOT an original FOX mold.He also recently listed what he claimed was an original FOX droid blaster production casting but this is also a recast.He is NOT to be trusted.I am not the only person I know of to have had problems with him but i have just reached the end of the line with him.
Once again:BENTLEY O'TOOLE
DO NOT DEAL WITH HIM

Way too shady a history for my comfort. Plus, from the pictures he sent, it's a lousy looking casting anyway with a bunch of air bubbles and such. Oh well. :rolleyes

I did buy off this guy a while back but the sale went dead because he wasnt shipping the item when he said he did. Got very currious and searched for more info on the tracking number he gave me, it was a phony! I told him I would file a complaint and leave a neg. feed back and luckily he refunded me infull. So yah, I would stay away.
