Thanks guys. It is a hard to find helmet because only one original exists from the 2 ever made. So no licensed company will ever get hands on the original one which is in private hands. And mine upgraded like this is way better than Laws version, with better and sharper pull.

The most beautiful and screen accurate Stormtrooper stunt helmet just arrived - SiMan RS Prop Masters:











The story of the original prop on RPF: http://www.therpf.com/f45/original-1977-anh-stormtrooper-armor-helmet-95954/index25.html#post1683204


My first SiMan helmet was lost in the mail, Royal Mail sent it elsewhere (Burkina Faso or Tataouine Tunisia maybe LOL), and on their tracking site it says it is returning to sender. But RS Prop Masters didn't wait and sent me a replacement which arrived fast, well packed and in perfect shape. The most accurate Stormtrooper helmet is here! And it is SUPERB too. :)

Thanks. Glad I got this one since the first got lost in mail.  There are a couple more helmets I'm waiting for and another thing and then I'll show all of them together. For now there is enough space for all the existing and pre-ordered helmets here. I indeed am going to make a new cabinet/display case for the TIE section where there will be the eFX TIE Fighter and the SDS TIE pilot armor bust.

Finally the great Sandtrooper "Move Along" inspired helmet by Madrid Boba arrived, it was one of the few I was missing from my bucket collection. And you can see his talent at work again, all the attention to details and a wonderful assembly. A superb helmet! :)










Madrid Boba made a few superb helmets as seen here:

Thanks Damien! It is a great Sandtrooper bucket indeed, with all the warps and wonkiness the originals had, with great paint apps on this "Move Along" inspired helmet. Madrid Boba is well known on RPF and FISD/501st forums where he made a few superb custom helmets before. I was lucky I could ask him to do one for me, and at an unbeatable price.

Thanks Shawn, but not yet. New helmets are coming, some changes of display will be made inside the cabinets, a new cabinet will be ordered in the near future in the other room for the TIE Fighter section. :) After that I can say the collection will be displayed as I wanted. O0

You have every right to use the, "  O0 ", symbol, Serg!  I can't believe how amazing your collection STILL is, and that's after viewing this thread multiple times.  Extremely cool!  There's only one I've seen surpass it, and that's Trev, but yours is the greatest Imperial collection.   :D
