Thanks Steve! Aren't the Tandy leather clips kind of flimsy? Jess

Yep, same guy... this was the helmet he sold me.

Leia "Hold Me" or " Your Father!?"

I feel terrible is probably the one line I use the most from that film. And I didn't use it!

YAY!!!

Someone please answer this before I lose it! C'mon!!

Looks good man!

"I Know" or "And I thought they smelt bad... on the outside"

"You are part of the rebel alliance and a traitor, take her away!!" or "I sense something, a presence I've not felt since..."

I bought it from this guy at Sullivan's Classic Arms. The business checked out ok online.

I just bought one of these for $100

If so powerful you are... why leave? Faith in your new apprentice misplaced may be, as is your faith in the dark side of the force.

A very good point! And it really all depends on how YOU want it to look. If you did want the ears tighter, it would probably be best to mark them with a pencil (while the ears are mounted to the helmet), any areas that may need additional trimming/sanding down. just follow the curve of the helmet, match it up best you can. Here's a few pics from my last AP lid build (below), it's about the best job I've done on ears.

I used 1" squares, x 3/16" thick. I got them-----

Maybe trim (the round part) of the ears down a little (1/8"), sand them against a flat surface so it's even? And get rid of the small return on the back of the ears as well... The eyes could be a little bigger (not much), again just get rid of that edge. That's my two cents. Also, I would get some different brow trim, that stuff stains the ABS. I had used it on my 1st AP lid, and it made it yellow all around it. Get the good stuff from seals direct.

"Anakin Skywalker, meet Obiwan Kenobi!" "Anakin, drop!!"

Here's how I cut mine...

Make it count brother!! Happy B-Day! Jess

I think I need to adjust my drop boxes.

I glued velcro to some elastic, velcro on the inside of the ab plate, snaps on the inside of the thighs.

Wow, and it's the 1st one of it's kind! Those are harder to come by.

I would cut here: They were pretty short in the movies.
