  1. I have 2 sets of armour 5 helmets And 4 blasters
  2. This is going to be the mother of all replica DLT-19's amazing
  3. This qeustion was ANH stunt specific.. Dennis is right and has covered all the bases
  4. Although when using bars and screws there is a greater tendency for permanent failure, where as poppers will just undo. Velcro is just simply no good. The only place I would like to see it on a costume is holding the belt closed. It all depends if your looking for a practical or accurate build...
  5. The lens is attached by using the same screws that hold the ears on.
  6. It's easy to get ears to fit well if you know what you're doing, it's more of a personal choice if you want that look or go for a rough screen accurate build
  7. Andy was Boba Fat a very impolite person aka BFA then changed to DA aka Dark Agent...
  8. Interesting comparison between the hyperfirm and metal replica. It the all metal much longer or is it just the picture angle?
  9. Would be better a size smaller too
  10. The ones used in the films are White or off White. Generally the inside of the tips were still white with the outside being painted black. The mesh is usually plain metal colour. However some had the mesh painted black, some remained white or the paint rubbed off and some were a mix of the two.. Check out ref pics and choose the version you like
  11. If you want a true Hero style helmet then i guess a TM would be a good choice
  12. As I said before Dan - I love this blaster - totally awesome
  13. Avoid Matt aka TE
  14. Very nice A your builds are always amazing
  15. Looks great - just need to flip the foam the other way
  16. Its there on the Dan Laws lid nowadays too ----------
  17. Never worked on a gf lid - but the best decals in the galaxy are from mike - tk4510
  18. I think there was a lot of standing on boxes during filming - the guy who I'm working with who was a trooper in esb and Jedi said his first memory of filming empire was walking onto the sound stage and seeing a tall man standing on a box. When he asked what for, the reply was 'that's chewbacca's stand in!'
  19. The 2 space troopers were played by Joe Johnston and he's about 6'1
  20. Just been talking to him and yep - he was 5'9 when he did the filming He did say there were taller and shorter troopers than him ...
  21. It's not an exact science - but I am pretty good at guessing other peoples height and weight. I myself in barefeet stand at 5'11. I used to be taller until I shattered my pelvis. I wear boots that make me around 6'1. The actor I'm with today is shorter than me and obviously wearing shoes to work - but not anything that would add extra height. He's a good 2 inches shorter and at a guess I would put him at 5'9. Infect I've just been on imdb and that's what is says. He's taller than you John whichever way you look at it.
  22. Update: I have a guy working in my building this week that was a stormtrooper in ESB and ROTJ and I've just measured him. I stand at 6'1 in my work boots and he is a good 2 inches shorter than I am - so I guess he's around the 5'9 mark..
  23. My advice would be to leave the dremel well alone!!
  24. The guys from ukg who met some original troopers are all around the 5'7 mark and in armour were around the same height as those original guys.. Search through stukatroopers threads
