Not trying to "bum" a free link to my own active auction, but I figured this could best be answered in the forum's Helmet section.
I have been asked by an ebay member to post photos of my #48 Don Post fiberglass deluxe Fett helmet to the forum(s) for confirmation that it is indeed a true DP Fett Deluxe, and not a "knock-off" as he feels that it is. I know that they are are comparing my helmet to online pics of the PropStore's Fett DP #2 (which had a wildly different paint scheme, and lights in the range finder).
As I am at work and don't have ready access to the original photos, I am linking my auction below, which has several photos.
Licensed Boba Fett fiberglass deluxe helmet Don Post 1996 LOW NUMBER | eBay
Of note, I am not the original owner, but I have had the helmet for over 10 years. No COA or box.
I have NOT modified the helmet.
The ear pieces are metal, as is the rangefinder stalk.
The internal brass plaque (see photo) reads #48.
The visor is mounted flush with the red mandible trim.
The T-visor cut out is much smaller than the visor.
The helmet is padded / lined.
The helmet "damage" is actually scraped into the mold itself.
This thing is heavy, and I have always considered it legit. I would appreciate any input as to otherwise.
Thanks!
