Well-Known Hunter
As some of you saw I bought FP's Budget Boba helmet mold and wondered what I was going to do with. Well, the wait is over. I have always wanted a cold cast Boba helmet that I can troop in. Now I can make my cold cast Boba helmet.

Some of the items that I like about helmet:
  • MQ-1 board cast info keyslots - with in cast in, to me there is more room in the helmet
  • Ears molded in - Now I don't need to worry if they are on right!

Last night I got the first cast done. What do you think?

What I like about this in CC is for those that can't swing aluminum ears, there's almost kind of a consolation prize here. ;)
 
Yeah id have thort there isnt much question on the liniage of these , plus to write Asok above sound simple enough but it would consit of making a new mold or scalpeling it out of the sillicon which really wouldnt be advised guess you could brand it in but most sills have a resistance of up to 185 degress sellcious
 
Asok, I'd be in for one as soon as you are ready to sell em!!! :) My wife is definitely going to look at me funny, but oh well she kinda does that anyway...
 
If I get this one I will have 4... and I haven't built out my storage closet yet for my fetts and other SW Universe costumes and weapons and other stuff... Once I build that I should have plenty of storage space for everything...
