1 Pipe or 3

Ok guys I am moving forward with my SE fett to fine tune its details a little, and I have a simple question I need answering as I haven't be able to nail it down....

On the SE Fett would you say the right Gauntlet has 1 or all 3 pipes in it.... I would like evidence to support the one pipe as that what I have seen more of....


So 1.......or......3
 
The ROTJ SE had 1 hose on the right gauntlet (only the ROTJ had 3 hoses):

It is on the wrong arm, but the same setup:

The left gauntlet hose (attached to the rocket) is present only in the ROTJ SE promo shots, as the last image (with the gauntlet on the wrong arm) shows no hose on the movie version.

The ANH SE had the same setup, more exactly only one hose on the right gauntlet and none on the left:

Raf...... you are never wrong. And so it is written I can use the one hose...

This helps me out physically, as I have circulation issues in my arms and the amount of pressure all three pipes have are emense, so going down to the one hose will help loads.. I did think the left side looked all wrong with the pipe held on with tape ha... the rest of the SE I can work out as there are a few differences for sure....but the pipe thing was bothering me...
 
Wow. As many times as I have looked at those SE promo shots I don't think I ever noticed that hose on the rocket.

Yeah I personally really hate that look. It just makes no real sense to me. That was one of the reasons I ended up going straight ROTJ.

I know what you mean, rocking the one pipe will look like you got it all wrong as everyone always expects to see the 3 pipes, unless you are ,RafalFett who always spots things no one else can :lol:

but for long troops I mean like 6 hours a time the resistance is just to much to take on my wrist..... and I don't have a costume department like a movie set has to take it all apart between takes, I am in the outfit for the day..... So that said I am happy with the SE version of Fett, I like the ESB lid, I like the ROTJ looks and that's basically what the SE is, with the bonus of the one pipe. Its a win win for me personally... (y)
 
I'm so glad you're allowed to take creative liberties after being approved. I only wear the one hose on my SE's right gauntlet and I couldn't be anymore happier.
 
Since this thread is on sarlacc pit i can say it.... i thing every SE Fett should have this mustache to be accurate :D:lol:
always reminds my a bit of Weird Al Yankovic:confused
 
I try to see Don as the Walter White type of guy - unassuming but bat poop crazy and will mess you up - it still doesn't look right.
