Yep Its fairly obvious they're present on the PrePro #2 exterior, they just hang there lol...
You can see why they tried to hide them in ESB and ROTJ for the most part except for that half ass attempt on John.
I always wondered wtf that was because it never looked like the braids to me like a lot of people probably thought..
It's no wonder such a minor detail went amiss on the board this whole time because its only like that for one scene for like a couple seconds.
...But as we all know, small details go along way for authenticity!! I completely respect the dedication OM. This is the exact kind of dedication I've dream of since I was 12 years old when I discovered this place existed. I can't stress enough how much I love your build and thank you so much for sharing your sourced parts info. Its much appreciated, all my years being on the board this is surprisingly new to me finding out about the XLR cables brand/model no.

Simply can't decide which setup for the XLR I will choose for my Fett...I kind of favour this look the most..this setup used on Jeremy shown in the 'White Cloud City Hallway' photoshoot. It seems pretty hidden for the majority of the film, is that the intended way it was meant to be rigged? Its probably not..it doesn't appear to be showing in any other shots of that photoshoot as far as I can tell..

ROTJ's setup was similar in some scenes, especially with the stuntman.
Its really hard to say what the true look of Fett is supposed to be...I quote one of my buddies best lines he's ever told me: "about as inconsistent as my ex girlfriend"
from scene to scene because of the wardrobe department never truly remembering 100% or rushing him on set... it was such a small part at the end of the day but no one even imagined the popularity he'd get..such a special character.
I've always imagined Fett using different armours/gadgets for every mission to explain his drastic armour differences in the films...the helmet changes is another story lol.
Apologies for briefly going off topic there
simply can't wait to see the paint job on that armour!!
