[NikNak aka]

What do you guys think of Rock Island Maroon as the pink?

 

[Slowmo]

has anyone looked at the Euro Dark Green for the back panel or is it to dark?

NikNak, as I mentioned it in post #136 I think it's still too reddish.

Not sure if you guys know this but here is a back shot of the PrePro2 "Promo" helmet in the Gallery section of the PP3.

 

[Fett 4 Real]

oooooo ahhhhhh maybe a package deal from mojo for this...maybe?

 

[Mojo Fett]

Cheers for the pic Spidey! Missed that one... Lol
Already started the basics on these.

 

[stormtrooperguy]

hrm.... the red in that back shot is interesting. it almost looks like there's a white(ish) mist over the whole thing.

So that is actually the back of what was called the "Sandy" helmet...the one that is really, really busted up now?

 

[Fett 4 Real]

Well the ROTJ helmet is a "sandy" helmet too and the MQ1 area looks very similar...but thats the PP2 the GMH was casted from

Yeah, I get that smarty.
What I meant was the one many consider the ugliest of the helmets.
I always heard of that particular one being called simply the "Sandy Helmet".
