Prep up on rotj gauntlets

[bobawomble]

Hello again all !
I've just been working on my gauntlets which I've finally got to doing and this is how far I've got, ill be adding the progress as I work on them.

Pretty sure those are Jango gaunts, not ROTJ.
That rocket gauntlet is for Jango/Pre Prod 2. ESB/ROTJ doesn't have the second platform into the rocket. The dental expander greeblee above the keypad is also incorrect.
You're also missing the two hose connectors under the whipcord housing and on the other gauntlet.

Jango gauntlets have no key pad at all or anyplace to put one. Those are ROTJ gauntlets, I am not saying they are screen accurate but they aren't Jango.

Gotcha, well in that case it's differently a Pre Prod 2 gauntlet with a ROTJ flame thrower.

Edit: Almost looks to be Pre Prod 2 all around just with an ROTJ flamethrower and whipcord housing plus a custom dental expander greeble.

Ha thanks for all the side line remarks and observations ! Did I forget to mention I was still working on them but have done as much as I'm going to do ! so without further ado here they are finished !

And in response to your observations yes the greeble is custom made out of a plastic speaker connector from Halfords and the gauntlets are my first attempt at ROTJ'S. The lights on the right are operated by the switches and the same with the left gauntlet light that also blinks. Thank you for the feed back and the guess work

Update: I'm now working on redoing the left gauntlet. And I'm sure if anybody else wants to give negative feed back ill get it !
for the love of god !
having a hobby sure turned into a perfection dilemma

Love your gauntlet work!

Can you tell me what product or color did you use it for the prep job?
