Questions about the Pre-Pro 1 Fett

[Neo Fett]

I'm not an expert but I don;t see the two seams we know are on the ROTJ cape in the photos of the PP1 cape demo shots. RotJ tent cape has lengthwise seams a few inches from the edges on both sides. This PP1 does not. But the material does look like it has the same heaviness of the tent material and may just be cut from a different location of the tent. Could def be an army tent.

Huh, interesting. Good point. The little metal thing on the ROTJ hero cape has to be the same kind of mechanism that PP1 had though, right? So I perhaps they fitted a few capes with the metal thing? If it's not left over from the Baker clip, I have no idea what it could be bolted onto the hero cape.

oh yeah, 100% its the thing for the Baker clip. Either the same one from the PP1 or an extra.

I could see them making two capes from one shelter, adding that clip to both, and one of them broke.

I assume the cape used in ROTJ was a promotion suit part?
