Cool! Again mine are also Boba Maker! Also being a novice at this, I just finished them a couple weeks ago. As far as my knowledge goes ROTJ has a couple different variants they are called "Hero" and "SE". I think SE is more of what is seen in the promo shots and the Hero variant is more of what you saw on screen in the movie. But again, being a novice I myself am not 100% on that. When I started my research on a ROTJ Boba, I landed on using the 501st CRL pics they had on file. This pic, which I grabbed in December 2019, got retired in March of 2020. It has since been replaced....

Now....let it be known that I'm NOT going to be attempting to get myself 501st certified, but I gotta say I'm NOT a fan of the 501st new gauntlet CRL pic, maybe its just me.....I dunno. Having said that, I opt'd to emulate the paint/weathering job of the above pic.....here was my end result.....

I know from the pics its difficult to tell, but where it is supposed to be silver (I know....it looks grey)....it is indeed chrome/silver. (I used Tamiya X-11) I used an airbrush to do the entire set. I thought they came out great. Boba Maker's stuff is nice isn't it?
