The original was 1" copper pipe. At the never sleep again signing Lou carlucci had a book witha bunch of photos of him building the Hero glove.. All the pieces were copper pipe.

looking at movie stills from the movie,the part 1 glove was not made using real thick copper pipes.

He even indicated that this influenced the way Freddy stands, with shoulders tilted.

I went straight to the source and asked Mike Becker if the armature is heavy and he said it's "pretty light". Case closed. Remember... we were also told that the knives that were used on the original glove were Ekco steak knives... and we all know what baloney that was.

What Becker finds pretty light, Englund might find pretty heavy, so really all of these anecdotes are meaningless. Get Becker to put it on a scale and then it will be case closed.
