Thanks guys.
Sorry Derek but the Dark Side always had the cooler looker lids :thumbsup:
The story from the seller on the casting is that the original is from Cheltenham film studios. Heroes For Sale was a company based there and few years ago Heroes went into liquidation. The seller on eBay was working on a project with the Sci-Factory who had bought most of Heroes For Sale\'s stock and was given the helmet as part payment on completion of a project. Guessing he then took a casting off that bucket and now sells them on. So my understanding is that this is a recast of a studio sold replica, could well be a DP. Whatever the story behind it I\'m well chuffed with it :happy:
The little tags are from a company here in the UK [url=\"http://www.3ddisplays.co.uk/index.htm\"]3D Displays[/url] the same place I get my stands from (hat display stands :wink: ) They do ship worldwide but they have a £25 minimum order, about $45 ish so bare that in mind if you go searching on their site and spot something :thumbsup:
And it\'s always good to receive the official...
