Interest Return of The Jedi Darth Vader Production Made Lineage Helmet "JBR"
- Thread starter DOGFOX2109
- Start date
This is an exciting thread. I have a CFO raw hemet and always wanted a finished lineage ROTJ helmet.
Not sure if my eyes are playing tricks on me,... For my clarity, I want to ask if this below image of the finished helmet/dome mold...
is the same one/mold as these:

Hi Skoota73 sorry for my delayed response in short yes however there is some lens distortion going off in some of the pictures, that and only the first picture Mask 1 has the bolts installed providing a stable placement/ seating of the dome and mask if that makes sense.
Those shots are in order Mask 1 with bolts / 3d printed raw prototype / Prototype painted wrong mesh / Original BR
Ill post some more shots for review.
Because of the geometry of Vader its like trying to photograph a chameleon.

I know the lineage, but still it looks simply like you stole it from the ROTJ set. Just incredible.
No guilt intended whatsoever, but if I don't get one I will die. My wife will be devastated, as will my children. My elderly parents will likely die from pain. I am only 53. So many years left to live.
I don't want you to feel any guilt though.

we will all be devastated if we lost you Tom. I think the sudden drop of smillies use on the RPF will be felt as a great disturbance in the forceI know the lineage, but still it looks simply like you stole it from the ROTJ set. Just incredible.

great work again DOGFOX2109
Thank you for the complements guys I'm really trying to capture that ROTJ look and style. In response to some queries I've received this is a linage cast not idealized in any way bar the repairs made to the original BR. If you are looking for clean lines, clean paint and finish then this helmet is not the helmet for you. Just to be clear EFX may be better suited to your needs.

Update on pricing / shipping and availability
I know this has not been posted before hand and this has not been deliberate
Price point for the BR ROTJ helmet set will be £1450 plus shipping invoice via PayPal (plus fees) or Barclays Bank business account direct invoice for Studio 77 prop replicas.
For transparency I have to abide by the HMRC UK Tax regulations which unfortunately can not be avoided and we do not want the tax man coming to our doors. This has impacted the cost of the helmets so sorry if this is not the price point expected.
We are not responsible for any import duties in your respective countries and all parcels will be tracked / insured with signatures required and delivery photos the whole nine yards when we get to that point.
We reserve the right to not to do business with parties or individuals which are (to the best of our knowledge) and / or parties that engage in morally or ethically unsound behavior's / activities.
We will reply to all interest list emails and if there is more demand than the 20 currently being produced we will cross that bridge at that point. Full disclosure there are currently 55 expressions of interest at the time of writing this post.
Due mainly to space / storage constraints the original plan of getting them all finished then for sale is not looking realistic. 5/6 helmets hopefully will be ready the second week of January 2025.
Finally these helmets are not for the idealized / sanitized collector; this is a warts and all lineage 2nd gen helmets hand painted and finished just to reaffirm this point.

as mentioned, I am not unhappy about the time frame on these since end of January '25 would be way more comfortable for me to pay.
thank you for all the pics and the updates!
