Studio Scale Special Operations Troop Helmet Replica





The official reproduction of the Special Operations Troop Helmet from Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith is constructed of gloss-painted fiberglass with the aerators and chin module added on as separate, painted, injection-molded parts. Specially decorated with blue accents representing the Special Ops, the helmet is padded and wearable with lenses formed from a see-through, tinted, plastic sheet. Measures approximately 13"T x 10.3"W x 11.5"D. Helmet comes with a custom display, numbered plaque, and certificate of authenticity.



Prop Story



As the Clone Wars race inexorably toward their tumultuous conclusion, Jedi Knights fighting alongside battalions of Clone troopers are spread throughout the galaxy engaging the droid armies of General Grievous and the Separatists.



Yoda, on the Wookiee world of Kashyyyk, leads a special Elite Corp in defense of this woodland world. His Clonetroopers sport a unique camouflage paint scheme designed to allow them to invisibly blend into the densely forested world. Elsewhere, Anakin Skywalker's Special Ops Troops, identified by a unique bright blue stripe emblazoned on their helmets and chest plates, follow their dashing commander in his many heroic feats. Even Supreme Chancellor Palpatine has his own regiment -- the fearsome Shock Troops. Bold red stripes across their helmets clearly identify them as the ultimate strata in the Republic's cloned forces.



However, this army of the Republic was created under mysterious circumstances - called into existence by a shadowy puppet master. And now, as the wars reach their devastating climax, this devious, dark force manipulates his pawns and makes his grand move. As the pieces of this unsolved puzzle shockingly fall into place the Jedi finally learn the true nature of the clones...



To create the Clone trooper helmet replica, Master Replicas was provided with the original ILM digital character files. From these, a 3D model was generated to use as a master pattern to create accurate molds from which the helmets were produced in high quality fiberglass. Since the original computer renders were used, you can be assured that the Clone trooper helmet is an exact replica, accurately repeating the multitude of subtle shapes and curves that make up this incredible piece of armor that bridges the gap between the Clone trooper forces of the prequels and the Stormtroopers of the classic trilogy.Prototype pictured and subject to change.

Worldwide edition size of 750 pieces.
