Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Well, I got my first helmet today! I picked up the Stormtrooper for a very good price although I may have to send it back due to a minor ding as circled below. It's more noticeable in person and is quite a rough patch, but other than that, I love the helmet! The one i'd really like to hunt for now is Commander Gree and a run of the mill Clone Trooper. The one problem I have with this scale / line is as soon as I propped the helmet up in my apartment, I immediately saw all the space around it saying "I could put a few more lined up here..."

Very nice pics, Boba. They do look great in a lineup.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I'm still trying to get a couple of the all white clone trooper. One for collection and the other for customization.

There is a C-3PO not a very good scultp IMO. There are also X-Wing pilot helmets. Don't want these in my collection.

So for what I want to collect, I guess I will have them all when the new ones arrive.

When Gentle Giant starts up their production, I will start collection them again if they come up with some new sculpts. At that point the insanity starts again.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Since my focus are OT/EU Imperials I only have these three helmets: MR Stormtrooper, MR Blackhole Stormie and Riddell Darth Vader (signed by Dave Prowse)

Utapau Shadow trooper helmet was sent from UK with Shock Trooper for too much shipping $$$. Not sure what you are talking about with the silver rings around they eyes. My Blackhole Stormtrooper is from Ebay. You just have to keep looking for these. They do turn up on Ebay.

sorry about the confusion..on most of the blackhole helmets I have seen there is no silver highlights to it (nose bridge or eyes)...they of course might just be bad pictures. I guess I will have to check Ebay because I dig the Shadow and the Shock...a 212th (if it exists in scale) would be nice as well...
