SUMMARY

BLACK

“THE SINISTER LOOK...”

The Shadow Stormtrooper Helmet - A unique and striking take on a classic. Although never used in the original film, the Shadow Stormtrooper design has become a popular icon in the universe.

George Lucas had flouted the idea of using the Shadow Trooper as the Tie-Pilot, but Andrew created a unique Tie Pilot character that really did fit the bill and so the Shadow Trooper concept finally made its debut in the 1979 comic strip “Gambler’s World” by Russ Manning.
HIGH-BROW

‘READY FOR ACTION...’

Brow positioned at similar level to the Stunt Helmet which where produced for action shots. The helmet has been expertly crafted to the highest standard with incredible attention to detail to ensure a faithful representation of the classic Shadow Stormtrooper design.
EAR PIECE

“BRIDGE THE GAP...”

The ear piece was developed to cover the join between the front and rear helmet mouldings.

They gave the helmet presence, like a lion's mane whilst simultaneously giving the impression of a communications device, by way of the raised vertical grid.
MIRROR

“MYSTERY IN THE LENSES...”

The mirrored lenses portray a eerily futuristic being and spectacular when on display. Blister eyes, as per the Hero Helmet are also supplied with this piece as an alternative option along with flat green acetate if needed for trooping.
HAND PAINTED

“METICULOUS DETAIL...”

Meticulously hand-painted matt black chevrons, cheeks and temples are a unique feature for this signature addition. The mouth and ears are had painted along with the extended frown, as in the Stunt Helmet. The frown on this character is hand painted in silver.
MIC TIPS

“FUTURISTIC COMMUNICATION...”

"The 'Hovi Mix Pa 2,' also known as Mic Tips, are now 3D printed, meticulously modelled from the original part. Initially, Andrew tried crafting the Mic Tips using vacuum-formed plastic, but they lacked the precision and sharpness he desired. Seeking a more straightforward solution, he visited his favourite greebles shop, the Wheelhouse in Hounslow. There, he stumbled upon an unusual sink cleaning attachment called the Swirlerator, marked with the part number 'Hovi Mix Pa 2.' It turned out to be perfect."
