Prototype "Y-Wing" Helmet from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story....

Description

Prototype "Y-Wing" Helmet from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. (Disney, 2016) Original prototype pilot's helmet constructed of cast fiberglass shell with sculptural divots and planes, painted white, and with applied colored paper badging, tape striping and faux leather gasket on the lower part of the face port. Interior lined with paneled black foam. Only four of these helmets were produced and shipped to the Rogue One production company. Master scanned from one of the screen-used ROTJ "Y-Wing" helmets in the Lucas archive. Since these were intended to be "new" helmets, a completely new liner was made as the original ROTJ helmet only had chunks of yellow foam for padding. This type of helmet was never seen in the finished film.  Exhibiting age, production handling and minor soiling. In very good condition. Purchased directly from Chris Gilman, owner of Global Effects, the company that manufactured the helmets.
