Our expert's notes

A replica of Boba Fett’s (Jeremy Bulloch) Mandalorian helmet from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. Created by the legendary Don Post Studios, this full-size wearable helmet was part of their “deluxe” range, created to accurately reproduce the on-screen appearance of characters from the lowly stormtrooper to main characters like R2-D2 and C-3PO. Don Post pieces were highly valued for their accuracy, with some of the range used for promotional purposes by Lucasfilm at various locations worldwide.
A limited edition piece that has become even more sought-after following the loss of Don Post’s Star Wars reproduction licence, this helmet is marked as number 2 in the production run on an engraved plaque affixed to the helmet’s left cheek. The helmet is made of fibreglass with a semi-transparent black visor, resin folding antenna/scanner and a foam liner for comfort during wear. Wired-in electronics on the scanner eye piece can be activated with a slide switch, making a set of red LEDs blink in sequence as per the original prop. The piece is finished in the famous green and dark red of Fett with markings in yellow and blue and plenty of distressing applied to make the helmet appear hard-worn from its time in use in the bounty hunter business, including the infamous “dent” on the forehead.

Displaying some minor signs of wear from its time on display, the helmet remains in overall very good condition.
