Brief Prop and Costume History
This ones a bit of a mixed bag since it covers the helmets and costumes for
a number of characters including Tusken Raiders, Bossk, Gamorrean Guards and
various other aliens from Jabba's palace
Replicas:
From a licensed perspective, the majority of providers
tend to concentrate on providing masks, helmets and costumes for the main
characters, i.e. Darth Vader, Stormtrooper, Boba Fett, Clone Trooper etc.
This is simple economics since the demand for these main characters are many
times that for the less well-known characters. Essentially a provider would
expect to sell 10 Darth Vader's for ever Gamorrean Guard. However its
pleasing to see that Sideshow Collectibles
isn't overlooking the minor characters and have done some superb 1:1
scale busts including Bossk, Greedo, Admiral Ackbar and a Gamorrean Guard.
Fan-made producers are no so concerned with issues of scale
(in fact a small run for a niche character can be quite rewarding) and have
put together some excellent replica masks and helmets. These are often sold
as unfinished "Do it Yourself" kits - the perfect example of this is "Godzilla's"
Tusken Raider. On the fan-made page you'll
see photos of this, plus some other fantastic replicas including some that
were only made as one-off's |
