We don't need to see his identification... move along...

Remember this "move along" Stormtrooper in Star Wars? The original 1976 helmet used in the movie has resurfaced and is going up for auction at Christie's in december. My guess is it'll fetch around $25000.

See this link for more details.

I'm supprised Lucas isn't bitch slapping these helmets away from the auction blcok. I only skimmed through the page but did they say if Lucas had any rights to the props from this era or if they were gifts to the actors who wore them?

It's accepted practice. He's only be pissing off the actors by stopping the sale.

Most of these original props now in the hands of individuals were salvaged from the trash bin.

Lucas only started his archives years after Retrun of the Jedi.

PS. your son, luke, is a whiny little bitch. I never heard anakin say "I CANT DO IT" to yoda. Yoda shoulda beat down Luke with that switch he called a cane.

That helmet fetched up $35000 at the Christie sale.

Not bad for a lump of vac-formed ABS...
