Re: What is the best Duplicolor paint for a ROTJ RG helmet?

Like others suggested, I took my robes to the store and found a color that matched. I want to say mine was Cherry Red or something along those lines. If you're only using it for display just take a screen shot from movie and find the color that matches. It'll only look weird when put next to appropr...

Re: CRL Changes

The availability of the boots isn't my concern (not really). My main concern is that there is no evidence that ROTJ wore red boots onscreen.

CRL Changes

Did I miss the CRL change discussion about the boots? It's possible.

Re: Building Royal Guard from ROTJ

Black boots are perfectly acceptable for ROTJ. Boots For 501st approval: Black, texture-less, leather/synthetic leather (non glossy) “Jack” boots", squared toe (rounded toe in ladies styles are acceptable), with a relatively conservative heel, no visible straps/buckles, or ornamental stitch...

Agreed...RotJ is a rasp, Ep 2 and 3 are the setup you've got going.

Re: New ROTJ Guard Build -- Getting organized

I'll save you a few bucks and say the sound amplifier isn't going to work for you. The helmet is really loud (it's like a seashell) just not with all of the sounds you want. You'll get used to hand signals, social queues, and people yelling at you :)

Re: My ROTJ Pike

It's white PVC with black spray plasti-dip. Had I known it was easy to find I'd have gone with black/grey PVC because scratches really show the white off. If the plasti-dip every tears I just respray and it's fine.

Re: Length?

If you're holding the pommel in your hand the pike should go a few inches above your helmeted head is my opinion. It's one of those things that you'll know it when you see it. I've seen pictures of guards with the pike tip ending below their eye line and that looks bad, same with it ending a foot+ a...

Re: thoughts on costume please

Part of me would love to see someone spend the money who knows what they're doing (ie already has an approved 501st royal guard costume) to find out how legit these are but that person is not you. Don't waste your money on something the photographs clearly show are not 501sts approved. The outer rob...
