"I CAN'T BREATH IN THIS THING!" STS Employee Jokes aside these things look MUCH more intimidating then the Stormtrooper helmet. I can only imagine the effect it would have for a big guy wearing one of these things getting up close.
TIE Pilots are the best! They will always be my favourite characters in STAR WARS, and their ships are my favourites too. I hope that once we will get a movie portraying the life of an Imperial, specifically a TIE Pilot (who doesn't defect of course).
It’s from Far Away production but I think after watching this video a lot of times.. I think the faceplate is a stunt stormtrooper one.. because there’s three plus one that not so pronounced.
Great Video and very informative too! Very interesting. (I've only just realised Lego have just released 3 x helmet models for Adults 18+ and rating - Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Empire Strikes Back in April this year. I've just bought and completed one of these the Tie Fighter Pilot edition and because of your video the Tie Fighter Pilot wasn't even featured in the Empire Strikes Back movie?!?) Hahaha! Keep up the good work pal!!
The one seen in the TIE-Fighter is DS-61-3 Callsign "Backstabber" and the two pilots are DS-61-2 (aka "Mauler") and DS-61-3 (aka "Backstabber"), but they have the background helmets in this shot instead the Hero helmets, which were only made for shooting the scenes in the TIE-cockpits.
