Master Replicas
New Products |
Shadow Trooper Helmet
Replica For much of the Galactic Civil War, a mysterious agent of
the evil Sith Lord Emperor Palpatine, code-named "Blackhole," carefully gathered
intelligence data for the Galactic Empire. Blackhole had an impressive arsenal
of weapons available to him, including a Star Destroyer, the signature vessel of
the Imperial Starfleet. The Stormtroopers under Blackhole's command were known
as Shadow Stormtroopers. Their armor was cast in black stygian-triprismatic
polymer which had increased sensor-stealth capabilities, allowing them to move
about the galaxy undetected.
By the end of the Galactic Civil War,
Blackhole had disappeared and his Shadow Stormtroopers were absorbed by the
Imperial Forces. Some found their way to Carnor Jax's private
army.
Crafted from quality materials, and using reference materials from
the Lucasfilm Archives, Master Replicas is proud to offer this Replica of the
Shadow Stormtrooper Helmet, exclusively for members of the 2007 Master Replicas
Collectors Society. The Shadow Stormtrooper Helmet Limited Edition is limited to
500 pieces!
Since we expect another fast sell out - it is limited to 500
pieces, after all - we have added a third server, in support of our website, to
accommodate the anticipated rush of CS members, coming to buy the Helmet! Don't
miss your chance to add this beautiful helmet replica to your collection this
week!!!
$499 apiece Collectors Society Preorder Date: June 20, 2007

Featured Artist
Craig Burt-Painting by Numbers 30 |
Featured Artist Craig Burt has provided us
with a breakdown of one of his paintings that provides us with a look into how
the picture came about.
"Palpatine's Plain"
Here is some of the article created by Craig:
This, Papatine's Plain, I think, is the second of these Star
Wars paintings when starting on this painting binge. The first was another
version of this, that being the first painting I'd tried in years and was
terrible; it was badly painted and I'd even forgot how to mix colors. So that
means Naboo Booboo was actually the first scene painted in this series and in
fact the third painting I'd tried in however many years.
Be sure to read the rest of the article about "Palpatine's
Plain" in the Painting by
Numbers section. Thanks Craig for another great walkthrough of how this
image came about! Enjoy! |
