501st Legion Trooper Helmet EPIII Limited Edition

When Anakin Skywalker succumbed to the dark side of the force, his new sith master, Chancellor Palpatine, the self-appointed emperor of the new galactic empire, assigned to him an elite unit of Clone Troopers known as Special Ops or the 501st Legion. Now known as Darth Vader, upon the enactment of order 66, his first assignment was to destroy the younglings and the Jedi temple.

Their distinctive blue-marked armor distinguished them apart from the other ranks. Their skillful marksmanship and coordinated team maneuvers allowed them to trap and mercilessly gun down the Jedi in the temple.

To create their 501st Legion Trooper Helmet Replica, Master Replicas was provided with the original ILM digital character files. From these we generated a 3D model to use as a master pattern to create accurate molds from which they produce our helmets in high quality fiberglass. Since they used original computer renders, you can be assured that our 501st Legion Trooper Helmet is an exact replica, accurately replicating the multitude of subtle shapes and curves that make up this incredible piece of armor.

Master Replicas is proud to recreate the Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith Clone Trooper helmet that bridges the gap between the Clone Trooper forces of the prequels to the Stormtroopers of the classic trilogy.

* Sturdy fiberglass construction
* Weathered/Battle Damaged finish
* Each helmet is fully lined and padded interior with a see-through, tinted plastic lens
* Comes with a custom display stand, metal plaque and certificate of authenticity
* Limited to 750 pieces

Each helmet is made to the same exacting standards you have come to expect from Master Replicas' stunning range of prop replicas.

$399.00 each
Collectors Society Pre-Order Date: October 17, 2007 (9:00am PST)
General Public Pre-Order Date: October 18, 2007 (9:00am PST)

Great Things Coming To The Galactic Voyage Video Game Section

Hello everyone! I am the newest staff member here at Galactic Voyage, Son Of Skywalker. A bio and more about myself will be added to the staff page, so I'll just go ahead and post what I'm most excited about. The Video Game section of Galactic Voyage is one of the best I've seen on the web thus far. With videos, reviews, and more, it truly is special. I look forward to making it more special by adding reviews, screen shots, and audio clips to the section. We will be getting info on older games as well as the new games, so if you have anything you'd like to donate we will post it and of course credit it to you (or the information you give us.) I look forward to working with my fellow staff members of the Video Game section on making it the best on the web.

Live-Action Series Update

AICN has an article with a few possible tidbits of what we may see from the Live-Action Series. It has been a long time since I had to use the "highlight to read" for possible spoilers, but here you have it!

Spoilers - Highlight to read:

• The Series is set between Episodes III & IV and "embraces the broad scope of the Star Wars universe".
• Thall Joben from the 1980's Droids Animated Series.
• Pod Racers will be featured and the characters, shenanigans, and politics the events bring with them.
• Lots of Imperials. Undercover Operatives and Imperial Officers of all makes and ambitions and nearly all of them will be afraid of Darth Vader.
• We will see Rebel bases & Imperial Star Destroyers.
• We will see a Rebel with the last name of Naberrie. He is in his 20's and is related to Padmé Naberrrie.
• There will be a Rebel General with the last name of Durron. Possibly the father of the Expanded Universe character Kyp Durron.
• There will be at least one cool Mandalorian kick-butt character in the course of the series.
• We will see General Papanoida. Possibly Baron Papanoida (Lucas' cameo in Episode III) turned General?
• Bib Fortuna and Oola from Return Of The Jedi will make an appearance.
• Death Star Plans are included. However it is unknown to the extent in which the plans are featured.
• The Series will be less “good guy/bad guy” in nature & offer far more insight into what makes characters tick. Why they feel what they feel and where they’re coming from. This will be true for good guys and bad guys alike.
• The overall tone of the show is rather close to the adventurous nature of Episodes IV, V, and VI… just a little edgier.
• There may be something about Boba Fett… should be in his 20s in this series… angsty… disenfranchised… and simmering…

TheForce.net has also provided a little more information stating that:

Spoilers - Highlight to read:

• They're casting for Boba Fett
• Most of the casting going on is for young actors and actresses with the exception of a couple of middle aged actors.

It is cool to start seeing a little information coming out. Now if we can start getting more on the 3D Clone Wars series!
