I am your Head Man

Head Man
a costume in tribute to an obscure Star Wars bootleg figure

In the late eighties, after Kenner toy had slowed down the production of Star Wars action figures, a Turkish toy company produced a run of bootleg toys under the title Stars War [sic]:Uzay Savaşçılari (Space Warriors.) After learning of this line I was intrigued by the strange out-of-canon creation of a character simply named Head Man. Almost all black Head Man was a kit bashed creation using of the legs and arms of an Imperial Gunner, the torso of an Imperial Guard and the same trooper’s helmet, curiously chromed in gold.

I am making this version in a hurry, doing my damndest to get the chroming right. The base helmet was made by another fan, presumably cast off an original. But this does not sit on my shoulders as I would like. I think I need to sculpt a new better fitting one for a Future update. Maybe explore other chroming options.
