Does anyone know the origin of the Pearl Light Gray and Green Fett helmets (x50
Minifigure, Headgear Helmet SW Rocket Pack)? It's the same part number as
the white helmet from the Polybag prototype Boba Fett, but they never appeared
in any set or minifigs. I bought 10 of the Pearl Light Gray ones here 15 years
ago (for $2.50 each! ), so before 3-D printing or Chinese knockoffs were
rampant. They appear to be legit. I recently purchased one green one, too,
just to have in my collection (just ordered, so not in hand yet.)

They just seem to be misprints, they are pretty cool though, if you wanna get
rid of a couple, feel free to message me i may be interested.

Thanks, NG

They are just unprinted production parts. They used to show up in the "Floor
Sweepings" boxes that LUG's used to get.

Excellent! Thanks!

I just realized that placed two orders back in 2006. My little army has 19 of
the Pearl Light Gray ones! 18 are on original Boba Fett bodies, 1 as a custom
OG Din Djarin in Beskar. I'll try to post a pic later.

I can't count. There are 20 of them (19+1). Here's a pic of the 19
(I'll save Din for another thread):

Thanks for the info. I love the OG style helmet/backpacks, so I'm not likely
to sell them. If I ever do, though, I'll let you know.

When I get a chance, I'll post my OG version of Din Djarin in Beskar (Pearl
Light Gray helmet/pack and original Jango Fett torso with new arms/legs.)
