Master Replicas movie prop

ROCKETEER HELMET REPLICA 1/1 SCALE Officially licensed product made by Master Replicas. Comes brand new and factory sealed. It has never been opened. This item has not been made for years.For Disney, bringing The Rocketeer to life on the big screen was an enormous undertaking. Crucial to the film was the look of Dave Stevens popular comic book character, and pivotal to that was the helmet. Several versions of the helmet were created, but they all fell short of the streamlined look captured in the comic. Only a few weeks before shooting was to begin, Rocketeers director Joe Johnston gave creator Dave Stevens the daunting task of taking his drawing to the big screen. Taking a casting of the stuntmans head and then photographing it from all sides, Stevens drew the helmet right on top of the photos. With Stevens supervision, sculptor Kent Melton sculpted tightly over the life casting and created a helmet that worked from every angle, looking as if it was straight out of the comic book.
