anyone bought off this guy?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&sspagename=ADME%3AL%3ARTQ%3AUK%3A1&viewitem=&item=190068583028&rd=1

i contacted him and he said "this is a vintage and quite rair"
my question was... is this a normal stormtrooper helmet been cut off?

how do you tell?

I'm thinking fake.

I can take a reference pic if you want, I have just compared the auction with an original stormtrooper and Luke ST Helmet.

That shape and pain job match a normal stormtrooper one more that the removable one.

yeah... it did look like a sawn-off stormtrooper head.... i have a luke stormtrooper here but no helmet

i read about repro's having a moulding circle "sprue" mark on the back and the real ones dont have that.

i wouldnt like to waste my Ã'Â£Ã'Â£Ã'Â£ on a cut up figure

a pic of the front and rear would help
