Product Information

While the Rebel forces suffered heavy losses during the battle, Princess Leia Organa and her companions on the Millennium Falcon eventually brought the plans to Yavin. [2] Antilles was tasked to oversee a simulation test for a new recruit, Luke Skywalker. He explained the test to the newcomer, and noting that Skywalker had lasted over 30 seconds on his first try, Antilles advised him to listen, and encouraged not to give up. In his second try, Skywalker surpassed Antilles' highest score, and Antilles joked that should Skywalker write an autobiography, he should write 'I owe everything to Wedge Antilles,' when Skywalker told it was only because he had helped him.

The first helmet released after one seen in a tv show was the Incinerator Stormtrooper. Based on the one seen in The Mandalorian, it matches the white with red markings on the helmet.The microphone is from a Racal Minilite headset. This is the same headset that Luke and Han wore when fighting the TIE Fighters in their escape from the Death Star. It comes in two parts like the real mask, a front piece and rear piece, and also features a voice changer. Final Thoughts The all-silver-grey armored helmet includes a flip-down range finder. The range finder lights up to reveal LED flashing lights. Additionally, there is a heads-up display that illuminates. The interior is padded, making it fit comfortably on the head. There are also scratches seen around the outside to represent battle scarring. The Star Wars Book places the Battle of Vrogas Vas in the year immediately following the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas states concluded in 0 ABY. Therefore, the Battle of Vrogas Vas must have taken place in 0 ABY. Now I could finally paint it. I decided to make it to an Wedge Antilles Return of the Jedi Helmet. So first I masked off the two upper surfaces and painted it with a moss green.

The helmet itself has all of the features of the plain white version. A great looking helmet for the collection! PREMIUM ELECTRONIC HELMET: Featuring highly-detailed deco, movie-inspired design, interior padding, electronic lights, and sound FX, this full-scale reproduction of Wedge Antilles’ iconic helmet is a great addition to any fan’s Star Wars collection. Copy, Gold Leader. I'm already on my way out." ―Lando Calrissian and Antilles, as they fired the shots that destroyed the second Death Star [37] Flip the switch inside helmet to choose between a simulation of piloting Wedge Antilles'X-wing at the Battle of Yavin or his Snowspeeder at the Battle of Hoth, featuring communication from R2-A3 During their conversation, although Kyrell revealed he was an ex-Imperial pilot, Antilles asked him to join the Rebellion. Kyrell initially refused, but after a few hours, some Corellian ale and a talk with his employer Lohgarra, he accepted Antilles' invitation. [15]Following the liberation of Kashyyyk, Wedge watched his friend Temmin crash an X-wing during a computer simulator exercise. When Temmin demanded to fly a real X-wing, Wedge responded that the New Republic military authorities had tightened access to X-wings. He also promised the boy that if he improved his simulator scores, he could arrange for Temmin to have a ship before the next moon alignment. When Temmin remarked that his own father Brentin, who had been implanted with an inorganic biochip, had tried to assassinate Chancellor Mothma, Wedge asked if things with Norra were better. [13] The eFX X-wing pilot helmet is a faithful recreation of the iconic helmet that Wedge Antilles wore in the exciting battles of the Star Wars saga. Utilizing a digital scan of an original X-wing helmet in the Lucasfilm archive and an actual APH-6B helmet, castings of an original visor and chin cup, eFX’s engineers, model-makers and artists painstakingly constructed the master patterns to produce this prop replica. Newly-appointed Red Leader Commander Arhul Narra asked Antilles and Skywalker to continue to fly with Red Squadron, while making it clear that neither of them should expect special treatment for surviving an encounter with the Death Star, even if they did destroy it, and the two accepted. After numerous missions alongside Skywalker and earning each other's complete trust, Antilles assisted on a mission for Red Squadron above Giju, under the designation " Red Three." Antilles, Skywalker and Narra escorted a transport carrying underground rebel leaders being evacuated from the planet. [26] Featuring 3 internal speakers and synchronised LED lights, fans can imagine what it was like for this Rebel pilot to suit up and pilot both an X-wing Fighter and Snowspeeder into battle!
