Starting August 23, Fett fans with deep pockets and creative sights can jump over to Ebay<\/a> to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Twenty one-of-a-kind helmets will be up for grabs, and will be shown to the ticketed public at Celebration VI.<\/p>\n

The Dented Helmet<\/a> and the 501st Legion<\/a> worked together to make the effort come together, which features 40 custom Fett- and Trooper-inspired helmets in all.<\/p>\n

One is made by designer-turned-director Joe Johnston<\/a>, creator of the original Boba Fett helmet. Another was made by Sandy Dhuyvetter<\/a>, the artist who painted three of the costumes for Empire<\/em> and the helmet used in Jedi<\/em>, and who has now made four helmets. Most were made over the course of ten months, except the Sideshow Collectibles piece which was made in just two.<\/p>\n
