About mid last year Alex (aka SpideyFett on The Dented Helmet) had a great opportunity to meet and speak with Jeremy Bulloch one on one at a Sci Fi Expo in Dallas Texas. In the that, and many conversations with Jeremy throughout the day, he was thrilled to find out that Jeremy was amazed at the work that was done on the Fett suits that were displayed by TDH at the Expo…he said “it reminded him of the suit he wore during filming”…Alex figured at the time he said that kind of thing to everyone in a Fett suit so I humbly accepted his praise of the work.
then Alex was stunned to find out that Jeremy REALLY wanted a wearable Fett Costume of his own, and had been wanting one for sometime…..and Alex was even more stunned that he didn’t already own a Fett suit of some kind. (Light goes off in his head)
Hence the JB Project was born!!
This was a 6 month project that was worked on by members of The Dented Helmet and Rebelscum.com. This was something that was a labor of love for all involved. The costume was presented to Jeremy 4-5-2008 at the Dallas Comic Con in Richardson TX.
Here are some pics from the event.

When I read this story it made me so happy to hear that Jeremy finally got ‘his armour’. He looks absolutely magnificent in it and I hope to see him at an event wearing it! Well done to Dented Helmet and Rebelscum for such an awesome and generous gift to a deserving awesome actor. hats off to you Jeremy!
