Wow! I am especially impressed by his Star Destroyer. I was certain that was
build by Lego (not as pre-production, but as a promotional model). I have seen
Mr. Fujita's website, but the number of pieces alone in the model is surprising
for a fan.

Appears to me to be the head of the C-3PO in the Millenium Falcon set! Perhaps
the Stormtrooper helmets are very early production for a set coming out in the
next year's assortment?

I have seen other pictures of real-scale models of Vader and R2-D2, and they
look very much like these, so I think you are correct, these come from the Lego
Model Shops.
Thank you again for the page and for the extra information!
