I can't understand why people give Andrew a hard time. He might not have designed the helmets but he made them. Seems like a nice chap too. I can't wait for my helmet to arrive.
@@scotthammond6589 He assembled them in his shop and was at least partially involved in the design process. He also personally produced every piece of armor and helmets, Empire as well as Rebels, in the original, deal with it! The man is a legend.
Go look at the judges decision. Its public knowledge and is searchable on google. Judge calls him a liar without actually saying it. Proof is out there g look it up
He is like one of those contractors that is given the plans for a house, builds it and then claims to be the architect and sells them for his own profit. He did not create the Stormtrooper. Neither did he have the idea of the Stormtrooper.
Liar, liar, helmets on fire. He melted plastic over someone else's bucks. He then reproduced them years later claiming to have kept the originals, which he didn't. Then he 'doubled down' on the lie and claimed that he was the originator of the sculpts. He has squandered any credit that he might lay claim to by perjuring himself in court. Those are some facts right there!
Yeah..lucas screwed him over the first time by not mentioning it was for a movie...If lucas was to be nice, and say, HEY! you've helped us alot, you can go sell these...but no..seriously..dude is just trying to earn a living..he's been long forgotten as a prop maker..
Because he claims to be the creator of the armor, which is a lie. Brian Muir and Liz Moore created the armor. Ainworth was just the guy who vacuformed the parts.
@@joefera8947 He also assembled and painted the helmets in his shop and was at least partially involved in the design process. Liz Moore made a one-piece helmet design, without the familiar "ears". Those ears are there to hide the seam line between the two helmet halves. Where did those ears come from?! Liz Moore did not design them, that's for sure. Ainsworth personally produced every piece of vacuformed armor and helmets, Empire as well as Rebels, in the original, deal with it! He knows better than anyone else how the original, screen used armor was made - he literally made them! The man is a legend. Most of the hate comes from the elitist assholes over at the RPF and from people like Brian Muir - who coincidentally has his own little business selling Star Wars helmets! But I'm sure his only interest is to keep Liz Moore's legacy alive - give me a break.. 😂 🤣
Wow, that guy loves the sound of his own voice, and total BS too! On his website shop he even claims he was the original R2 builder........ "Everyone’s favourite droid is now available to own from Shepperton Design Studios, the studio that was there at the very beginning. Built to the same highest standards across all of our products, our R2 Droid is a full size replica created especially by Andrew Ainsworth, the original prop maker."
Shepperton Design Studios, set up by Andrew Ainsworth, did not build the original R2 props, and neither did Ainsworth have a hand in the build or design. The original R2 was built by robotics technician Professor Tony Dyson, along with 8 variations for various plot requirements. He owned the special effects studio White Horse Toy Company.
Total crap. He was a fabricator who was hired as a short-term vendor to crank out some suits and helmets that were needed in bulk in a very short amount of time. This happens on many many films. That's his entire involvement. Period. He did NOT create the Stormtroopers or anything else from Star Wars, nor did he sculpt them or even assemble them. Simply put - he owns a vacuum-forming/plastic fabrication business and Lucasfilm paid to have him make some stuff quickly. A VENDOR. Do you REALLY think George Lucas would have called up a guy who makes fish ponds and kayaks for a living... to create his iconic Stormtrooper army?! USE YOUR BRAINS, people! The guy is a thief, a liar, and a total mooch. He sells a rip-off Stormtrooper suit/helmet now that he CLAIMS is from the original molds - but that is blatant lie. I'm a 501st Legion member and I've been to Lucasfilm and seen original suits. Andrew Ainsworth does NOT have the original molds. Maybe some he threw out because they were crap. Maybe some new ones he recast from an old helmet. But not the originals. Don't believe his lies or buy his crappy products. And by the way... he LOST the lawsuit by Lucasfilm in the USA. He only won rights in the UK, because Copyright laws there are less strict. And either way, he was making illegal helmets/suits for years before that - AKA he is a thief and criminal against the Star Wars brand and Lucasfilm. Everything is public record and easy to find, if you don't believe me.
Why do you think he doesnt have the original helmet moulds? Why would he NOT have them? Who else would have them, and why? Do you think Liz Moore made the moulds?
I will say this, his helmets match in every way the originals. The right eye has a strange bump and protrudes, and the left eye does not. The left cheek bone is sharp, the right is not. All of the other shapes are dead on as well. If you study other copies, none have these characteristics. These helmets are like fingerprints. I 100% believe that he at least has the original molds.
Ainsworth is a fraud. He never has a hand in the design of the original Stormtrooper armor or helmet. Credit Bill Muir and Liz Moore for their outstanding talent and contributions to the Star Wars legacy. Ainsworth simply produced for the film what was already created.
Hello and good morning my name is Kevin green field and I'm a massive star wars fan and I want to work with you and these storm trooper helmet,s and amour can I have a job working for you.

wow,very nice guy..that must be what Heaven looks like...love it.
Only an inaccurate version of heaven.
I can't understand why people give Andrew a hard time. He might not have designed the helmets but he made them. Seems like a nice chap too. I can't wait for my helmet to arrive.
+Kevlar 1878 he could at LEAST mention the original sculptors of the armour!
all he ever did was vacuform them.
its a flat out lie that he ever sculpted the original helmet for the films.
You have more money than sense...
@@bobrew461 This made me laugh out loud this morning.

+Nein. Brian Muir sculpted the armour and Liz Moore sculpted helmet, according to sources.
Nein. Spot on, that's what bugs me
Exactly give Liz Moore(rip) the respect she deserves
Whatever opinion you have of him, he brought the Moore's and Muir sketches to life.
Such a pity that he implies that he sculpted the trooper helmet, stealing the credit for a Liz Moore's work is shitty beyond belief.
Liar, liar, helmets on fire. He melted plastic over someone else's bucks. He then reproduced them years later claiming to have kept the originals, which he didn't.

It's sad that he go sued by Lucas films
Yeah..lucas screwed him over the first time by not mentioning it was for a movie...If lucas was to be nice, and say, HEY! you've helped us alot, you can go sell these...but no..seriously..dude is just trying to earn a living..he's been long forgotten as a prop maker..
But Andrew "WON!"
He's so illegitimate and incorrect he calls it Star WARS
I know him if you want more information message me.
In the Star wars world why does no one like this guy and his armour
Because he claims to be the creator of the armor, which is a lie. Brian Muir and Liz Moore created the armor. Ainworth was just the guy who vacuformed the parts.
I know him and i have no idea? He is an age old friend.
