Here's an odd Star Wars question.

I've recently got my hands on an original Stormtrooper Helmet from the original movie made nearly 30 years ago.

On either side of the "chin" there are 2 mic tips/knobs that have the words "Hovi Mix PA" written on the side.

Any info on what these are (i.e. rheostats or mini microphones) of whether you can still get them would be greatly appreciated

Cheers

I found this little quote on a web site about those helmets:

"Mic Tips: Either original "Hovi Mix PA" Rheostat/Microphone (still not certain), or resin cast/vac pull off a Hovi Mix. There are ridges down each shaft at quarter intervals."

Hi,

Thats actually my web site (www.StarWarsHelmets.com). We're trying to find out exactly what these little things are and are thinking that someone here might know.

Cheers
