I'm curious if there's been any determination as to which Scout was portrayed by Dickey Beer in ROTJ?

Dickey is about the same size and height as me, so with the RS Props scout armor coming out soon, I thought it might be interesting to try and emulate the weathering and set up of his kit as best possible.

Anyone have any info as to which one he portrayed? Thanks!

When I talked to him about it a few years ago, it seemed that he portrayed more than one.  He mentioned the Scout that hit the tree upside down as one of them.  Not sure you want to do that though ;)

I did find this autographed image online, assuming that's actually him in that particular suit:

Yeah that's the same one he gave me.  I assumed the same.  But who really knows?

One thing which is clearer now that I posted that photo, is that it looks like his chest place is bent and warped along the middle. I found that the chest plate for Strider's armor was way too wide for me, and with Dickey being about the same size as me, I may try to emulate that bend. Maybe...maybe not, depending on how many other photos I can dig up through screenshots.

We'll see how I feel about it once I get the RS armor in hand.

It's probable that photo is of Dickey. I know when Lightning Bear was around, he was the other scout riding a bike near the Endor bunker (in the promo pics, one of which must be around here somewhere...).

 

Actually, it seems that the above is a generic Scout photo. I've seen slightly different versions of the above signed by Lightning Bear, so who knows who it is.
