It is not from PAB. That was just an example to show that there are also legit ways to get unreleased lego parts.    The part has been retired for 30 years. This is 99.9% sure just a test part that escaped the factory. "Escaping the factory" is not the same as legitimate routes such as from a PAB wall. It is old. It might have happened a long time ago. But if LEGO wants to stop illegitimate pieces from being produced and stolen now, they have to put a stop to all pieces like that. Otherwise, in 30 years time, those new illegitimate Vader helmets all become fair game to list as they are old and it happened a long time ago.
