Yes, we make a certain amount of sport of those with kits like this, but let's face it, not everyone can afford to spend $1000 + dollars on TK armor/accessories but still want to live the dream we all had of being a Stormtrooper. I bought my first kit from ebay to use as a Halloween costume. Did I make mistakes on my build? Good GOD yes! When I got it done I thought I was the coolest cat alive, but being an accuracy nut I did some research, found out about the 501st/FISD and it opened up a whole new world I never knew existed. I have seen many folks with ebay type kits while trooping (especially at SW movie premiers). I always hand them one of my trading cards and tell them a bit about the 501st in case they want more information. Some people are happy-as-clams to wear non "approved" armor and just want to get out, have fun, (I say more power to them) and don't care about being approved, then there are the rest of us, lol. To put it another way, what if a person with wonky looking armor decides to check out the FISD in hopes of joining and sees their photo(s) posted with deriding comments. Ouch. Just something to think about....

Not FO/Sith it otherwise but given how much we all use these I thought this was fun. Rey’s Space Dremel! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It’s a good thing none of us wanted to wear our Sequel trilogy FOTK armour - while a sequel trilogy movie was still in theatres...

How ironic... so many of those used to build armor.

Absolutely nothing.

Mind the tone please. There are people behind those images.

Extremely disappointing, I thought/hoped they would have actually made this final deadline, they are definitely dead to a lot of folk now, who knows how long they'll still be around for, I suppose just to supply Disney. You only have the backing of costumers if you can actually deliver costumes in a timely manner.

Hi Jesse, I can’t see the pics. Google drive asking for sign in.

It has been delayed. Dymocks don’t have it. Some Big W or QBD if you’re lucky. Limited stock in some stores. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Very cool! I want to know the armor types the 501st wore. They are now screen accurate no matter what the source. :D
