@themaninthesuitcase Thanks so much for the response and great info!! I will definitely stick to the kit because I wasnʻt sure how well it would be customized to me since Iʻm 6’2” and whether a “ready to wear” would fit properly. Plus, the building part seems like the fun part. So glad my trooper friend sent me here! What a great resource and wealth of information.

You are correct that is not based on the original moulds. The easiest to spot errors are the bottom curve of the chest plate and the fact it's using a plastic wrap around belt. Neither is accurate at all. RS own a screen used suit and all their kits are based on that. Denuo Novo took over from a previous vendor Anovos, and as far as I am aware this is the same product. So far Denuo Novo have proven reliable and I had a good experience with their customer service team. Accuracy wise it's pretty good. From what we were told it was scanned from a screen used suit but then cleaned up a little to remove some of the "warts and all". The biggest down side is that some parts a shade on the thin side and replacement parts seem to be patchy on availability and even then you have to buy assemblies. What ever option you go for I would suggest avoiding the "ready to wear" options. A big part of a storm trooper is how well it fits you and most of that is done during the build, and adjustments are a lot harder with the glues they will use.

Based on this: I've added to level 3 that the shoulder bell > shoulder strap strap should be dark burgundy similar to the under suit. Good spot by @gmrhodes13

Thanks Glen
