[What Stormtroopers do on their day off]

brilliant.

[Hello from a new member!]

thanks for the welcomes!

 

it wasn't my intention to get captured. but when darth vader rolls up with two stormtroopers and the bounty hunter what are you supposed to do? I could've ran but I'd've no doubt been shot.

 

the fact they stayed in character at all times was really impressive. it added no end to the authenticity of the thing.

[Which helmet and where to buy from?]

If you want something that you can fit glasses under, you will probably not have luck with the standard accurate sized helmets from TE2, AP, ATA, MRCE, etc.

 

There is however some accurate styled helmets that are scaled up slightly. RT-Mod makes one as well as the ANH v2.5.

 

You will probably want to stay away from the FX, yes it's the largest, but it's also the least accurate.

 

I feel your pain, being a glasses-wearing-melon-headed trooper myself

 

 

Cheers. Yeah size is going to be the main thing however the larger (and accurate ones) do seem quite expensive. I'm happy to stick with one of the fx helmets to begin with. I'm not keen enough to be spending a lot of money yet.

[Which helmet and where to buy from?]

Hi Chris i think i put the info you are asking over at the UKG with regards to price range. And just so you know want to buy armour and helmet threads are not premited here, but seeing as you are asking for some help with which helmet will suit you as you wear glasses i will let it stay as is for the time being, you may want to edit it slightly... someone else may come along and do it for you.

 

TK helmets are not really available in on line stores as the ones you want to be looking for are made by fans and they like to stay under the radar as such.

 

ps the info Chris C sent you has the contact details for various vendors.

 

 

done. thanks for the heads up.

[Which helmet and where to buy from?]

So I want to start off by getting a helmet. This looks like the way a lot of people get into stormtrooper costuming.

 

I'm aware that threads on buying aren't permited - I'm really after advice on what helmet I should be looking for that will have enough room for wearing glasses underneath.

 

The favourites so far seem to be:

 

FX

MRCE

 

 

Would both of these have the room I'm looking for?

 

If you've got any specific advice please pm me so I can stick to the rules.

 

cheers

Hi all.

 

Thanks for Firebladejedi for the heads up on the whitearmor site.

 

We went to Movie Mania 3 at the National Space Center at the weekend. I was that impressed at the end of the day that I knew I had to at least get a storm trooper helmet - if not the full costume.

Anyway look forward to speaking to you all!
