Hi all. Got a PM on the UKG forum from a member who has tried to register on the forum here, but hasn't been able to gain access. He registered last sunday. His forum name is funkster and his email is [email protected] Can anyone look into this for me so I can get back to him? Maybe he needs to have his authentication email resent to him. Cheers.

Hmm I'll have to check. It definately doesn't have greedo shooting first or a badly rendered Jabba the hutt or any updated FX. I believe it was an extra DVD that came with the first special edition version and it a direct rip of the laserdisc version. It might not be 100% exactly like the 1977 cinema release, but it's the best you'll get.

I'd not get a MRCE helmet if I were you. If you want a good helmet get one from ATA or TM or one of the other makers. You won't need to mod it to be cleared either.

I wouldn't bother to be honest. There's stuff missing, the helmet is an FX helmet and only looks good on a shelf. On your head you'll look like one of those bobblehead dolls. The boots ae not clearable, they're Elvis boots. There's stuff missing. You'd need to tim it to fit you if it was too big (Obviously) and if you're bigger than how big the amour is, you're stuffed. It MIGHT and I do mean MIGHT be worth getting just to nab the voice changer and fans. But that's the only things worth anything in my opinion.

Test fitting, it'll hold fine.

Looking at the armour I can't say for certain who the maker is. The helmet is missing it's ear bumps...The eyes look a bit...odd. There are several armour makers on the forums here. ATA, TM, CFO and loads more. You can get a really great suit and you can get one for $500 easily.

I'm FIRMLY in the camp of "F you, Lucas and your constant alterations!" I have not and I WILL NOT buy the blu ray release. I own the UNALTERED DVD release and that's all I'll ever own unless GL decides to release an unaltered blu ray. Prequels all suck and now he's making the original trilogy start to suck. He absolutely RUINED ROTJ with Vader saying "Noooo..Nooooooooo!" There was absolutely NO NEED to add that dialogue it turned a great scene into a stupid scene.

Yeah this is a great video and has been popping up everywhere. I'm another one who had a simmilar reaction as a small child when I saw the film first. "WOW....Darf vader is his dad?"

Hmm. I don't think anything can be done to restore them or at least nothing I can think of. Maybe one of the more skilled armourers can suggest something. If the thighs didn't fit, you need to remove some material from the TOP of the thighs, not the bottom - but I guess that's obvious to you now.

Post some pictures to help us a bit. There should be little indentations or lines that'll indicate where to cut. You then trim it further if you need to.

Uh huh! Ohh momma. (Say in in an Elivs voice) They cost over 100? Where the hell did he get those from? Ugh. Another reason I wish people knew the facts and not 'the facts'.

You mean split pins that are use to attach pieces of paper together/ Like in school?

Yeah trim it up a bit but not too much. If you trim it to where Lucas has indicated and it's still too tight, you might be better off selling the lid and getting a bigger one.

I've 'liked'.

Yeah it's hard putting a set of TK armour together with little room. I do have a cellar, but I put my armour together back last winter and it was too cold to be down there for long so I put it together in 1 of the rooms in the house. You can start with the helmet then work on the smaller parts first like the biceps and forearms. Once you gain confidence - if you lack any that is - you should move on to the larger parts.

I'd love to get this but 2 things stop me. #1 buying a new pc to run it and #2 paying £15 a month to play it.

Too small? Nah, man, it looks good.

I used E-6000 to glue my hovi mic tip mesh on. I'd imagine superglue would do just as well.

I've bought a few little bits and pieces from a few people here. Gloves from Karin, Clips from Jesse, ears from John Danter and some ab plate buttons from....Err I forgot who it was (Sorry). So I'd not worry too much about being ripped off.

If you can, pay via credit card with paypal. Gives you an extra bit of security, but if you buy from one of the armourers here you won't get ripped off.

Those are awesome. Looking foward to seeing it all painted up.

MY EYES! Holy fudge , not only is that armour nasty looking. It looks like the person is swimming in it it's so massive. $1800 is extortionate. It COULD be made to look better with a boat load of trimming and fixing. It's such a shame we can't reach out to more people and give them the info they need so they don't get ripped-off like this.

Hello! Yeah if you send me a PM with some details of what you want I'll get on with it. I'm off work next week so I can probably do you a banner in a day.

Either do it that way, do it yourself or get someone who does photoshop type work like..ohh I dunno..Some like... ME No charge either.

That is so cool. Did Matt Sloan of 'Chad vader' fame do the voice for Vader?
