  1. Well, i think they look a little big, too. But on the other hand - the MGC Sterlings are very rare, and have a thinner tube than real Sterlings (and their copies). If someone would make a pipe build, using 38mm (or even 40mm) pipe, and maybe some other Sterling parts, it might be good to have them on the slighly bigger side.
  2. Sort of unfinished, for now. If you look close you can see the primer spots between the holes, that´s where the paint went of when i took the alu t+tracks of. They were very nice in handling and feel, just not that accurate. I plan to put new t-tracks on and ordered a set for this when i ordered a batch of sets from http://wannawanga.com/shop/ for my DLT-19 and some Sabers. Old track was of, new track arrived, but up to now i didn´t found time and patience to do it.
  3. None of mine, all deaced The sterling (and similar) falls completely under the war weapon regulations in Germany - it´s deaced, you you go to jail. The case is really cool.
  4. I´m afraid i will have to stay this way.
  5. Nice. I never was a great fan from open bolt systems, preferred the closed always. Didn´t know that after that mod it is changed.
  6. Which one of them? Sometimes it´s hard to be a fan of both.
  7. I know, it´s a mix of SW and Enterprise. Depending on what their personal bias is, some of my friends call it "the starshipbridge", the other call it my "Deathstar controlroom".
  8. And i dislike stupid questions even more. This whole thread is just a laugh. I mentioned it before, if he isn´t able or willing to get the Anovos, sell the stupid helmet he has. Then buy whatever armor he likes with the matching helmet. But don´t sit on that helmet and try to get a amen for any funny combination. All his running in circles is a waste of time. One could say "be a man, make a decision, any decision, and live with it".
  9. For example: Romania has 20% VAT, not 25. It was 24, but since 01.01.2016 it´s reduced to 20% As a part of the EU many fees are more or less in the same range in many countries - so i don´t believe the 30% customs. More believable is 20% VAT + 10% customs fee, 30 in total.
  10. I would suggest you start reading a lot before spending any money.
  11. In the 450$ Anovos kit is a build helmet included. As you already have one, that would be a second, so you could sell one of them to make the endprice even lower.
  12. Definately. I have mine from the first run, we had not that option. In my opinion the included soft goods are not that good, maybe 50$ worth.
  13. Basic maths: Anovos kit without soft goods (you better buy other, cheaper and better) is 450$ Shipping is 150$ 600$ equates 550€ 550 +30% = 715€ And a build Helmet is in that price included, so you can sell one helmet and subtract that amount (i guess 150-200€) from the 715€- Thats including customs and shipping additional 515 - 565€. Can you buy the other suits including shipping for that?
  14. Anovos + customs is still cheaper than the other variants, and the color fits exactly. I can´t see any intelligent reason to combine the way you mentioned - keep it all anovos, or sell the helmet and buy another complete armor with matching helmet.
  15. 100"? It´s 107" ws (21:9). And most theaters don´t deliver the sound i want, to much equalized due to complaining woman ("to loud"). --------------- As mentioned before, when watching the movies i don´t care, then i will never see old and wonky or new and misshaped (whatever people might call any version), just costumed guys playing soldiers in a galaxy far away, even on the smaller 60" in the livingroom. If a movie is good, i don´t care as the movie is good - is the movie bad i don´t care cause the movie has bigger problems.
  16. Well, i don´t complain the bad made suits itself, they are just a product of their time, and the lack of money and time then. They are not really good, but good enough to make the film, and we liked them. They did their job quite fine, then. But now, with better material to work from than what we saw 77 as a child, all the shorts are showing with no mercy. But i complain about people mixing their feelings (nostalgia for the old) with reality (no reason todays should be made with the same "mistakes"). If the movie is good, i will watch the movie as i did (and do) the old ones, with fun and shining eyes. Troopers will be just some white armored guys on screen.
  17. The artistry is in finding the design, but unfortunately the execution lacks a lot.
  18. Ouch. not what i would call them. If they would have been that, the OT would look better.
  19. As you have the Anovos helmet, why not go the safe way and buy the Anovos armor kit? It´s price is so much lower, even with customs - why go and risc any possible color difference?
  20. I never called them Deathtrooper. They are Zombietroopers for me since i saw the first pic.
  21. After some time in this hobby you will notice that that is not always correct. To often i´ve seen people accusing others, just to find out later that they didn´t reckognized their own work (not to say they were plain right lying to push competitors out of the way). This range of illegal moneymaking is often a minefield.
