Why don't ask MonCal if he sells separate pieces?

Stormtrooper by Herocross - Hybrid Metal Figuration #005:

BTW was the Pugman (cleaned-up) used for the old Don Post Stormtrooper statue: http://www.starwarsh...er_helmets.htm?

Wish there was the real t-track found. Gino's might be good but it is a creation and not a real t-track and the price is crazy for some plastic rods, though my Sterling came with Gino t-tracks installed by Cking and Vos. Marv's t-tracks are really cool though and I have 2 sets of those as well.

Thanks guys! And thanks Glen.

The problem is we were talking about TK helmets for some time, I always advised them to avoid ebay, and I already showed them where to go and get good stuff: FISD, RPF, CfO, RS Prop Masters, Laws, MonCal etc. etc. I also showed the FISD thread about the good helmet/armor makers and the section with the ebay crappola armors and helmets. But they both ignored my advices, and went up for this bucket... What else could I do to make them understand what is going on?

I have SDS and there are quite some differences. Besides: vocorder is too smooth, stripes put wrongly, bad looking trapezoids, some kind of weird symmetry in the mic tips area

I showed them both really cool accurate helmets out there (including for sale threads here) and still they went for this because is cheap. As one says: "we are too poor to buy cheap stuff". Save a bit more and get better quality. Quite simple. Curious what is it recast of though?

He bought this lid without asking first, being advised by a another guy who doesn't know the difference between a Stormtrooper and Snow White...

I have my own opinion on this (oh man, someone I know bought it ) but I'd like confirmation from you guys too: http://www.ebay.com/...=p2047675.l2557 Star Wars 1:1 Stormtrooper Fiberglass Helmet Movie Life Size.

Thank you Mathias. A very cool blaster, I love its roughness

A superb rough stunt blaster just arrived: RS Prop Masters ESB Replica Stunt Stormtrooper Blaster Limited Run. LOVE IT!!! From RS Prop Masters Facebook page: The iconic E-11 stunt blaster from ESB, created from the original 'Pugman' blaster, direct lineage, it doesn't get any better. A must for ESB Stormtroopers and Snowtroopers. Limited to 10. More info on RS Prop Masters Facebook: https://www.facebook...14729332&type=1

Karin, take care!

FANTASTIC!!!!!

Very cool weapons rack there!!

Wow really cool table, that took some time to make for sure.

Very cool newsletter!!

congrats, a really nice collection of blasters. I have Sterling and MR as well as an SDS. The MR is quite cool, very heavy and quite accurate despite a few flaws and idealization.

Indeed, a really cool blaster, especially since personally I didn't see one made before, Bapty's seem always to be forgotten

:lol:

Awesome!! I like is roughness! Want one!

The Droids we are looking for say:

Great blaster Sven, it cannot get any better that a real Sterling!

There are also the flexible Morplan mannequins which IMO are great especially if you get a sale. I have one and is really cool ---------- *Link removed by Locitus because Morplan is doing a search engine optimization and apparently old links interfere with that so they asked us to remove it.

They are nice, but not screen accurate. The Master Replica Collector's Edition / eFX Precision Cast Stormtrooper helmets (and variants such as Black Hole, Sandtrooepr and this Commander) are idealized and more of a display piece, though it doesn't come with a stand or plaque like the MR / eFX Limited Edition. It would take too much to upgrade it to make it to have some accuracy IMO. I have the MR CE together with the eFX LE, and I also own a set of very acurate helmets like TE2, RS CfO etc. and there is a difference indeed.
