    Do any of these armor makers do black shadow stormtrooper armor? The only one I've emailed is RS and that was a week ago and haven't heard back from them but I totally understand, I have read many posts on how busy they are and to be pataint, but I also was told that they don't make the back armor.

    My first attempt at buying armor was well, I'll say a costly mistake, but with a little help from this site my eyes were opened to the crappy armor this company sells. I was able to return the armor for a full refund minus shipping, which was about $105 plus another $27 for the return shipping cause I never opened the box and shipped it back out the same day I received it. So a lesson learned but luckily not the most expensive one of being stuck with crappy armor. I was given a list of sellers that are known for there quality, the first of which I tried is RS props. I've sent two emails to them with no response other than the automated email that says they received my email and they'll try to respond in 24 hrs. But sometimes it may take a little longer. so far its been a week since the first email. I was wondering if anyone else has done business with them and if so is this normal for them not to respond back?

    Thank you for your feed back I don't think I can cancel the order cause its already been shipped, I'm gonna send an email and see if they'll take the return I work for UPS and I know if I don't open the box and refuse delivery they'll send it back without charge but I don't know if stormtrooper costumes will except it back ill see. I was just looking at there site again and they advertised that is is made out of 2.5 mm plastic that will not crack and also says that their proud that many costume groups including members of the 501st have bought there armor, that was the final reason I decided to purchase the armor from them that and the fact everything was included boots, gloves, blaster, helmet, undersuit, and blaster holster, they also said it was a true Shepperton replica. The big plus also was they put it altogether for you, and me not having any idea where to start this sounded like the right way to go. If I'm able to send it back, where should I look to get the highest quality suit? And will it be a kit or can I have a professional assemble it for me? I want it done right and be up to 501st code

    I am new to all of this and after a little research I ordered a shadow stormtrooper complete armor suit from Jedi Robe there site looked and sounded very professional I am currently waiting, I just received a shipment email today they took all my measurements for sizing. While I've been waiting I have been doing more research which led me here. After reading the do's and don'ts and who not to buy from my stomach dropped, I spent a lot of money on the armor a little over $1600 US with shipping and thought I was getting the best I could get, now I'm not sure where I should go from here please help I want to join the 501st and want the best or as close to the best as I can get.
