Cool!!!

Check it out! Apparently, this armor and set up is from a retired 501st member. Thoughts??? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Stormtrooper-Halloween-Costume-Armor-Kit-Movie-Authentic-501st-Approved-/181234965214?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a32721ade

You guys are true experts. I'm learning so much about the different helmets now. Cheers!

If you're a newbie (like me), I didn't understand all the acronyms & abbreviations on the forums. I got some answers from members, but more recently I found out what each helmet means through the website below: http://www.starwarshelmets.com/fan-made-stormtrooper-armor-submenu.htm Hopefully this will help all the new troopers! I will post my other findings here (I try to read two hours a day on FISD).

What do you think of this helmet? Who do you think made it? http://www.ebay.com/itm/161118479048?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Does anyone have anything thoughts on the upcoming EFX - ANH HERO STORMTROOPER LEGEND HELMET? ----------

Congrats on your armour! Today is my first day on the FISD, where did you order the armour? I live in Silicon Valley, California USA.

My question: I'm starting for scratch here. I found this helmet from EFX website: http://www.efxcollectibles.com Would this helmet be approved by the 501st? EFX says.... "THE DISTINCTIVE DESIGN OF THE STORMTROOPER WAS ORIGINALLY CREATED BY CONCEPT ARTIST RALPH McQUARRIE IN 1975. McQUARRIE DESIGNED SEVERAL VERSIONS OF THE LOOK OF THE EMPIRE’S GENERAL INFANTRY.TO ENSURE THAT YOUR eFX STORMTROOPER HELMET RETAINED ALL OF THE SUBTLE NUANCES OF THE HAND-SCULPTED ORIGINAL, OUR ENGINEERS DIGITALLY SCANNED AND CAST A SURVIVING ORIGINAL HELMET TO RECREATE THIS ICONIC PIECE OF STAR WARS HISTORY."

Thank you to you all! I just joined this website today and un-bookmarked all those sites from my browser. Special Thanks to Nicky Blum of the 501st Legion for guiding me here. I'm new and building my first ANH Stormtrooper costume in hopes of joining the Golden Gate Garrison. Now I have to get use to this website and reach out to the approved vendors.
