I've just reported him. Lets see what happens........

Quite!

Well the ebayer that said he had destroyed the mould and had no intention of ripping anyone off has relisted the mic tips which are bad copies of mine. Please feel free to bombard him with messages of concern. this is the listing. eBay item number: 221422322926 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221422322926?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Kinda reminds me of my Disney suit!

If you trim the ammo pak so it has no return it should bend fine without heat. Abs is pretty flexible. Hips on the other hand is not.

I can't believe that no one has found an original as of yet. They can't be that rare? Or at least they must have been readily available back then.

I have that pic too. I might get round to sculpting the inner nipple more accurately one day.

Yes ROTJ are different to ANH and ESB. ANH and ESB are the same as each other. I sell both. Yes the general consensus is that they are a water saving aerator tap faucet from the 70's. No one has actually found a real one yet to my knowledge. Keith's are very close and mine aren't bad either. Thanks.

UPDATE 2 I've been assured that he will take down the auction and destroy the moulds. His Intension was not to rip anyone off.

I've just found someone else recasting my mic tips and he's in the UK. Some people! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Screen-Accurate-Stormtrooper-Helmet-Hovi-Mix-Pa2-hollow-cast-Mic-tips-/221407542442?pt=UK_Collectables_SciFi_fantasyCollectables_EH&hash=item338ceafcaa http://resintrooperhelmets.weebly.com/accessories.html Decide for yourself? Mine Hi eBay username is hbark101 I've asked him to remove them but not feeling hopeful. As he's selling recanted resin helmets too.

Woohoo! Can we have tea and cake now? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree. According to TE himself he never gave permission but that's a whole new story. Yes he sold a couple of mould sets but that doesn't add up to the amount of people making armour off the back if it. Anyway this is not a recast discussion so back on topic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

LOL, OK, I take it back as recasting in this case is OK with the MODs. But that's how it was presented to us and as the name was completely different your trading name on here. You cannot expect people to know that. As it looks, it is a bad pull in terms of thickness etc.... I have no problem with lumps or bumps.... If you say that you are working this out then it is wrong of the buyer to air this in public but that's not how we have heard it.... Hope you work this out and if this kind of grievance is aired again in public may I suggest to the OP that all the facts are presented and not just biased one sided facts...... Carry on.........

If he's recasting TE2 and proud of it then I very much doubt he's been accepted by anyone in power to give him the ok to produce and sell this as 501st. There's no way on this planet I'd let anything that shucks go out the door. Even my seconds are 10 times better quality than that. It really pains me that these sad individuals think they can throw out BS and think it's ok. That would have been thrown in the bin if it were my pull. Sorry but it really pisses me off that guys out there just recast other peoples work and list off all the acceptance they've got! Saying that I've had the 501st tell people that my armour is not accepted! A bit rich as it's cast directly from a screen used suit! Haha. If that was me I'd have replaced it without quibble. Good luck.

Thanks buddy! I was hoping to get some more up but I forgot to take photos of the rest of the last build! I'm in the middle of another but had to take this week off as I managed to put my hand through one of my windows showing the guy who surveying my property for new windows how stuck they were! Hahahahaaa I took a small chunk out of my index finger which was a damn sight less damage than it could have been. I'd hate to think what could have happened!

Without sounding out of order you will find it quite hard to get a suit of armour to fit. 5"7" is fairly short so a screen accurate suit would be best for that but 300lb is too large without serious mods. RT MOD is more suited to the larger trooper but not so much the shorter trooper..... I had to go on a serious diet to get a suit on....... Good luck!

Oops double post.

Sds or AA are recasts and not made on original moulds. As much as he would like you to believe they are, they're not. They are a mix of recasted GF and TE all modified to look different. Apart from his helmets which are a hybrid of his own parts.
