YAWN......... Come on guys this is a thread about a plastic costume. Not a matter of life and death. <br><br> Chill pills all round. Or a nice wee dram of single malt.

Q: What did the d**k say to the balls?<br> A: "You guys hang around here while I go inside

Well if you're Australian winter 2015 would have been summer 2015 in the northern hemisphere. So not all seasons line up the same. Lol.

This deal only gets worse and worse because you guys aren't patient enough to wait for your orders. I've never seen people get this riled up over a delay on a Stormtrooper costume. At least Anovos are keeping you updated and apologising for unforeseen delays. It could be a lot worse like I've said before. EFX are rubbish at communicating.<br> Just chill out enjoy Christmas with your loved ones and it'll be here soon. Jeez...........

They should use my company policy. <br> "It'll be ready when it's ready and not a moment sooner"<br>

If you ask most people they will under value things sent to avoid the high taxes but with shops and licences for venders it's a different story. It's actually a federal offence not to declare the actual value of the item. An offence as they can't hit you for a handling fee and tax if you don't!

Has no one here ever bought anything from another country before? I'm talking about UK guys importing from outside the EU. <br> It's standard practice to get ripped off when it hits customs here. I anything over £18 is fair game for the customs fellas. <br> You should do your homework before spending your cash. <br><br>

I think everyone should take a chill pill and clam down. How important is it for a grown man to run around in white plastic FFS. Lol

They don't.

I'm glad yours was worth it. Mine was a pile of shucks. Lol it looked like it had been kicking around Matts garage for the 2 1/2 years I waited for it to arrive! Hahahaha........I ordered 2 helmets a set for stun and a Rotj the Rotj arrived with a split in it and the SFS was never sent and the armour was assembled with gallons of superglue. My 2 year old daughter (at the time) could have done better.

EFX does

I have never looked at it!

Well, these cant take any longer to ship than the legend biker helmet I've been waiting on from EFX!!!

Shadow troopers came from the newspaper strips out before star was was even filmed back in the 70's as far as I am aware. They just weren't in the films as of yet.

Looks great! you've done an awesome job. and me proud.....

I might have to dig out my mould taken from a pair of original ROTJ TK Bubble lenses.......Looks like there may be some call for them. Just need to get my workshop finished.... SOOOOOOOOOON...........

Looks great!

Any licences product will be sanitised to a certain extent. If the original helmet was scanned I'm sure it would have been cleaned up. You are never going to get a licenced company to give you drips and chips like the set for stun scan. It ain't gonna happen. The asymmetry will still be there but it will be clean.

I just rivet them on with a single rivet in each clip. As far as I know this is accurate.

Looks great other than that.

You need to paint the soles of your boots white too. <br> Also have you gait a strap between the inner forearm and bicep and a strap to the hand plate.

I have had smaller women successfully fit my armour. Personally if you are concerned about materal then ABS is the best as it's more flexible than HIPS. YOU WILL NEED: Stanley blade or Exacto knife Ratchet clamps Sanding block Lex an scissors Magnets to clamp parts the clamps won't reach. Glue of your choice. I use liquid solvent as I find it's quick and clean and very strong. Elastic for strapping Velcro Seeing machine Paints Brushes Rivet gun and rivets Poppers and setting tool It's a good idea if you have anyone local to get together with to help from your local garrison etc. as it's a little daunting starting out. Cheers! And good luck!

Looking good Trooper..... Another ROTJ in the Jersey ranks!

I look forward to it.

bollox! just thought i'd try again. lol
