They just posted on their FB that details for the helmet are coming tomorrow. They have been advertising that a limited quantity are guaranteed to ship before Dec 16th. That would indeed be a first for them.

Anovos just issued an update on their shipping prices. They are working on reducing prices and now won't charge you the shipping price until later next year as they work to reduce them. No guarantee that they will be much better but at least they are aware of the problem.

Yeah I just received the email as well. Must've just happened to go to their site as they went live with it. Still no pricing on the soft goods pack though.

I was perusing the Anovos site looking for updates on my FOTK premier line order when I noticed that they had a link for the Standard Line kit. https://www.anovos.com/collections/star-wars-the-force-awakens/products/star-wars-the-force-awakens-first-order-stormtrooper-standard-kit-pre-order Quick details in case it gets pulled down again. Estimated shipping is Sept 2017 $550 for no helmet, includes latex gaskets. $675 with their standard helmet (a $125 savings vs buying it separate) They talk about an optional accessory kit that includes soft goods, gloves and a neck seal but no link is provided and no price given. Does not include boots. All in all that is not a bad deal! Once I see what the price of the soft goods is I may just cancel my premier line order and wait for this one, even if I have to wait another year.

Looks like you aren't having a problem moving them but I just wanted to jump in a attest to their quality for anyone on the fence. Great looking blaster!

My blaster arrived well ahead of the expected time frame and is simply beautiful! <br><br> Thanks again for the quality prop Heston. I don't suppose you have the plans/capability to make the Sonn-Blas SE-44C sidearm pistol?

I got the notice of the refund the other day. You're the best!

Really??? That's awesome! I was expecting to wait the 3 months like your site said. Can't tell you how happy this makes me!

Reading about all these satisfied customers led to me ordering one myself. Thanks of making a quality blaster Heston!

Best of luck to you!

Shirt arrived in the mail yesterday. Thanks again!

Congrats trooper. Welcome to Centurion!

I've been out of the country the past few weeks so I'm pleased to see that mine didn't get lost in the mail. Looking forward to receiving it soon!

Glad it worked out getting it from Amazon. Mine took about a month to arrive from Anovos back in February and I agree that it is a good helmet. Good luck with your build!

Great as usual. Thanks for doing this!

Well, I went ahead and dropped some coin on this kit. Luckily I had a 10% off coupon to save $225. I have another coupon now from this order if anybody also wants to save 10%. Send me a PM if so.<br><br> EDIT: code has been claimed.

Are you saying that the material of the gaskets and such doesn't feel like good quality?

You could resell the boots if you don't want to wait. I'm sure there is SOMEBODY who would buy them. I'm glad you posted this because knowing the shipping timeline for standard armor is "sometime in 2017" per their FB comment, inclines me to get this one vs waiting. As for myself, I wonder if there is a market for the Premier helmet as I would look to resell that...maybe.

Looking good so far Walter! I'll be keeping tabs on this as you progress. Best of luck!

Congrats and welcome! I had the same thing happen with the photos getting messed up in my EIB thread after I edited something on my iPhone as well. Glad you got it sorted out.

Congrats and welcome!

And here I was complaining about $92 shipping within the US. That's bankers!

I'm really on the fence for this one vs waiting for the standard kit in August. I already have the helmet (see avatar) and could easily get boots elsewhere. They have stated that the Standard kit won't include helmet or boots but I'm wondering if the gaskets and other under parts will be of lesser quality. That premium helmet is $600 alone so the standard kit could be as little as $1300-$1400.

Ummmm, I AM an Anovos buyer. I know they have delays. My TK was 2 months behind. All I'm saying is that they have a target ship date on the page. Even with the expected 2-3 months delays, it should arrive before end of 2016. On the other hand, they have never had this little lead time from announcement to target date, so that leads me to believe that they have their manufacturing up to speed on this one.

Where are you all getting undertermined wait time? It says shipping Sept 2016. As for the price, I imagine that the premier helmet is a large component of that. They were selling that alone for $700. I imagine that the standard line will fall more in the $1200-$1500 range and lower without the helmet.
