  5. Well... I agree to a point, but there's a fat chance a DA would waste any time with this type of thing. Does anyone have a contract or receipt of intended services? Is there a stated shipment date on the paypal? Was there an agreement that Matt would send the armor insured and with tracking info? Who is to say that he never sent it? Not trying to argue for the guy, I am just saying. In the prop community if you get burned you have little recourse. Its all about trusting the "vendor". most people know that Matt can be very slow. A few years back he would deliver albeit slowly. Now I wouldnt risk buying from him. Not so much because I think he would take my money and run, but because I dont have that kind of patience. LOL!!! To all you guys who have lost money on Matt, I feel bad for you. If I were you I would hope that Matt will come through eventually but buy something else that will arrive in a few weeks so you can enjoy the hobby. Chances are that you may get something from him at some point, but dont count on it. Its too bad it ended up this way for him because he really could have been the "Trooper Expert". He is THE reason we have accurate armor today. He just went sour.
  6. How do you file charges against someone when you are both involved in an illegal purchase?
  7. Mac all the way.. PC's suck balls....
  8. Gotta see it.. I wonder if its OK for the kids?
  9. VT does get his decals from me. I also make them for TE2, AP, CAP2 and PT. Occasionally I make em for OSCS too
  10. When I saw the helmets at CC they looked like screen printed black over white vinyl. The tube stripes are white and blue. I think they would have been done at the same time. They also appear to be cut out by hand and not die cut. The only way to duplicate that would be to do it at home, low budget style. The screen is a low linescreen level as well, so you really see the cross patterns easily with the eye. My ROTJ decals are not as accurate as I had hoped. They are screen printed at a higher resolution. I think that the matte lamination killed the color as well. The printer will only credit me half the expenses on a reprint, so I opted to forget it for now. Next time no matte lamination. I also would have liked a better helmet to scale them on as I think Matt's helmet had been modified...In the mean time they still look great.
  11. Out Freakin' Standing job on that armor! Looks great man!
  12. Man... I cannot figure out whats wring with my links!
  13. No, but Krylon Gloss White is not bad if applied well enough. Rustoleum is best for high gloss, but heat is the real deal killer. You may be OK at the current temp and humidity. I have stopped using it because its just too damned finicky out here in the summer.
