  1. Hey Mark, yup, that's what i've gone for... Paul's put me on the list, so it's just a waiting game now... My fallback was AP, but that would have taken the same amount of time.... buy British, buy TM... We need to support our manufacturing industry... hehe

     

    Seriously though, i'm quitely excited..... and wait till my little nephews find out..... a knock on the door... and they see a stormtrooper.... priceless...

     

    BTW, that was one awesome TE helmet that you flogged of.... ... got a spare one.. ;-) lol

     

    cheers

  2. Hey Smitty, lol, I know Trieste train station well.... lol, but no escapades about smooching gals... hehe shhhhhhhhhhhh

     

    Well the good news is that I picked up a Hasbro E-11 blaster (the last on in the entire huge store)... so I figure i'd start doing something until my armour arrives..... (reckon I could use a Jedi mind trick on Paul?... hehe)

     

    But yes, which armour to choose... so many options, but I thought, hey i'll stay with good olde Blighty grown armour, at least spares should be easy to get incase I run into a large woman in some train station somewhere... hehe

     

    Now to get a E-11 conversion kit..... mmmm

  3. Hi Paul in keeping with the 'no want to buy' threads in public we at the ukg send an email or pm with the various armour makers info including prices and contact info.

     

    If you want i can pm you the info too :) which may not be a bad idea as i think the prices may need up dating....

     

    Yes, it seems this 'hobby' is credit crunch proof :lol:

     

    Anyways, thanks for all the thanks Guys.... am looking forward to 'suiting up', got a 2 month wait though.. ;) lol...

     

    Been reading up on the hsitory of armour thread.... OMG, what a long thread that was....... :D

     

    One question, the han solo blaster (when Luke and him are in the Deathstar), is that an E-11?

  4. Greetings Gentlemen & Ladies,

     

    Well this is my first post on this forum and to say i'm pretty excited is an understatment... You can probably guess by the title post that at the moment I am in the midst of choosing which TK armour to get... I have read many forums, UKG, this one (which has some great armour trimming guides), RPF, starwarshelemts and so on... :D

     

    I'm not sure if i'm the only one, but when people embark on such as journey of acquisition, does it generally take so long to make a decision? hehe. I've been looking at this on and off for a while now, and when I went to the StarWars Musical Event at the O2 in London, I made my mind up that I wanted to go along the TK route as i'm kinda short for a Vader... (5 foot 9 inches).. lol

     

    Ideally, I would like to get my hands on a Follano suit .... anyway, any advice, comments, PM's would be greatly appreciated...

     

    Many thanks....

     

    Note: Original post edited as not to mention armour suppliers.. sorry
