h3rm1t9536 Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hi All, First post so hello. I'm thinking of getting this kit from Original Stormtrooper.com http://originalstormtrooper.com/stormtrooper-battle-spec-armour--helmet-mega-combo-deal-336-p.asp Does anyone have any experience of the quality of the products from these guys? Many Thanks H PS - Previously bought a kit from Ebay........it was cream coloured and I was hugely disappointed. Lesson learnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skypig[TK] Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Read this first. The various types of armor and where to find them This forum is full of research, tips and how to's. Take some time and read before you make a decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark PWF[Staff] Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Greetings Chris, welcome to the FISD!!! As Michael said, have a look at that thread. Have a look at this one, too: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/19329-where-what-and-whom-to-avoid-when-buying/ Remember your E(vil)bay lesson. You'll be alright.

Holnave (evan_loh)[TK] Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 There are distinct ways in which each armour is built according to each star wars episode. So far originalstormtrooper.com does not comply to these standards and seems to be a mix of these build styles (if I remember right, the thighs are built with return of the jedi style even though they sell a new hope style). In addition their shoulder straps are placed incorrectly. if you get it you risk not getting cleared. However the list the others above have provided are vetted by the fisd and can be cleared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geaux Saints[TK] Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 I believe at that price you could buy from just about any of the approved armorers on FISD and know you have a quality, approvable kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thanks H PS - Previously bought a kit from Ebay........it was cream coloured and I was hugely disappointed. Lesson learnt. Hi, you mean the Battle Spec armor...?! I have it and I'm very happy with it. It is ready to wear but you will have some adjustement to do... The Mega Combo Set isn't good! For the approval you must change the plastic belt into one in canvas... the holster from Mega Combo Set isn't the right one! Blaster isn't the perfect one too... here in the forum, you will find more accurate holster, E11 blaster and neck seal. The Battle Spec armor isn't bad and the price is less than other one... but if you have the budget and "time/patience" take another armor...
