Hey fellow TK brothers and sisters, I have decided to head for the best of the best in TK status. I have an FX suit that I have used and like, but I do not like the bucket. I will searching the boards for tips and links to help me. I want to go ESB. I have found one guy who sells AP helmets for around 325$. I am not sure that is good or not. I hope to get started asap. \

 

So, any tips or do's and don'ts would be appreciated. Wish me luck.

Exactly, If you want to get an AP, go to AP. Unless it's an already assembled AP helmet (because you want to avoid the hassle) you're risking yourself getting a recast, or who knows what.

Ask for high quality pictures, specially the mouth part, the chin and the ears, where you can see the level of detail of the moulds used to make the helmet.

Don't buy without asking the forum experts first.

Regards.

Agreed - why buy from a reseller when you can buy from AP directly?

First, who is AP and where can he be found? 2nd, what about MRCE buckets? I really want to start with the helmet first. If I get that, the other mods will be a must. Thanks for the advice guys.

According to the legend AP is a merchant that lives in Mos Eisley, but I'm not sure...

No, really, isn't there someone in your garrison with an AP armor that can recommend you? I mean, I'm getting an AP and someone from my garrison (Spanish Garrison) served as contact to get to AP. You can also get in contact with him using our old friend Google. But don't look on eBay, you can only reach him through e-mail.

I don't know much about MRCE, but AP is what everybody recommends if you want to be screen accurate. Either that or a Gino's or a TE2, but Gino's are almost impossible to get and I don't have much infor about TE2 or how to get one (an TE2's are not made of ABS if I'm not wrong, so it won't match a FX.)
