So recently I came across a local here in Fayetteville who is selling Shadow Trooper Armor for $300. I'm going over to his house this weekend to inspect the Armor, and take pics to post here (to get everyone's opinion), but considering my son wants to join the 501st, and we've been looking for an affordable option that includes Armor (he wants TK or Tie Armor), I figure if the kit is legit, the price is right. My only concern is the guy isn't in the 501st, and honestly never heard of the organization. He bought the Armor years ago, and wore it to movie premiers and events, but never happened across a 501st member (I guess it's not out of the realm of possibility, considering there are so few of us in Fayetteville). My question is, I've been out of the Armor game so long, and I know my FX Armor I wore back between 2002-2005 probably wouldn't pass today, what should I look for?

Now for MY update on my Imperial Officers Uniform. So far I've purchased my Belt & Rank Bar from Tigg Wolf Creations found a nice set of Equestrian Boots, I've ordered my Rank Cylinders & Belt Boxes, now to order my Uniform and Hat once I get the funds. It's coming slowly, but steadily...

Hey Buddy, is he making the armor,or selling kits?

if you could get some photos from him, and put themm here or message me with them. Like you mentioned, some things are no longer approvable. look at the size of the ab buttons, and the helmet of course. also the boots.

good luck, and hope to see what you get.

also, great wors on your costume in progress.
