    Whats the best Stormtrooper armour out there

    Armour FX is the most popular and value for money, but where can I get a set at a reasonable price - E-Bayers seem to over inflate the price because people see E-Bay as the be all & end of of purchasing certain items.

    For FX contact your local 501st guys, but a word of advise don't be so upfront and forward, a more subtle hint generally works better on their forums...

    Something along the lines of

    "I'm interested in getting some armor can someone PM me with the details..."

    And the FX is great for the all around armor but it's not accurate, you will want a TE, AP or Troopermaster set if you are aiming for more accuracy...

    You could also try KOTE as well as UK Garrison.

    After lots of research I'm just in the process of getting TrooperMaster armour, who I've heard nothing but great things about. Plus it's from the UK.

    I went to a Memorabilia recently and saw some guys in good FX armour with modified lids and to be honest they looked fantastic and my untrained eye couldn't really see anything wrong with it.

    The people in the clubs are a great help, but don't post a thread saying 'where do I buy armour?' because it is against the rules.

    There's a guy on eBay uses the name sitharmor has FX armour up for sale sometimes.
    Good seller and the price is better than most, the armour is made well too i've seen some really bad soft pulls of FX armour his is sharp and i think he must undervalue the packages because when i bought a set of black armour from him ages ago i never got charged any import duty.
    If he doesn't have any listed it might be worth a shot sending a message.

    Minty is right about the TM armour, i was after a set myself this year but decided to go for TE2 which is another set of really accurate armour

    Sign up to a few boards and say hello and do some research, some armours suit some troopers needs more than others 2 cents
