In 2013 I ordered a TDK suit from Kris at Hell's Kitchen (now Hero Armour / thebatmanofoz I believe). At the time people recommended Kris as the go-to-guy for movie-accurate TDK suit so I went ahead even though it was expensive.
What follows is a story that has been told many times (way too many perhaps). You can see other threads below for similar experiences. In a nutshell, Kris promised a quick turnaround, took the money, and then kept changing the completion date, ignoring emails and messages, giving different explanations each time etc.

A couple of lucky people managed to get their items after about 3 years. I guess I’m breaking some sort of record here for not receiving mine from Kris after 4 years…
I’m not denying the quality of Kris’s work or else I wouldn’t have ordered from him in the first place. It’s the wait that’s ridiculous. Many people did have good experience dealing with him, but for future buyers you may not want to take your chances, especially when you’re paying someone a lot of money…
