The 501st is made up of a huge array of different minded individuals, much like this community. I wouldn't lump all of the 501st into that one judgement call. I realize there are some.
As for why some members in the 501st would dismiss the EFX TK suit or "tear it apart", well, that's their choice. It isn't "The 501st" as a whole doing it, just individuals.
They can definitely correct me if I am wrong but from what I've experienced with the Anovos crew is they are a lot like I have been all of my 15 years doing this, with wanting to make costumes, ... that get worn, used, and abused ... so I believe they want to achieve as much accuracy as they can while providing a high quality costume that can be worn and depended on to hold up (unlike how most original movie costumes were made), while staying within the obvious and inevitable confines of manufacturing and smart business making decisions.
Thanks for the all the support, all. David alluded to it between EFX, UDReplicas and ANOVOS, this is going to be a killer time to be a Star Wars fan !
What's crazy is I was JUST at Fan Expo in Vancouver, and the 501st was there. They had their usual costumes and an R2 unit, and on the table a couple lightsaber hilts. Crazy inaccurate hilts. Like a thick necked Obi-Wan, and a weird grip Luke. Gotta say I was a little disappointed in them. Weaponry not as picked over?
