Been a member for a.while now but just getting around to posting I mostly collect replica costumes. I currently own BSG (new) series Viper Pilot, GI JOE Destro, Star Wars TK and TB, Firefly Jayne EMT (Ariel), Aliens Colonial Marine , Ghostbuster and a few others. I have limited prop fabrication knowledge but enough to work my way through a conversation ( built my Proton Pack with a little help from scratch). Anyway glad to be on board of this fine establishment.

My longtime friend is a very active member on the boards and directed me here originally.

Hello everyone. My name is Eric, I'm from the 'Great White North of Hoth' [actually Toronto, Canada] and my main area of replica prop interest is lightsabers and other props related to Star Wars and Star Wars costuming. I am also a forum member under this same username [but hyphenated Onli-Won as they allow] of FX-Sabers, TCSS and JSSDC forums. I built my first illuminated saber for Halloween in Oct 1977 [to go with a Don Post helmet and homemade sheet metal armour Vader costume] out of an aluminum flashlight, police traffic wand adapter, nylon tube 'blade' from a golf course and red cellophane filter. It wasn't much of a saber by modern standards and not much of a replica by any standards [close up pics were hard to come by that early] but it glowed red and I used my 'Vocal Focus Saber Core v1.0' to make the requisite "hummmm swoooooshes", Vader helmet muffling notwithstanding. From then I didn't build another saber for almost 30 years, only finding out that a saber hobby even existed when I first saw a Master Replicas Force FX Anakin lightsaber replica on display with the release of SW Ep.III ROTS DVDs. We've come a LONG way baby. After collecting several MR FX I then discovered custom sabers first at Randomsabers, then joined FX-Sabers & TCSS forums, then JSSDC and never looked back...my fall to the Saber Side was complete.

I now look forward to discovering the broader vistas of the prop replica hobby I see here at TheReplicaPropForum and expanding my perspectives. I am poor so do not build many props nor build them quickly due to budget constraints but I have some builds in the works that I will hope to share with y'all in coming months and hope you will find them worthy of a look at that time. Until then Thank You for allowing me to join and MTFBWY.

Hello, I'm Jason from Canada
I have been costuming for three years now and I have been a member of the 405th for that same amount of time and thought it would be nice for a change of scenery.

re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hey everyone! I'm Ben and I have no idea what I'm doing.

But I'm so excited to finally start trying. As soon as I get some spare cash, I'm in for some MDF, Bondo, and one of those bendy dremmel extension thingamaboobers. I'm not sure what my first project will be, but anybody who can direct me to a good "for beginners" kind of intro would be very welcome to send me a PM.

I came to the site via a GD Russian scammer site that I finally found out was a mirror of this one (before you say so, I already changed my passwords and info). How I came to that site was from a very nice build blog of some Daft Punk helmets. I'm completely in awe over the intricacy and detail of most of these projects! I'm going to have to start simple, of course.... but it's an exciting prospect to think that some day I can maybe make an elaborate electro/audio/articulated piece to show off to the world.

Anyhow, enough rambling. Thanks for having me!

re: ** New Members: Please Introduce Yourselves Here! **

Hey guys! Name's Parker. Been lurking for a month or so, joined not too long ago and now finally getting around to standing up in a room of strangers to introduce myself. I've been a long time costumer with most of my stuff being used for burlesque and sideshow type applications. Getting into fabricating more complex stuff with the hopes of making a little money off of something I love to do any way ;D. Most of my intrests lay in the Fallout/Mad Max/Six String Samurai area, but Im currently working on costumes for Renn Faire and some Diesel Punk Sky Captainish costumes for the local con. Thinking I may post some WIP stuff soon...
Cheers!

This post is long over-due....

Hi all, my name is Lisa, am from Australia.

Have enjoyed costume and prop making for the last few years. Always looking forward to the next Supanova con, would love to go to Comic Con one day. Am a member of the 501st and RL, currently have a TK in progress but I've put that project on hold so I can focus on a Mass Effect Legion cosplay.

The best costume I've done so far is a Ravenclaw quidditch costume, which I uploaded to my deviant art gallery. Here is a link to it.

Going to start subscribing to build threads.

Hello everyone,

I'm a saberbuilder from Belgium, did some other props too but all Star Wars related. RL member too.

Got various projects in the works :
- lightsabers : 2 TFU II starkillers, 1 Alliance saber, 1 Ahsoka saber, 3 custom MHS sabers, ...
- 2 jedi communicators
- DL-44 blaster
- Boba Fett blaster (hasbro conversion project)
- Clone commander blaster (also a hasbro conversion project)

Finished projects :
- SW : TCW holocron/Cad Bane project (finished this one together with my buddy Master Jevaho)
- The Senate saber from JQ sabers
- My trooping saber (MHS custom with a MR pcb in it for sound)
- a couple of other sabers for friends
- a pepakura clone wars animated helmed in the stage of the first layer of resin, a show piece for the RL booth at big events (maybe this one will move to the unfinished list someday)

Found out about the replicapropforum on a saberbuilding forum. Hope to learn and share with the rest of the community.

Howdy,

My names Matt, I live in Northampton and have just joined.

Fairly new to pep having just constructed my master chief Halo helmet and torso.

Have now decided to turn my hand to foam Ironman MK 6....

Need scaling advise and people willing to sell completed Ironman parts.

Hoping a Mod reads this and grants me early access to the Junk Yard, as my night out as Stark is on 31st March and I need all the help I can get!

"Help me RPF Mods... You're my only hope"!
