Just so you know, this has been proven to be a recast.

That's why the name sounded familiar.

Since you seem to have already rationalized FN Armour's copying of the fan-sculpted KB Props armor without KB Props' permission, in order to sell it as their own without giving any credit as to its origins, I'm not really sure what anyone here can add that would be useful.

The "well it's ALL recast" argument doesn't really work here, since as far as I know the KB Props armor was fan-sculpted and not derived from Anovos armor. There are points that could be addressed about getting what you pay for, or that most good things are worth the wait, but I won't waste the time saying them here.

I wouldn´t buy from KB if he´s the one and only on this world who´s offering that suit. (Or any of his stuff)

His behaviour is the reason.

He´s a liar, trying to argue "he´s doing it for the community", when all he´s interested in is profit.

Am I reading this thread correctly?
New guy went from asking a seller coupon question to criticising legitimate manufacturer's business practices to justifing his purchase from recaster because the "makers code is bs".
Interesting.

I think most people are wary of B1G1 deals for something like a trooper kit. Most of the time, they're too good to be true or valid only on lesser quality pulls or the like. That, and yes, the recasting issue that was talked about weeks ago. Many members here would prefer to not deal with a trooper kit recaster and would go with any number of alternatives.

However, since the price and lead times were worth it to you, I don't think anyone wanted to try to dissuade you, or were hoping for some other informed member to chime in. If the kit functions well and fits you fine, then that's the best outcome that can happen. As another member has stated, even the original kit maker isn't exactly on the best of terms with other members of the community. Hope your build turns out good.

Legitimate ? Sincerely, yes, I might be quite new here, at least as a registered member, but I roamed forums for quite a while, following things and I could see that the guy you call legitimate is all but nice and clean... If there is a code amongst makers and manufacturer's business practices, then I can see it's all but ethical, even on the seamingly "bright" side of the force...

I came here to ask questions. No one really answered them. I tried myself and it worked. I did receive 2 kits. So I came back here, letting people know I found my answers. Now I won't go into more arguments here. I'm tired just reading about all this, so no, I won't take part of it. There's enough haters threads around to not trash one more with all this.


It's all good, Dude. At the end, what I think or do has no bearing on what you think or do.
Was just surprised you expressed the dismissal of original work so openly.
That always gets to builders on this forum. And does get discussed ad neuseum.
Good luck around the fandom and careful on your purchases.
