Run away from this, Timothy, run away very fast (unless you are looking for an expensive Halloween costume).  This person is listed on out "List of people to avoid"  http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/19329-where-what-and-whom-to-avoid-when-buying/

If, however, you are (hopefully) looking to join the 501st, here is a thread that will help you find a set of armor that is from a reputable maker that is 501st approvable:  http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/11538-the-various-types-of-armor-and-where-to-find-them/

Yep. Run Forest run. That's a recast of my armour and helmet. Some parts like the shins are cast from someone else's armour. <br>

Maker of things is one to be avoided. <br>

The only suit that was cast from is one I made. Not cast from an original but casted from Cast from original.

Hey Tim:

The advice given is sound. This person does nothing more than use someone else's armor, makes molds of it, then sells it as his own. That is known in general as piracy but here it is re-casting and is highly frowned upon. Not to mention the material he uses is hyper thin styrene which cracks if you look at it too hard. Stay clear and support FISD and the REAL armor makers.

I forgot to add, Timothy, please don't be sorry about asking questions.  We are here to help!
