ThayNerd[TK] Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 LOL that’s funny. I ask my girlfriend (soon to be fiancé) if she wanted a pink TK helmet and she laughed and said no. I would totally make one for her thought if she wanted one. Quote
oiftanker Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 yeah i was talking to my wife last night and we were discussing pink abs... i wonder if you can get pink abs and i could convince someone to pull me a set of fx for her. cheap recast would be fine... she wouldn't know or care. Quote
Random1156 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 I know you can order ABS in different colors...just don't know if pink is one of them... Quote

I think the hardest part would be getting the same pink color of the helmet so that it matches and looks like it belongs together. Quote
Random1156 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 One of the suppliers doesn't have pink, and another will do custom colors... So...you could get it done...or just paint a white one pink... Quote
bluehickey Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Posted May 19, 2009 Yeah, and if you wanted to make the entire costume look even more girly, instead of wearing a solid black under suit, she should wear a black lace body suit instead! Quote
oiftanker Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 well i'm gonna get my own armor first... <---- naked at the moment. then i'll work on hers lol Quote
gjw Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 Apparently pink troopers showed up at the LFL/Ainsworth trial in England as a sign of protest/solidarity. Leave it to the brits.... Quote
geordietrooper Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 I know you can order ABS in different colors...just don't know if pink is one of them... the one in that link is fibreglass so im guessing recast Quote
oiftanker Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 honestly though if i was to have pink stormtrooper armor / helmet... who cares if it looks accurate... its pink!!!!!!!!! Quote
Smitty Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 Its not PINK! Its light red... (honk if you <3 Red vs Blue) I remember when TE was trying to sell one of these. This however is not the same helmet TE was selling. Quote
oiftanker Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 i'd take a black one... smitty dont you have one lying around??? lol Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 It is a horrible recast Yes it is, I didn't say anything in my first post because it was pink. LOL Quote
bluehickey Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Posted May 19, 2009 Yes it is, I didn't say anything in my first post because it was pink. LOL So if this helmet is a horrible recast and is an odd color, what is a reasonable price for it? I personally think that an opening bid of $250, plus $70 for shipping for a total of $320 is way too high. Quote

Smitty Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 i'd take a black one... smitty dont you have one lying around??? lol I do, but it belongs to the person thats holding my DragonCon room at the Hilton this year. No bucket....no D*C room. I like you man, but not that much Quote
Billhag Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) Here's one for ya. A protester spotted at the recent G20 submit demonstrations here in the City of London Viva le revolution!!......yerh right =-------- Edited February 22, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 That price is outrageous for that helmet. The most someone should charge for that is like $150 max including the shipping, even that might be too high. Quote

Insane what people think their stuff is worth... Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 20, 2009 Report Posted May 20, 2009 It's not the color so much, just a very poorly done bucket that's sad. Bill's is EIB worthy, at least ;-) Quote
