- Are you looking for a stormtrooper costume? Unsure where to buy? It's a minefield, right!
Here are some tips on how to make an informed first purchase for a Stormtrooper costume (armour/armor). I look more closely and critically at some popular online shops and what they have on offer.

I recently placed an order for a set of assembled ESB TK armor, from Walt’s Trooper Factory. From my research, it is the most screen accurate TK armor at a reasonable price. Walt will also do a payment plan. His builders will be taking my personal measurements, and then send me pieces to test fit, while video chatting with me, and have me mark them for any fitment mods, before I send the pieces back. They are based in the USA, where I live. I should have my armor in the next couple of months, or so.
Thinking of buying a stormtrooper outfit for charity work. This video is amazing and a great help. Thank you
I love the 501st crew! Met a bunch of them at various conventions and they’re the nicest guys and gals ever!
Dave's darkside depot, absolutely the best, almost centurion out of the box, just assemble
Just recently bought a stormtrooper suit , can't wait to wear it out somewhere. I really look at a lot of them. I didn't go with a cheap suit.
I have an ANOVOS kit, and I knew it was going to be on this list. I'm not upset at the mild inaccuracies. People recommend against ANOVOS because of their shit customer service, their outrageous wait times and unacceptable business practices.
I'm glad I got Anovos, it was fun to build and a reasonably good quality but holy shit I ordered it in November and got it in August of next year. Hard to recommend Anovos to anyone, but I at least don't regret mine.
Anovos shit the bed and went out business for their deceptive and shady business practices, and now we have another incarnation taking over.....I bet they're exactly the same. Scumbags.
Very good video. I bought the Armor FX kit sometime around 2001, whilst I was satisfied with the suit the helmet was way too big and looked so wrong. I ended up using the Classic Action made helmet instead.
Amazing video! Earned my like👍
I just received an AM kit from Florida. Centurion specs out of the box.
As I said to another commenter, I'm glad I got Anovos, some of the inaccuracies are fixed by just assembling it properly which it appears the website did not. It was fun to build and reasonably easy considering the helmet comes fully assembled and painted and a good quality all around but holy shit I ordered it in November and got it in August of next year. Hard to recommend Anovos to anyone, especially since I despise the fact that Disney is only allowing one company to make accurate Star Wars costumes but I at least don't regret mine.
And most importantly it wasn't nearly as expensive then as it is today. I would never have bought it for its modern price.
Glad it worked out for you. The launch price was certainly competitive.
OK, this is going to be useful since I'm not 100% convinced the RS kit will fit me (something about being a little bit short for a Stormtrooper) and have been trying to shop around a bit.
How tall are you? I'm just under 5'8" and screen accurate armour (RS or TM) works perfectly for me.
@@RichieStormtrooper 5'6 and already moved on to putting together a TI rig using their kit for the helmet.
@@PinkThorn242 Awesome choice and, whatever your height, a lot more comfortable on the legs 😂
I think I’m 5’8 or 9 would an rs set fit me
I am 5'4" and 130 pounds. I got mine as you see in my picture from RS Propmasters. They worked with me when I emailed them and they emailed me back. Asked for certain measurements and all. I have no issues with mine at all. Fits well and some wiggle room as well. So they should be able to work with you as well. Great customer service. Mine was approved when I joined 501st. They can make it to your measurements no matter height they said to me.
I understand what your saying but it also depends what your using it for and plus most people want know the difference unless your with the 501st
But for basically the same price why not get the better version?
Rspropmasters!!!!
Where can I get blasters from?
Which do you recommend? ABS or PVC?
If you dont velcro the calf pieces, how do I get my foot through it?

So, i will buy this one, thank you ;)
im doing armoryshop it cost around 700=860 and sith troopers range t about 1200
I'm intrigued to know if you ever received your armour...I certainly didn't receive my order :/
@@yodasscrotum lol i never got even near the amount kinda forgot abt it lol
I want one I cant get nothing
Wish I had one, but is too expensive ;(
Yeah, armor is so darn expensive and I don’t understand why
where can i find accurate kid sized ones???
FredBear Gaming 98 they don’t exactly exist in the standards you’re looking for mate
Troopermaster does kids' armour in various sizes.
RS prop masters go check them out they have movie accurate Aamir that cheaper than original storm trooper
Yes yes yes yes yes
I don't have that money and will just make it out of foam
Sadly troopermaster has been called out by cfo due to recasting a ROTJ helmet.
If you've been following the channel, you may have noticed a few videos have been taken down.
But thanks for the info cause im looking to buy one only for kids entertainment purpose
Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it.
I agree that most people won't know the difference. That said, there are other options which cost less and are not sold at inflated prices based on a lie. SDS make very bold claims and charge high prices. What you get is a recast of other people's work with some inaccurate assembly techniques and pointless modifications.
@@RichieStormtrooper thanks but you are right and plus i only live round the corner from rs prop masters im from stockport ive looked at there website they look decent
And i will keep watching your videos cause ive learnt a lot ive watched plenty of different peoples videos but yours ive i really like and when i do get a stormtrooper armour if im stuck i will get incontact for advice thanks again
Can't go wrong with RS Prop Masters. Really nice people and the product is the real deal.
Rs propmaster do good stormtrooper costume
Although the OriginalStormtrooper outfits have the small differences like the chestpiece, belt, and calf area, I actually prefer the look. It looks like a sleeker, more modernized ANH suit. Not completely accurate though, so I can understand from a collector's standpoint, why they might go elsewhere. I don't have one yet, but I think I might go with the OriginalStormtrooper.
Each to their own, however, you would pay through the roof prices for orignalstormtrooper for a really innaccurate product. I’m not quite sure why you’d want to do that? Unless I’m missing something.
I had a friend who does 501 and he setteled on oringal stormtrooper because the minor small detail that are "inacerate" don't bother him or me much (suit fits him better im too short to be one lol)
@@awesomeninja9178 interesting choice. Although, once you look into it, the OriginalStormtrooper products are far from “a little innacurate”. They are also vastly overpriced. So, you pay more for something that is further away from the original suits.
Doesn’t make any sense to me, but, as above, each to their own.
If I wanted a Ferrari, I wouldn’t accept paying MORE for a lower specification Fiat. ;-)
@@cableguydan well like I stated my friend is the trooper not me and he took oringal stormtrooper because it's the most common site and most other 501 members reffered to that site than others.
@@awesomeninja9178 I hate to say it but, that sounds very unlikely. As a member myself, I’d say 9 out of 10 people (or more) stay well away from OriginalStormtrooper (or SDS as it used to be known). Only the Spanish garrison seems to be keen on SDS.
I’m not trying to be funny with you, of course. Just don’t want innocent people spending way more than they need to for a very substandard product. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Don't forget with Anovos or Anoshow - you will be waiting a very very long time for the kit after you have purchased it
To that I can only say ... Don't forget to watch the video before commenting!
3:18 to skip the faff into.
