BIG court cause against Andrew Ainsworth by Lucas Film. Ainsworth says he owns the likeness rights to the stormtrooper and other suits, Lucas actually does and took him to court over it and won. But, since Ainsworth is in the UK the US can't touch him, as long as he doesn't import suits and parts. So he still sells stuff, but anything he sends to the US is flagged at the border, and usually confescated. Plus, his stuff is WAY WAY overrated and oer priced.

Get some Ap or TE armor, it looks better anyways. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />

I have to agree.Turns out that while that guy made the suits in the films, his copies are NOT from original molds like he says. There are better cheaper alternatives out there.Pat
Star Wars Props - travsall - 10-15-2008
Exactly. That's what kills me, he SWEARS up and down, they're the same molds from 77 that's his biggest selling point and it's bullshit! Basically you're paying a TON more for an asshole to write his name on the inside of your armor. cha0s is exactly right, Ap and TE are the best suits out there, they're pricey, but far less then AA, and you know where they come from. If you're just lookin for a helmet Jon, there's a LOT out there that are fantastic and any version you want, stunt, bumpy stunt, hero, Luke hero, Han hero, ANH, ESB, ROTJ, Sandy etc etc etc the RPF you seek
also, if ya haven't been there before check this site out for GREAT references <a href=\"http://www.starwarshelmets.com/\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.starwarshelmets.com/</a>

I have one of those UK stormie buckets, and for $99 plus shipping on E-bay you just cannot go wrong.I do not care what all the accuracy nuts say.It is a great bucket, and is really comfortable to wear.there is a shepperton on e-bay too, but it is already up to $200, and looks no better than this one.<a href=\"http://cgi.ebay.com/MASTER-REPLICAS-STAR-WARS-STORMTROOPER-HELMET-STUNT-CE_W0QQitemZ120318332417QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item120318332417&_trkparms=72%3A1420|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12|240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14\" target=\"_blank\">http://cgi.ebay.com/MASTER-REPLICAS-STAR-W...id=p3286.c0.m14</a>

You can try getting Sgt. Fang on TDH, or the RPF. He does TIE helmets.
