Seller 333trip on ebay is great to deal with. He sells the FX kits. My first set of armor was purchased from him. Here . . . ebay Item#150175232628.The FX suits are fan sculpted and not entirely screen accurate, especially the bucket (helmet). So when you say "best" do you mean as in price or accuracy? The FX kits are the cheapest but look great though. I am a member of the 501st and the predominant set of armor used is the FX style. There are a few other "screen accurate" kits out there, but you're gonna pay a bit more. The FX kit also tend to fit larger people better. Here's me in my first FX kit . . . .<img src=\"http://s2.excoboard.com/forums/6170/user/41191/351820.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /> I have another set of armor and four buckets that were basically generated from a movie suit and it is a bit smaller. In my opinion, if you're a first time trooper and not concerned with 100% accuracy, go with FX kit and see how you like it. Trust me, you will. You'll instantly be recognized as a stormtrooper by the general public. Although sometimes I am called Darth Vader, a robot and even the white Power Ranger. LOL!
