ill_hamstring 14 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Hi all! I’m Lisa, I’m from Dublin and I’m a relatively new Star Wars fan. I got into it last year over the lockdown as per a friends recommendation. Safe to say I was a fast fan and instantly took a liking to it and all the fan stuff that comes with it! I just placed my order with RSpropmaster for a Tie Pilot suit! I’m so excited and can’t wait for it to arrive. I did have to buy the boots separately since they didn’t have my size - but other than that I just have to get an E11 and an aker amp and I’m all set! Very excited to get to know everyone and just have fun in the forums! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Straight Razor 25 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Welcome Aboard Lisa. Great choice of costume. Sound like your making great progress. If you want to get a side arm made a lot of members use a site called Breaking the mould. You'll find it on Facebook. A guy called Jimmy runs it. Very good standard of quality and service. And he's bases in Dublin so no customs to deal with. Most of our pilots carry a DL44 If you don't fancy lugging around the E11. For a helmet and armour kit I suggest a DA kit. Great quality and not too difficult to work with. If you need more info please feel free to ask. 2 Quote Ken Link to post Share on other sites
ill_hamstring 14 Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 Ahh thanks for the recommendation for the DL44! I was looking at original stormtrooper for a E11, but I might grab a DL44 that’s easier to carry around. I’ll be sure to send in my costume for approval once it arrives! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
