So for a few months I keep seeing this USCM armor from a guy in Canada pop up on eBay. What are the reactions to it?

Obviously, due to forum rules about posting, I won't list it. Was just wanting a good... feel for it.

I'm guess you are talking about this stuff??? I don't know quite what to say...

Yeah, that's the ticket. That stuff.

Please don't tell me you're seriously thinking about buying that set?

Seriously?

No, seriously?

C'mon?

Stormtrooper armour..................................sort of

What's wrong with it?

I bought a set and I thin its the best armor I've ever seen!

What a POS! Save your money and put it towards a set of Spat's. I would be freakin' embarrassed to wear that crap at a con. This is from a Canadian. Oh by the way, I'm NOT on the Spat payroll

Lol. Never said I was going to buy a set. Just wondered what everyone else thought...

Course I may have to if no one bids on my auctions... *cough*

If that set of armor was more that $50, it's a waste of money. You can buy a sheet of Sintra and cut and bend that armor yourself for less.

And we would all respect you a lot more if you actually made bad armor yourself, rather than paid someone else for it.

And don't worry, Nick, I have Sintra here, left over from a set of Fett armor I made years ago, so I'll be sending you a set of armor that looks just like that Canadian set instead. And don't worry about a refund, it'll be the same price.

LOL. Don't worry Spat, I wouldn't settle for the canadian stuff. Besides I worship your armor too much.

I'm going to make some from white cardboard; that way I can colour it in with my felt pens and wax crayons to make it look proper L33T!

It looks just like Terry English armour once you have it strapped up, and painted!

Here is the pic he sent me:



LOOKS AWESOME!!!

I ordered a set as soon as I found the guy- I'll let you know how it turns out!!


OOU-RAH!!

I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me! WHY DIDN'T YOU BELIEVE ME!?!

...and the Canuck guy even got Doug to model the armour for him...although Doug is looking a bit rough these days...FX work seems to have had a nasty effect on him.

Are you just joking Kev or did he actually send you that picture. I can't believe he would be that cheeky given how obviously crappy looking his armour is.

Darren

You guys are mean.

Or maybe, not mean enough. I can never tell.

Wow that is fine quality stuff right there. Hey Spat is your adjustable/resizable just by using a blow dryer? That alone tells me I need a set. WOOT........

See guys, I was trying to be nice... didn't know if he was one of the Gaggle of Candians on this board... but you guys are just cruel.

_________________

I personally don't see an issue with his armor.

Its basic, VERY flat and will require a lot of work.

Spat's......well that arrives ready to wear.
This arrives ready to be worked on

But....to be honest you could work on it for hours on end and it will still be just as flimsy and frail as it looks in the pic.

I did get a chuckle when he said you could use velcro to add it to your outfit. Velcro? What, like it's Fett armor or something?
