For the shoulders, imo the best option is Rob at MWA, but last I heard I bought his last set and it was going to be a year or so till he thought he was going to make any more. But just for you I have been looking for another source for the shoulders. https://www.facebook.com/Axoniselab/?hc_location=ufi Check out that guys FB page, He is in Hong Kong, apparently he makes the shoulders on a 3D printer. You will have to get in contact with him about price, availability, and wait time. But at least I found you a 2nd option!

This is one of the more expensive costumes. If you are having issues with paying $400 for the helmet, you will never finish this costume! I think Grand total my costume cost some where in the neighborhood of $3,500 - $4,000. Keep in mind I am in Germany, and had to pay a lot of import taxes on stuff shipped from out side the EU, but still, it all adds up quickly. $400 for a Helmet is the least of your worries with this costume. $600-$800 for the leather suit $375 for the shoulders (if you can find someone selling them even) $400 Light Saber and and and If you don't want to invest lots of money, make a Jawa costume, you can make the whole costume yourself for $200 or pay someone and get the whole costume for less than $500.

There is no CRL for this costume, so you will probably be the 1st. Being the 1st means lots and lots of research, to include finding vendors or costume builders and the correct materials needed. Where to begin, find all the research photos you like. Figure out what is going to be the hardest thing to make, and then try to find someone out there who can make it, if you cannot make it yourself. I doubt you will find someone who will make the whole costume for you, but you might find people who will build parts for you. I use "Like Linda", https://www.facebook.com/LikeLinda1/?fref=ts she is in Italy, so not to far from you. She does really good work, but has a really long waiting list, and she works with leather and fabric, you can try her, but to make the whole costume will be expensive. I would figure out what you can make yourself, and what you need someone else to make, and organize it all, before you start anything.

Looks good so far

http://www.theflagshipeclipse.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1918-starkiller-dark-lords-armor-hoth/page-2 page 2 about 1/4 of the way down the page right around talking about how the skirt is in 3 parts and not in 4 parts, there was a discussion about getting certain things in the CRL updated for this costume with the XO. Then it was discussed that about 1/3 of the items for this costume, are not even listed in the CRL. If you just used what was listed in the CRL, this costume would look rather incomplete. Then on page 3 about 3/4 of the way down starting with the Helmet I start to point out errors in the CRL, missing items in the CRL, and questions about the CRL. Then on Page 4 about 1/3 of the way down, I start to talk about the trophy hilts, and that there are only 5 worn hilts, and Shaak'Ti hilt should not be listed in the CRL. In the Game Shaak'Ti dies, falling into a pit, with her lightsaber in hand. Anything could explain how Starkiller got the hilt some how and was wearing it, but there are no graphic I have found or that anyone can show me, that shows starkiller wearing her saber as one of his trophy hilts. I had a hell of a time with this costume, with the CRL being off, missing 1/3 of the Items, and discrepancies in how the costume should look in comparison to what the CRL is showing vs Reference pics.

In the last week I have had several private messages asking if I would not mind helping with info, where I bought my items from, and my opinion in their WIP thread. I am here to be helpful, so maybe you do not struggle like I had to in making this costume, was a good learning experience, but not altogether fun. So for any people looking for my help with their WIP with this costume, no need to ask if I am willing to help, just assume that goes with out saying. Send me your questions in a PM or send me a link to your WIP thread, and I will reply back to you or your thread asap. Cheers, SL-11671

I have seen YouTube video's of the fight, so I know what you are talking about. Also no one can show me any source pictures where starkiller is wearing that lightsaber on his belt. I was trying to get the CRL to be updated, to be more accurate, and to help the next person who came along and wanted to make this costume. It appears that there is not enough interest to update the CRL, so I made my starkiller post as accurate as I could, to try to help any others who were interested in building this costume,

Helmet and shoulders I bought from MyWickedArmor.com Helmet was $400 finished, Shoulders were $375 if I remember right. Also another guy on FB trying to make a run of 12 helmets (kits) and was looking for 2 more people to buy in. Have a look around FB. Leather shirt and pants I bought from Claudio: https://www.facebook.com/swtoys.argentina/?pnref=lhc Please note: Claudio just had a death in the family, so probably not reachable for at least a few weeks. Note: fake leather wont hold up after a couple days of trooping, go with real leather.

Costume looks ok, saber is wrong though

I love this character, will follow your WIP with interest. I have the size and the shaven head for this costume, just not the motivation, knowledge, funds, ect, etc lol

Google "Mywickedarmor.com prices" then click on the link that says "Commisions Acess Area - My Wicked Armor" (for me on google, it is the 2nd option listed) Click the costume you want (Costumes with an "A" are auction only or you have to talk to Rob to make it happen) Look at the prices Order your costume Atm the only costumes you can buy are "Darth Revan", "Darth Nihilus"

Looks plain blue to me!

Good luck! Only tip I can give you is the helmet is in 2 pieces, not 1 solid piece like most helmets.

The thing to keep in mind with Rob from MWA is that he probably gets 300+ emails a day. Keep your message short and to the point. The longer it takes him to read emails, the less time he has to work on costumes. If he doesn't reply after 3 days, send him the same message again, until he replies. Why do you even need to get a hold of him, just go to his page with the prices on it, and you can order it? He doesn't want any links posted to that page just type in MWA prices or something like that in google to find it on your own. Deluxe Revan - $930 Basic Revan - $580 Deluxe Armor Parts Only - $610 Basic Armor Parts Only - $420 Deluxe Robes Only - $320 KOTOR Revan Saber Hilt - $45 Revan Mask Only - $85 Revan Undermask Only - $40 Revan Armor Touch-Up Paint - $5

You mean this costume? http://www.mywickedarmor.com/costumes/Sith%20Stalker/sStalk.htm

Might be helpful to look up what the name of the costume is called in the CRL, that you are planning on building, so there is less confusion as to what you are actually building, so those who have made that costume before you, could be of help. There are like 12 different starkiller costumes, so maybe correctly name what you are building as a starting point! I have made the hoth version, so I would be of little help with a different version, but once you give your costume a name, maybe someone else who has experience building that version will respond. It didn't happen with me, I had to do everything on my own, with a lot of trial and error, no help at all, but I got there!

I question the "Shaak Ti" usage, as I have yet to find any reference pics that he wears this hilt at all, and no one else (as of yet) has been able to show it to me either. Hilts I use: Galen Marek, Kota, Kazdan, Maul, Vader, Sith Stalker

I use a real leather belt to hold my pants up, D-rings around it, wider plastic belt with belt buckle through the D-rings, so no weight is on the belt for show.

Hello, Just a curious question. I just came from the largest event that takes place here in Germany, we had around 220 members show up for the event. It was my 1st event, and I felt like an outcast out of costume, because I didn't have any 501st clothing to wear like everyone else. There were people with various 501st t-shirts, others with 501st Bowling/Racing shirts, and then there were people with Detachment shirts. The Sith Lords all had Sith Lord Detachment Shirts Red and Black with their SL ##### on it, a large picture of Darth Vader on the back, Force Lightning on the sides. The Tie Pilots had Jolly Roger Detachment Shirts, Black and white with a larger Skull and crossbones on the back. The Clone troopers were Black and Pink (Pink is not really my color) ETC ETC Does the Flagship Eclipse have its own Detachment shirt? If no, I guess I have to talk to the Sith Lords Detachment about getting one of their Detachment Shirts instead. If Yes, What are its colors? What is the Image on the back? What is on the side? Where can I order one? I would like to represent the Flagship Eclipse out of costume at events, but I haven't really seen anything in here except the bowling/racing shirt, and it was only a front view, not showing the sides or the back.

I forgot to every post pics of my vest 3.0, packing up my stuff for a large event, so took some pictures of it.

Well this is how my saber hilts turned out, they will all hang individually down, like the pic above.

WOW talk about the squeaky wheel gets the grease!!! lol Hope I didn't step on any toes, I was just wondering, I didn't expect to get the attention of the US MARINES and The Clone Emperor lol Cheers for the help everyone, think I will crawl back in my hole now, way too much attention for me lol

What does one have to do to get Detachment membership? My only costume is EU, yet I still do not have EU membership? On the marketplace post that was closed people were looking for Detachment Patches, and the answer given was you need detachment membership. Now a new topic has been started in the marketplace asking for detachment patches again, and I can only guess it will soon be closed as well? I filled out my info in a post somewhere in here requesting EU membership, still hasn't happened yet, so I am wondering if there is something else I was supposed to do? I would like to get Detachment membership and some Detachment patches, if this is possible?

Hello, Requesting Detachment Access Please SL-11671 http://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=21041 Thank You
