Hello from SE Portland

Greetings!  I just found out about the 501st, and I am pleased to find a Northwest group.  I am currently looking into a clone trooper or stormtrooper armor project.

So far, from reading posts on clonetrooper.net, I'm interested in Kevin's kits (Imperial Surplus).  Anyone here have experience with these kits?

From researching whitearmor, I'm curious to know more about the ATA and TM armor kits.  Anyone have experience with either of those?  I'm noticing both are somewhat difficult to come by.

Finally, thanks so much for creating this group and forum!  Amazing to see so much creativity and dedication!

Welcome aboard, we can always use more stormtroopers!

I have Kevin's clone kit. I've been trooping pretty steady with it for almost 3.5 years and have only had a few minor problems. It is a little more pricy compared to some other kits but worth it if you expect to troop for a long time.

Welcome any questions, ask away.

Welcome to the boards!  The more stormies and clones the better!

ATA is really nice looking, screen accurate Stormtrooper armor out of Michigan. It's in the $550-650 range for the complete armor and helmet kit.  The downside is the wait-list. 7 to 9 months for the armor.  Although, you can order just the helmet kit, have that shipped right away, then be added to the wait-list for the armor. That's what I did.
Troopermaster (TM) is even more accurate than ATA, and ships out the UK. I'm not sure what the wait-list looks like. The downside... more than double the cost of ATA.   
As far as clonetrooper kits, KWdesigns are pretty much the cream-of-the-crop! Animated and movie style armor.
