Heya guys and gals ,
Thanks for all the votes so far. Seems pretty unanimous for option #1 so far.
It is actually best for everyone when you get right down to it. I'll continue to watch this thread until tomorrow afternoon, in case anyone else finds there way here with any other constructive comments or criticisms before making a decision.
Animatronic - not in great taste bro, but it's all good. Everyone is welcome.
To answer a few questions :
The butt plate WILL be included. My bad for not listing that, sorry. I forget about it sometimes because it's not vac formed like everything else. It's a "cookie cutter" approach on that piece - trimmed from a straight sheet of styrene. But it is included.
As far as the term of availability goes ... even if there is a month that I break from armor to do a run of something else that has been in demand, like gauntlets for instance, this would only be temporary. As long as there is demand, I will continue to make these available to the members here at TDH, with whichever method is chosen.
In my first post, I neglected to add that I have also decided that from this point forth, any Fett related parts that I share will be exclusive to TDH.
This forum has grown to be "THE" foremost source of information for anything Fett over the years. Thanks to our board owner, the hard work of the Administration as a whole, and the dedication of our members. There have been many ups, and many downs over the years, but at the end of the day, when all is said and done ... everyone interested in Fett costuming eventually finds their way here. There is a lot to be said about that. We've all grown over the years with the forum, myself included. There is no better way that I know to pay tribute to this than to offer this exclusivity.
I only ask for a couple of small things in return -
First and foremost, I ask that you respect all the guidelines here at TDH of course, but more specifically, recasting - the more we keep this under control, the more talent we will draw to this board that will be willing to share.
Secondly, keep making the forum look great with your amazing individual and collective talents. The best dressed in star wars costuming, start at TDH. :cheers
