I would steer clear of this. This is NOT and approvable kit. There are numerous parts that do not meet CRL standards.

Do not throw the baby with the water, let's discuss it. Most of my hard parts comes from this guy, the only problem about the armor are the weird shoulder bells, I had to replace them with modified mandalorian bells.

I had a chat about these with the maker, he seems convinced that his bells are approvable, but nevermind I didn't bought it through ebay and was allowed to buy it partially.

To me it's the best looking SG kit I've seen so far.

I stand by my statement that this kit is not worth the price it is listed at and is not 501st approvable as the seller claims.

Regarding the auction and the price asked for, I agree, the entire costume is not approvable straight from the box and is quite pricey. I'm just saying that except shoulders the fiberglass armor parts are well done and well finished, for those of us who doesn't have the skills, tools or space to build them, that's an option.

It's up to the people to mix different parts from different makers as I did to mach the crl and assemble their own approvable guard adapted to their body.
