Looking For a Bucket.

Post by Gvanos »

Hey guys, just a quick question, can anyone shoot me a pm of reputable helmet makers? I'm just started planning my RG costume and I noticed that the armour makers are not posted due to risking C&Ds.

Any help is always appreciated!

Thanks

Kit is preferred, but I wouldn't turn down a finished product for a decent price either.

I've seen quite a few on ebay, but have done quite a bit of reading suggesting to just stay away from it altogether when it comes to buckets/armour.

I noticed that an email to FP email got bounced back for me, as well as someone else in a different thread. Anyone know know if they are still operating?

Also I have read that MLC was doing some a while ago that were pretty great. Anyone have any info on that?

Thanks again,

FP is alive and well. I found he has some stuff for sale currently. You could send him a PM through e-bay I suppose.

I contacted MLC (Mardon) in March about his royal guard helmet. He said he is still doing them and that it would take about 2-3 weeks to make the helmet and an additonal 2 weeks for delivery (he's located in the Philipines). I've purchased other SW Fiberglass helmets from him in the past and have been really pleased with them. Let me know if you want his contact info.

FP just emailed me. The messages had bounced back, but they seem to be getting through...

Did you found any information about a helmet maker (Kit) ?

I want to start my first costume and the helmet is a good starting point :trsuit:
