Lonescout Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 (edited) FYI...Looks like the German troopers are selling or some one else is using their pics...apology for posting the link but I couldn't resist! LINK REMOVED Edited October 29, 2008 by TB-1019 You knew the rule, yet you went and posted it anyway. Linking to what may be a recast item does not help stop shady dealers, it only sends traffic their way. Please do not do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest skygunbro Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Your a liar my friend in your ebay add you claim that you will not be mass producing these...but here you say its a costume youve had laying around..get your stories straight.. And if you got the helmet from SFP its still a recast of PGHFETTS helmet...as they recasted it..but it wasnt a year ago they only offered it in the last few months and got their original to copy for Korbanth or Randy Johnson.They also dont make their recast of vacced plastic neither do Mike or I when we were offering them to people. Mike and I are the only ones who sold these I believe I sold one or 2 to people in Germany I'll dig up the paper work on them. I have notified your Garrison command staff as well as the armor coalition members and all forums and message boards that petain to SW costuming.hope it was worth it.Welcome to the do not sell list... I hope the Staff here at BSN does the right thing and dumps this punk..it doesnt take a detective to figure out something fishy is going on.

It looks like it's time to dust off the standard response to this, so... *clears throat* ... here it goes... The 501st Legion neither condones nor discourages the act, sale or distribution of recast props and costume parts. The 501st Legion is a costuming club and any ruling on the ethical or moral issues behind the subject of recasting are beyond the scope of the organization. As the Pathfinders Detachment is a supporting element of the 501st Legion, we are obligated to follow Legion policies. It is not the detachment's place to summarily dismiss a member. If, however, a member is found through Legion disciplinary hearing to have acted in a way that is harmful to the organization and its membership and said member is subject to expulsion from the Legion, we would act appropriately to carry out the Legion's ruling. As always, caveat emptor-- buyer beware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
