sakurawars88 Death Trooper WIP

[sakurawars88]

Hey guys, it's my first time doing Star wars Costume WIP so please understand and freely scold me if I made a mistake!!! 

 

# -> Completed

! -> Need help

~ -> In progress

 

 

 

Helmet (~): ETSY PlasticNFoamStuff -> I just noticed that there is a strict rule to be approved by the 501st, and as I have read the regulations, this doesn't fit the criteria of the Death Trooper helmet. I guess I have to reorder them from somewhere... If you guys have any recommendations, please feel free to leave them in the comments! (Hasbro helmet looks cool!)

-> Just got contacted by Jordan and will order the helmet from him! The specialist helmet with the side scope(magnet) is awesome! 

Date ordered: April 25, 2025

 

Armor(~): I decided to get it from Jinta since he has a finished version... Now I just have to earn enough money to buy

 

Undersuit/Neck Seal/Gasket/Boot cover(~): I am going to order the set from jim tripon  (Will order at the end of next month)

-> Everything is going as planned.

Date ordered and measured: May 9, 2025

 

Pauldron(~): Bought it from ETSY(ArtneoES) and got confirmed it is 501st valid, so I hope it is okay... waiting for the package to arrive

-> This one does not fit the regulation with the DT so I guess I have to sell this to someone else. I've already ordered Jinta set so it is no problem.

Received(ArtneoES) May 2nd, 2025

Date ordered(Jinta Props): April 26, 2025

 

Blaster(~): Bought both E-11D and SE-14R Premium Steel with straps as a bonus from the seller, Imperial Arms

Date ordered: April 23, 2025

 

Boot(~): Ordered the Killer boot from Keeptrooping

Date ordered: May 5, 2025

 

Gloves(~): I plan to purchase them from Endor Finders(Jinta has a whole set, which is great!)

Date ordered: April 26, 2025

 

Belt(~): Will order with Jinta's armor. I couldn't find anywhere else where they sell the materials. 

Date ordered: April 26, 2025

 

I will update them once I have ordered and received them! Hope you guys can give me some advice!

Hi there and best of luck in your build!

Let me know when you get your E-11D blaster in as I'm curious to hear your experience with Imperial Blasters. I'm looking to get a replacement for my broken one.

Sure! As soon as I get them, I will leave a note and a review. I'm sorry that your former blaster was broken... It just saddens me to hear that...

That would be great! I am also planning on ordering a Jinta Death trooper armor kit and i am really curious how the Quality is. There seems to be no one else with a Death Trooper kit from Jinta, so i have no idea if its a waste of money.

I'm also eyeing Jinta, and didn't want to risk buying the DT without seeing another's experience. To quote a Sith: "We will watch your career with great interest."

Got the pauldron but got the wrong one... damn..

Guess I will sell it to someone who needs it.

 

Guys.. if you guys are planning for DT with one try, please read the CRL before buying anything... and I mean anything.
