Alay Posted August 28, 2018 Author Share Posted August 28, 2018 21 hours ago, Dale Elliott said: How do I start building a costume dark ??Vader Hi Dale, Your first two steps would be to register on the Sith Lords Detachment Forum??and to review the Darth Vader CRL (there's a bunch of different versions)??figure out which version you're going for! I'm not super familiar with building Darth Vader, so I can't really give you much direction, but the Detachment Forum is a fantastic starting point and should have lists of makers as well as experienced builders that can help guide you. Keep in mind, Vader is a very intricate (and expensive!) costume to put together.?? We have a couple in our Garrison that have spent upwards of $3,000 putting together the costume!?? Not trying to discourage you, just want to make sure you know what you're getting into with him ?? Once you start your build. be sure to set up a build thread here so we can follow along and help out where possible!

jimsprenkle Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Vader is a very long build. It took me 3 years to get everything and approved. Do not just buy what you think will be ok as I personally speak from experience. ??The reason it takes so long is the good vendors over at the sith lord detachment have waiting lists that can be up to a year to get you your piece. Also now there are i think 5 versions to pick from and every one is different in some way. First you need to pick what version you are going to do and then look into who is supplying piecer for that version. Again dont buy anything without asking questions about it to avoid overspending and getting taken advantage of and loosing a lot of money for something that wont be appropriate. We have three Vaders here that i know of and we will help as best as possible so dont be afraid to ask a million questions. The only stupid question is the one you dont ask.??
