Shepperton Design Studios

Just got off the phone with a nice lady at Shepperton Studios - the folks who made the original Stormtrooper helmets. Apparently they have this Battle Spec helmet in stock and can ship as soon as tomorrow. I'll remain skeptical until I actually see it in my hands - have been bitten once - hope it wont happen again but you never know. Have already sent mail twice but no reply...

I'm excited about this helmet as the Armor FX is just too big - folks who eat sleep and poo Starwars will tell you that the Armor FX just looks wrong and I'm telling you first hand - its wrong! I suppose the person who designed it made it on the large side for folks with large facial parts? Have a look at the comparisons - the Armor FX is the one on the left.
The Battle Spec cost an arm, a leg and a little finger - ended up paying 62,000 yen yen for it.

Was thinking of taking the both of us to Hawaii late Feb - not sure what the weather is like out there at this time of year. Any recommendations?
I'm looking to take flying lessons and enjoy sun sea and sand - or does Hawaii have a rainy season at this tiime of year?
