Where can i get a StormTrooper Key ?

[acidtrip69]

Hello. As the Title says. Where can i get a StormTrooper key ? Needs to be for cherry. I want it to be plastic, also looking for one metal one. So were can i guy one ? From the maker. I'm not sure if i want to buy from a resaller ? I might think about it if that person has a reasonable price.

[esoomenona]

Generally, the girlDC caps (the metal Stormtrooper) don't get sold for excessive amounts of money, but rather for what the person bought it for, or a lot of times for less. And you won't get one from the maker of them, I don't believe. So you should be fine buying one from another member here.

Plastic? I don't know.

Then that's the price you've got to pay.

These are quite rare, expect the price to match.

maybe you should bid on the auction.  You have stated you are only here to find sales, not to make friends.  Why would anyone help you when you have clearly stated your attitude towards this community.

Why are you even posting here if you have no info to give. On other threads were people asked for some info i gave the info i knew or what ever that could help them. And Yes I'm mostly looking only to find sales or keys or anything that I'm looking for. So whats your problem with that ? Its my personal life and i can do with what i want.

[Pacifist]

yea you can do that just don't be a **** about it

people suggested that you bid on the auction because you want the keycap so bad but then you turn around and be a ****  and complain

[tjcaustin]

Well, pacifist said it before I could.

[SpAmRaY]

Is this the cap in question?

[rowdy]

Maybe the one here?

Already mentioned and the OP won't even spend the starting $75

Its $75 for one key ! I can get a mech keyboard for that price. I would be all right if they were in the $30's. I just ordered some keys form Binge this morning ^_^ and i have some keys coming from a Taobao using a proxy.

its an auction, and dustin has already raised it to $160

[Findecanor]

Sorry guys, but that is not a Stormtrooper key cap in the charity auction. That is an Episode 3 Clone trooper!
The Stormtrooper's helmet does not have a mohawk at the top of the helmet and the eyes/visor doesn't have a slit down the nose.
Trust me on seeing the difference. I'm a member of George Lucas' favourite Star Wars costuming club (the 501'st Legion) and I have built that kind of helmet in full size.

But I think that I have seen real Stormtrooper keycaps on this forum... so they should exist.

I was wondering something about that. I thought they just changed it around to not get in trouble or something.

Acid, I've seen you on this forum for a while now. You've been looking for some special keys like this stormtrooper or having your avatar printed on PBT.
But every single time you complain about pricing.

You want somethings special/rare/custom? Well, get ready to pay the production prices (which includes development of that particular mold) or if you are not in time, market prices...
Deal with it or stop complaining.

The stormtrooper cap in white is probably a lego helmet cut in half and connected through putty.
Otherwise there are the GirlDC caps like this one.

iirc moq is 25 @2.25 each so it would cost 56.25 but you would have 25 of em

[JaccoW]

Exactly. And Ivan already told you that.

Hey Acid Trip.  Thanks for ordering a key from my store.

To clarify a few things...

The storm trooper key made by GirlDC is cast and electroplated sterling silver.  Being semi-precious they retail for close to $100.  That is before you factor in re-sale value due to rarity.  I recently purchased a ghost key it's cute but was a wallet breaker.

The Trooper in the charity auction is not publicly available.  He's not quite sure what to do with it yet.

Making licensed figures into keycaps for profit is not on everyone's to-do list especially since Disney bought the Star Wars franchise.  There is a lot of risk for small time guys like me if we make the wrong moves.  If you see something like this expect it to be very small and over quickly.  This is to avoid getting the wrong kind of attention.

I hope this info helps more than it discourages you from looking.  I just hope you understand it will not come at a low price.
