Mark at CFO has been making the MkII for a while already. I bought one from him back in January.

CFO does 1:1 props. There was a website which seems to be gone www.castfromoriginal.com, if you have facebook try a search for cfo or Mark Edwards or sskunky. A search for one of those should do the trick (don't use fb myself). He's a good guy. I bought a ROTJ helmet kit a few years back with zero waiting time, not par for the prop game where people were used to wait for years sometimes.
They have a FB page aswell, just search for Cfo - cast from original. He seems to be working on a ROTJ vader helmet aswell.

Stormtrooper
I would be interested in buying a Sideshow or Hot Toys Stormtrooper E-11 blaster holster, just the holster. If you have the belt could be ok too.

Anyone have a spare tall stormtrooper body, I never liked the way the short trooper looked. I'm thinking of swapping the body out.
Does Hot Toys Stormtrooper is worth more then double then Sideshow version?
I got on my way HT ANH Vader in few days so i want join him some Stormtrooper.
My plan was HT one but i can buy Sideshow version for more then double price difference.
I got sandies from HT and Sideshow side by side and i am happy with both of them.
Hope there is no radical difference between Stormies.

My experience with the Sideshow Stormies:
1 - they have floppy bodies. You can improve the joints with glue or tape or replace the bodies with a new one.
2 - the chest armor is very wide. This can be fixed by carefully heating and bending to reshape it.
3 - all the armor has a matte finish. If you want a glossy ANH Death Star look you can use floor cleaner to shine it up. I don’t remember the brand.
4 - the armor is strapped to the body with black fabric elastic bands. These have likely deteriorated over the years and the armor may hang loose in some places. Cut the elastic out and replace with new elastic bands or Velcro.
Even without these modifications they still make great background troops or one that have already been blasted and their bodies are strewn around.
That’s all I got.
