3 Star Wars Prop Builder Instagram Accounts you should be following

3 Star wars Prop Builder Instagram Accounts you should be following.

It's no secret that the Star Wars franchise has brought out the creative side of fans around the world and cosplayers and collectors factor into this in a big way.
The 501st legion have some strict guidelines for costuming under the Star Wars banner and attention to detail is key. Anovos recently entered the collectables market with screen accurate replicas of various costumes and armour from the saga, all of which is 501st certified.

On the slightly more cheaper 'unofficial' side is the home grown prop makers and creative souls that devote their creative skills into creating some of the best Star Wars replica props you can buy without the hefty price tag or waiting times through traditional storefronts like Anovos. You can message these guys through their Insta channels, main website or via Etsy.

Even if you're not looking to buy anything in the form of helmets or armour, these guys are well worth adding to the channels you follow on Instagram.

Jsin_Props

Currently knocking it way out of the ballpark with his latest run of superb looking Mando helmets, Jsin Props delivers some of the most sought after Star Wars props money can buy. If the Anovos wait times and high prices are something you don't want to endure as a collector and you still want that high quality finish and screen accuracy then consider buying your lid or armour from Jsin Props instead because this is his passion and how he earns a living.
Regular posts on his Insta feed really emphasize the sheer dedication and work he puts into the casting and finished products too.




RS Propmasters

There's a real passion behind this UK based team who produce screen accurate replica props, prices are in the higher end but there is at least some flexibility to either have armour in kit form or fully commissioned. Check out the Sandtrooper armour they have, it might set you back some serious cash but if you're looking for fully certified 501st approval then RS Propmasters are the go to guys. Not only do they build a wide variety of Star Wars lids but full armour, they also facilitate repairs and screen used restoration projects as well. Check out their YouTube channel for updates and regular vid blogs.





Armoryshop_official

Based in Russia these guys also produce some of the best looking Star Wars props money can buy, A Death Trooper Mk4 helmet will set you back $300 and a raw cast version will set you back $170. These guys are on the pulse too and even have the red Sith Trooper armour up for grabs at a cool $1200. All of the armor and helmets are 501st 'accepted' which means membership and trooping your armour are easily obtainable. Again, quality here really shines through and they have a well laid out shop in English with some great photos of the kits and casts they sell.
