thats cool you wanna get into this. the difference between a TK and a tusken is enormous! You should consider costs and flexibility issues. I've heard tuskens are about maybe 300 when its all said and done but a TK could run you over a grand depending on which set you want plus accessories. Also a tusken is a very mobile costume that doesn't need to be repaired often with very low visibility whereas a TK is a very unforgiving costume that requires lots of constant repairs with decent visibilty. These are just some things i've noticed in the short time i've been with the group.

As far as TK armor goes. You also have to decide what KIND you want. The TK armor can range from $650 to over a $1000.00. The more accurate you want, the more it will cost.
