Helmet and Hard Armour
There are no licensed manufacturers of Snowtrooper armour, however,
the fan made ones usually include all armour parts.
Ebay may be a
good place to start, but watch out for cheap deals, they are usually
not worth the money spent.
Ask around the Blizzard Force forum for
info.
Soft Parts

The jacket, trousers and pouches cannot be purchased anywhere, you're
going to have to make those yourself.
The jacket is made of thick
fleece, the pants are made of heavy duty cotton fabric and so are
the pouches.
Gloves
The original gloves used for the movie were Wells Lamont off white
gardening gloves.
It is extremely hard to find any of these anywhere,
but look around, you may get lucky,
we did! Otherwise any off-white gardening gloves will do.
Boots

The boots used in the movie are Canadian Army winter boots, called
Mukluks. These are very expensive, but can be found at some surplus
stores on the internet.
Blaster
The Snowtrooper blaster is the standard Imperial issue Blastech
E-11
blaster. A Hasbro toy version with resin modifications and a coat of black
paint should do the trick. If you don't mind spending lots of money
and carry a lot of weight at events, get the Master Replicas A New
Hope
blaster.
