This gives you a 2 light setup, the octobox as a key, the shoot though as a fill, if you wanted to you could use your current speedlite as a hair or background light with it in optical slave mode.
That is your bare bones basic studio style kit. I would reccomend also getting a set of sandbags for your stands, and a 5 in 1 reflector...
It's surprisingly sturdy, especially for $23
Note though, that it doesn't include the stand or mount for the speedlight.
Ok so I'm in the US so prices might be different but I found this softbox which has pretty good reviews. I'm not sure what the kit includes as I can't read German but it looks like what you are in search of.
Personally I had to buy my softbox, stand and ring for the speed light separately but I got everything off of amazon (USA site.) You can probably just do a search and find all the things you're looking for.
Edit: I'm not sure if the link is showing up for whatever reason but it was https://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B00PIM3I6I/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅZÕÑ&qid=1494424530&sr=8-15&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=softbox
Actually, I was looking more for the lighting end of things. I ended up going with https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O0NMDYE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ABFSAPU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
As well as https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PIM3I6I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I think this will be flexible enough for me. I've got a newborn and will be mainly using this setup for portrait photography as he grows up.
I'm considering dipping my toe into the waters of flash photography, and have been reading the Strobist articles. I've looked at the suggested gear, but unfortunately most of it is unavailable here in the UK. Could someone take a look at my list and make any suggestions on additions/alternatives?

hijacking your thread to ask a question of my own, but about softboxes. I'm looking for a cheap softbox to use with speedlights.
I think that softboxes are supposed to have 2 layers of diffusers, on inside the softbox. Most cheap softboxes don't seem to have that 2nd diffuser. some have the speedlight aiming at the diffuser others [at the back of the softbox](http://www.amazon.ca/Neewer-Octagonal-Speedlite-Speedlight-Photography/dp/B00PIM3I6I/ref=sr_1_14?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1453247944&sr=1-14&keywords=softbox
)
Which type is better?
Edit: I suck at formatting links.
you can get started with one flash/strobe + reflector and stand or softbox and stand. you don't need a backdrop right away, you can just use any solid color wall.
flash vs strobe. strobes are more powerful and faster cycling but require ac power or battery packs. flashes are more portable.
for a backdrop you can just use these two. it's a bit cheaper.

for the lights, you can just buy stands and softboxes or flash reflectors seperately. i wouldn't recommend that kit. start with one softbox or one flash reflector and stand. then add more as you need.

Best single-speedlight softbox? I've narrowed it down to 3 from amazon.ca (I'm Canadian). Cheers!
