https://i.imgur.com/GCZ8hrR.mp4 I posted earlier in the wrong section I think, but super happy on how this turned out! Make sure the volume is on. When I printed my abs, I created a cavity for a 4" speaker and a passive bass port. I house a 20w amplifier in the chest section. The voice modulator is located in the back piece. Im using a wireless mic so there are no wires going to the helmet. Enjoy!

If the tube stripes are stickers you could carefully lift and pull off the front ones and lean forward (from the top) a little more. I have used tape in the past to help pull the stickers off to move. You do have big gaps to the ear so I would add a few more stipes, note the first reference below has 16 stripes. DO reference guide: Ideally at Level 2 tube stripes are approximately 1 cm (5/16ths) away from the cheek, and should also lean toward the front.

Yes. I went with the complete package on electronics.

Nice work, looks great

Welcome back to the Detachment and the Legion.

Always good to see people return.

Welcome back, ?

Thanks for your responses! One of the posters asked if there was any other costumes I am thinking about and I plan on sticking with the ANH TK for a while. I have a Hasbro E-11 blaster that I painted and added some screws and others things to it so my next big purchase will be a better quality E-11. i also need to work on my armor some more. I have the complete electronics suite in my helmet but the tips of the outtakes for the fans stick into my checks. Thankfully, we have a good Garrison and squad so I should be getting some help.

Welcome back!

here are five Star Wars-themed dad jokes for you: Why did Anakin Skywalker cross the road? To get to the Dark Side. How do you unlock doors in the Star Wars universe? With a Jedi "key"-nobi. What did Yoda say when he saw himself in 4K? "HDMI clear, the picture is." Why did Kylo Ren go to school? To improve his Force-math skills. What's a Jedi's favorite toy? A yo-"droid".

For basic approval (the OP's question) grody rivets are allowable. Sadly. But like Paul said... If you're redoing an FX anyways... Why not go EIB -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, you got it spot on. From the neck down, it should take about $50 and a few hours of work. At least, that's how we designed it to be, so that there really was no excuse from any FX trooper from going EI. The helmet though has to be replaced in toto. Also, for many older kits it was normal to rivet the shoulder bridges to the chest/back. If you've done this, you need to drill out the rivets and replace the shoulder bridges.

The short list to replace (I think): Helmet Belt Holster Ab buttons And cut the kidney and butt plate to make two parts. Did I miss anything from the CRL? -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
