The old FX & RT Mod kits were actually much, much easier to build. They came 100% pre-trimmed, no butt joins, no cover strips. Just glue, velcro, and go for the most part.
Will be sending this off to the LMO team for further input and the suggestion that the new statements Chris is working on can be added at the top of the CRL regarding materials and 3D printed armor.
I would much prefer it stated once, than in every single section of the CRL for each armor piece.
