Hello.... i too am a larger person... and i went with a FX armor... it did take a bit of... imagination to get some things to fit... and i still have some mods to do to make sure it fits better... buying this armor has made me want to loose weight to make sure the armor fits better... but all in all ... it can be done... here are a couple pics of me.... good luck...
this was my first event...
i still have some work to do on it... mostly on the sides...
-
ok... i talked to my friend and he said he would not be able to buy anything until march... sorry dude... good luck on your sell...
-
Hey dude... i can feel your pain... you know we all here are pulling for you and would do what ever we can to help... and on the help side i know someone who is wanting armor... i will lead him your way... i think the price is pretty good myself....

Order 55- All Stormtoopers are required to start singing "I Cant Drive 55" by Sammy Hagar in thier TIE Fighters while zooming around the galaxy

welcome to the forum... this is a great place to find what ever you need... were in tx are you? we are always looking to bolster our numbers...

yeah, sitting is for wimps.....we, the empires finest only ever stand to face the enemy, never sit.
we might lean if we had a railing... LOL...
if you can get up and down stairs!!!! the first time i wore my armor i had to go down stairs to get my shoes... well our stairs are hard wood... and my socks were slippery... so... yes... i slipped and down the stairs i went... in my armor... but do damage done...
great looking armor... i did the same thing in my armor... i went trick or treating with my daughter... loads of fun... it wasnt hard for her to pick out her dad among all the other parents... too bad i got sick and had to get out of costume... oh well...

Also my ankles (wow I can't spell
) are to tight for my boots. the boots keep popping out of the shin pieces when I walk, causing the entire calve/shin to ride up and into the back of my knee (ouch) If I trim the bottom of the ankle I'll lose the flair shape bell. I could use a shim to widden the lowwer leg assembly, but the rest of the shin fits perfect.Have you figured anything out with this yet... this past weekend i had the same issues... my new boots has a huge mouth and, like you, my boot kept pushing out... my quick fix was duct tape... i held the boot top closed around my ankle and a buddy took thin strips of duct tape and... taped them... it was a quick fix... for a more permanat fix i plan on cutting the back edge and adding a strap of velcro to pull the sides together... i havent really looked at it too close yet to see if it would really work but it sounds good to me... this was one of those moments early in the morning when you wake up before your alarm goes off and you just lay there thinking of things... waiting for the alarm to go off...

Hey TK-9712! Count me in as an up and coming new member for Abilene!
Our next meeting is Nov 11th at Premiere Comics a 6pm.... see ya there...
-
I have a number to answer to this now... as you all know they give you many options to have for your TK... all of my choices had to do with my family... you know wife/kids birthdays.. year and date... wedding aniverseries... things as such... i guess out of all the choices i put in they picked 9712... 97 is the year my daughter was born and 12 is my sons birth date... so... i have both of my kids represented... pretty cool...

All set John. Thomas - gimme a ping when it shows you have a costume. Your GML should be able to straighten this out.
Woo Whooo... Thanks brother...

"We found out this weekend they are going to approve us as a fire team, which is actually the first step to becoming a squad! We're getting closer to the 12-15 members we have to have before we are officially a seperate squad! Our squad's future is looking bright! "
That is a quote from an email i just recieved... this is what we have been looking for... this is what it is all about... and every day we are getting closer and closer... it is so cool... and my avatar is the proposed patch... it goes with the same theme with the north and south tx patches... so cool... wish us luck... or better yet... move to abilene... and join our fire team...
-

Oh... welcome to the FISD... any questions you may have... this is the place to go... thats only if i cant help... lol... see ya around the board...

i used rivets on the right thigh ammo piece... and snaps on the knee piece... although i would definitely recommend rivets for the knee piece... every time i walk one side of the knee piece come off... the snaps are not strong enough... i tried using rivets first and i kinda screwed it up... i ended up with big holes in the plastic...so to fill the holes i used snaps... still a bad idea but it was all i had at the time... I'm thinking about trimming a bit off the bottom of it so it will pull out farther... as it is now it does hit on my thigh piece.. and that is what pops the snap... still tweakeing... good luck man... and take your time...

OMG!!! Dude... huh... well... im not so sure what can be done with that... i am a pretty large dude and i was told the FX would probably be the best for my size but its not that screen accurate... and the FX is mostly worn by most in the 501st... so i went with it... and i am glad...
EDITED: TO REMOVE ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BE NEGATIVE
I hope i didnt offend you in any way... i guess it was my ignorance in the ROTJ armor... i didnt know it was so "soft" looking if you undersatand what i mean... every peice is so smooth.... is it suppose to be that way? for a ROTJ that is...
-
i know this might be a bit of a dumb question... but did you sand the areas you are glueing... i dont want to insult you or any thing...... i use a plastic epoxy and it doesnt stick very well if i dont sand it...
-
holy cow guys... those look amazing... i can only hope mine will look half as good as one of these...
-
i looked into this and i thought it more a build kit than a repair kit... still good info...
-
wow... these are all great ideas... it looks like im gonna need a bigger shoe box
ok... well it started out as a shoe box... when i got home i found an old tool box i wasnt sure what to do with... now its my repair kit... lets see what did i have problems with...
1. shin glue snapped... velcro to the rescue
2. popped rivet on my belt.... duct tape
3. lenses fell out of bucket.... i found out that dropping the helmet on its top on concrete doesnt do it any good... hot glue
4. black voice thingie on the front of bucket.... see above... hot glue
5. ear peice fell off... see above... it was a horrible thing... hot glue
6. velcro came loose on back of belt... more duct tape...
and that was all on my frist troop... i guess i now know what i need to work on... with all that did happen it was well worth it...
thanks for all the input on the ... huh.. puts ins...
Congratulations Paul, on your eight thousandth post!
