Greetings all!
Let me begin by saying thank goodness I found this site in my research, its been a great resource! Long story short, I am researching Trooper armor for myself and two friends, and I wanted to make sure I had some things correct.
FX Armor - Most common, and generally cheapest suits. Helmets usually too large.
AP Armor - Copy of originals? More expensive, harder to find, and not suited for "larger" people
RT Mod - More accurate then FX
TE/TE2 - Stands for trooperexpert, casts possibly made from originals, hard to find?
TM - Troopermaster from this forum! Excellent accuracy, but located in UK (cost barrier for US citizens)
Assuming this is correct, I wanted to confirm some other impressions I have gotten thus far. First, that AP and other super screen accurate versions are not well suited to heavier/taller folks. I am 5ft 11 and 185lbs while my friend Adam is 6ft 1 at 215 or so. From my understanding, we would want to stick to FX for the armor side of things, and then something more accurate for the helmet.
Second is simply a question. I wear glasses, as well as Adam; any fellow four-eyes out there run into issues with the smaller, more accurate helmets while sporting your glasses underneath?
Thank you for your time, whoever elects to respond =)
