  1. Next the drop boxes . Schoolboy error here , as I'd let the elastic loop holding them onto the belt slip inside the popper attaching the belt to the stomach . Taking the belt off and putting the elastic loop in the correct place brought the boxes in line with the edge of the belt . Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. Ok, on to the upgrade list . First those darn teeth .... A craft nice slice and a screwdriver tip brought the edge paint off better than I could wish for . A little touch up and hopefully it's ok . I'll post a final pic when the paint is dry . Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Here's the photo to prove I have no return edges . Hopefully this completes the required photo list Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. Thanks guys . The dressing issues I'll look at tonite , I'll lengthen the straps that hold up my thighs a little bit , and tighten up the elastic loops holding my butt plate up . Hopefully this will help the alignment . I'll do it and post a photo . The biceps aren't attached to the shoulder bell, so the uneven biceps in one of the shots was a dressing issue that I am aware of and will address . The teeth I'll sort also , no big deal . Photos when done . The TD is an issue . Of course I can paint my screws better, and move the brackets out a bit ...but if I drill the lower hole to be nearer the end of the strap, I'm left with a vacant un-screen accurate empty hole . My brackets are first issue RS from years ago ( as is the whole suit) and I know they are using screen accurate alloy brackets these days . I may have to shoot over there and buy the later brackets .

  5. I've missed photos to show I've got no returns on my arms . I'll sort it next .
  6. Forgot the internal strapping photo . Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  7. A few I forgot to add. I think that covers it ..phew ! Let me know if I've missed anything .cheers ! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  8. Helmet . In the photos of me wearing it, the brow rubber had dropped a bit making the brow look lower than it actually is . Sorry. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. Tk I.d. 42057 Rob Taylor . United Kingdom garrison . Height 5ft10 ins weight 78 kilos . Armour RS props Helmet RS props Blaster RS props Boots I.B. Aplication for E.I.B.
  10. The mandalorien tk suit is estimated to go for eight to ten grand ... unbelievable . RS props will sell you a brand new ,exactly the same , for one and a half grand allin , built to fit you . The guy selling it has apparently already ordered a replacement from RS ...lol... good on him if he gets that for it ! Can't blame a guy for trying .
  11. This armour , which is a bad recast of modified fx armour , is better suited to r.o.t.j. Armour , as that's what it is very loosely based on .
  12. This book is an absolute Must Buy for anyone even vaguely interested in stormtroopers. I can't reccomend it highly enough .
  13. Sell it on eBay and buy armour from a reputable vendor . It's just not worth the hassle .
  14. If you are interested in screen accuracy, forget hips. RS Propmasters in the uk have just announced ( July 2020) a run of hdpe helmets , moulded from their original stunt helmet . For screen accuracy there is simply nothing to compare , it's as close as possible .
  15. I recently trooped ( last year 2019) the ESB movie in concert event here in the uk . As I have an esb helmet in my collection , I decided to convert my new hope armour into esb just for this event . it was fairly simple , I just picked up,some esb gloves and hand guards from RS Propmasters , made some holster straps from scrap leather , and wore my black toothed esb helmet . A very simple conversion that easily converted back to a.n.h. Really it's just the helmet paint scheme that is obviously different . By all means go esb ....dare to be different !!!! Lol .
  16. Welcome along Rich, nice helmet . Have you seen the YouTube video ?
  17. Adam, as you summised, , both sets of ears are identical, one left and one right in each set .
  18. Paul has dragged up some ancient grudge to " justify" recasting ??? I am totally staggered . This is no justification at all .
  19. Trying to stay on topic, I admire and respect the way Daetrin has replied to this thread , and find great difficulty understanding the attitude of the U.K.G. SSskunky 's posting above pretty much sums up the situation .
