LOL! Pat you crack me up!!!

Exactly! Thank you for the photos (from all sides).

Love the scorch marks. Sweet!

You can also get abdominal plate decals from Mike. http://members.cox.net/appstronaut/tk4510_decals.html Highly reputable.

Pablo, Sei grande! Grazie mille! An excellent thread indeed. Thanks for sharing folks!

Congratulations Fearless Leader!

From one of the funniest sitcoms ever! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpmLrz_lSuE :-)

BTW, don't forget to protect your hands. I'm using Nomex flight gloves when I make a cut with a utility knife (no need when using scissors).

Schöne! Any pictures to show us your progress?

Cameron, Before embarking on all that work and expenditure (getting another helmet) ask yourself what is your goal with your TK armor? If it is to become a member of the 501st and troop then you do not need to make all the modifications on your helmet. I was told by 501st Liaison Officer that the eFX helmet is accepted. If however you want to go EIB, screen original, etc..., then some changes are required (I believe). I myself will change the lenses and add the screws on my eFX bucket. I may attempt to fill in the seam but will have to experiment with an acetone and abs mix. Check out : ---------- for abs paste. Cheers!

I like what the seller says: "Looks pretty dark good from a few feet away, if you get up close you can see some imperfections" So far for 2011, the understatement of the year. BTW, nice try Pat.

At your service Paul. If the amounts are large enough I can ask colleagues in JediSlayer's neck of the woods to look into the matter. At the very least I can try to direct those who have been defrauded to the right person(s).

Pat, Good idea. I would chip in a couple of bucks. (damn those rebel scum)

I'm in law enforcement (federal level) here in Canada and have offered to help. I agree with you, fraud is fraud!

Thanks for the 'heads up'!

A picture is worth a thousand words. Good idea!

Excellent work guys! Good to see that people still care.

Beauty! BTW, brilliant idea to use the fridge for glue removal. Never would have thought of that. Cheers!

Phew! I understand your frustration. Had something similar happen with something I bought on Ebay. I hope this gets resolved amicably. Let's see the power of this forum. Keep us posted.

Brilliant! Thank you!

Well, to paraphrase Darth Vader in the Bespin dinner scene from Robot Chicken Star Wars II: "Hey, let it go..." I like my new FX helmet. BTW, nice posters.

:headphone: !!

LOL! Your armor looks better than the one in the photo with Leia and the 3 troopers. Outstanding!

Beautiful! I initially wanted to go Tie pilot (actually still do) but decided to try TK first. Really nice work! Keep us posted. Cheers!

Good point. I'll have to do some testing.
