Man, I wish I had your problem. I'va always had stuff be too long for me. LOL...

The look on his face is like "man! Thats an ugly helmet!" LOL!

Eric is totally THE MAN!!!!

Just beautiful! Gives me chills to look at them! Interesting to spot velcro on the bicep too.

It seems with all the best prop makers, unless, you see a thread saying "armor boxed & ready to go", expect to wait for a pretty good while. I know thats not very reassuring, but I'd rather wait for a long time & get some good armor, than get some not-so-good armor really fast.

I'd definitely keep that as a historical piece. Its cool for that reason alone. Probably not worth trying to make approvable. Do you think it would stand up to trooping? I'd think it would be kinda fragile, being so old.

OK...That does it! I really want one of these now!!!!!

I think the Sith armor yor are talking about might end up being approved by the Rebel Legion. I dunno. I'm sure it will end up being one or the other, if not both eventually.

He also makes screen accurate Biker Scout gloves, if anybody is looking for them. Really good guy.

Build armor, drink beer, repeat. LOL. Actually, what Brian said is more productive.

Happy Birthday!

I have mine set up like Hunterhwt said, leaving a small gap between the lens marerial and the eye opening. This usually lets moet of the hot air escape, so I stay fog-free.

Always a pleasure to see a ROTJ build. Post up some more pics.

These are the kind I use. I got mine from being in the military, but they are easy to come by & look about identical to what we saw on screen. -----------

Yeah, I would love to see more stuff available from ROTJ.

Being deployed right now, the only visible difference in service branches that I see is that we eat at different tables in the dining facility & have different colored PT gear. But really, if you want to learn about the differences in services & specific jobs, have a specific job or skill in mind (something you are interested in) before you visit a recruiter. Nothing against recruiters, but its their job is to fill positions where they need recruits, so thats their angle when you walk in their office. If they put everybody where they wanted to work, there would thousands of personnelists, pilots, and medics, and nobody left to guard gates, cook meals, or fix toilets, but I disgress. Just ask yourself "what would I not get sick of doing for x # of years that wouldn't make me hate the decision to join up? What job offers bonuses? Who deploys to where & for how long? Do I get to go to school? Could I raise a family & do this?". Also, don't discount the Army or Marines. The grass isn't always greener on one side of the fence or the other. Good luck in whichever one you choose. They're all winners.

It's always so interesting to hear info like this straight from the horse's mouth! Very cool!

And the show goes on...

I dig my Hasbro blaster. It's great at cons because its light and doesn't hurt people as bad as a resin one would if you accidentally bonk somebody in the head who doesn't get our limited vision. lol... Sucks about gun laws in some countries. I'm glad the authorities are fairly "pro-blaster" where I troop.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned by armor.

LOL. I want one of those....

Rubies love? Interesting...Go for it man!

I dig the white......but choose the one YOU like better And, yeah, like the others have said....some people out there are "shape-blind". They see black armor & think Darth Vader. lol...

They are still shipping. Shouldn't be too hard to find. Heck, I'm even seeing DH-17s ship again! Whoo-hoo!
