That is certainly an interesting looking helmet. Looks like he was standing guard and Wile e coyote dropped an anvil on his head.

Awesome suit and pics. Just wondering. Do you talk normally or go around saying "Uhhhh, Wurghh,,muhhhh" and other such zombie esq noises?

It's a shame you can't reply with "Aren't you too ugly to be a human?" But also we have to behave ourselves in the garrison.

Nice build. Also nice guitar collection, but I notice a serious lack of BC rich warbeast guitars

Dude. Just use some tape. Honestly. I've no return edge on my armour either and mine would ride up like yours if I hadn't put tape on the inside. But at the end of the day you can do whatever you like.

I'm in the UK and I'd love to incorporate a troop into a US holiday.

Hmm. Do you have any elastic holding the butt plate to your back plate? Also, you could put some ductape on the inside seam and that'll hold it in better.

I'm not a member of the RPF so I can't even view the armour.

But they'd be green or black. I wear my glasses under my lid.

I can't sit down at all in mine. I can see what's causing the problem. It's the front of the thigh sticking into my cod. I might take a little bit off but I don't really know if I'll bother. I can sorta sit down if I have LOADS of leg room.

I have a pair of dyed jodhpurs (Or however you spell them). I can post pics if you like.

I use foam in mine. I did have a hardhat liner, but it began to annoy me. Foam is comfy, just make sure you're not irritated by it.

At the end of the day you get what you pay for. ATA is 'cheap' but not cheap and nasty cheap. It is allot of fun building and painting your own lid. As for the lineage of the helmet. I'm not really sure. But I'm no expert.

Can't seem to log in over at the 501st website. Resent password but still no joy. How strange :S

A stunning suit you have there. Can't see there being any issues.

Well, I sent a newbie in the UKG my spare hand-guards because he lost his when we had an armour party. Not much, I know, but hopefully I can do more over the years - unless I lose my 501st status because I haven't been able to troop yet.

Looking really nice. I can sympathize with the thigh problem as I'm having some probems with mine too. There isn't really anything I could add that you haven't mentioned already. I honestly don't think there's much you need to do to your armour.

If you want to bend your armour then use a hairdryer. I had to bend mine to fit it around my waist and that's what was used. Use an up down motion (Or side to side or even circular) to heat it up. Just make sure you keep it moving so you don't get any hot-spots and the plastic can bubble. Then just bend it slowly. Once it's in position, hold it there untill it cools enough to set.

The friends one I went to was cool. I went as a TK and now I know that I need to make mods and cuts to my armour. I can't post pics at the moment as my laptop is almost dead. Once I get something sorted I'll update with some pics.

Hmm. Not sure if this is alright, but what I have is a piece of elastic on a snap going from the shoulder to the bicep. You can't see it as it's black and behind my arm.

Looks good, but just MY personal preference; I'd move the thighs up your leg a few inches.

Hmm. Well before you completely panic and rush out and buy another. Try it on with your armour. It might not look that bad. It may look rather loose in the pictures, but remember you're going to have most of your limbs and body covered in plastic.

It all depends what you're after. If it's just simple amplification, then something like that will do however if you want the whole static burst and voice altering and amplification, then you 'need' to get a RomFX or something similar. But for a cheap device then you can't go far wrong with the voice changer.

Shoulder bridge should go over the front of the chest. The ammo strip that needs to be rivited. It looks ok, but I'm not 100% sure, so I'd wait untill some of the more experienced fellas here can advise you as well.

Dan Aykroyd+Vodka+Cool looking bottle = more win than can be added together using simple mathmatics.
