Redo it! It's always better to do it so you're happy even if it means more time and effort!

YES! That helps. Is that a pic you took?

That's kind of my thoughts about it...

I guess the kind most of the TKs had on Cloud City. I like the greeblies... if that's what most of them had, then great... just want it to be most known as the ESB blaster.

That's awesome John, thanks! But... it has the greeblies.

This is a good pic... thanks! I still need more though. ----------

Whoa... the scope is WAY back on those... is that right? http://www.propstore.com/content/collection/empire/blaster/img6.jpg

Screen used. (minus this pic... right?) ----------

------ The rest of the strapping is a little different on my build — that pic isn't my armor in other words, but it gives you a good picture of the size of the straps. I actually have 2 short straps connecting my left side, and the one long thin strap at the top of the right side, with another short one under it. Then 3 straps holding the butt plate to the kidney, and 2 holding the kidney to the back plate.

Yeah, I thought I had that bookmarked, but couldn't find it... hence this post. Let me know if you find, and I will do the same. In the meantime... anyone else?

Where are some good, high-res images of an ESB E-11 blaster?

Good.

I'm "Noel" btw...

Only the Shadow knows...

He's my friend... but I hid him from my wall. I also told him what I thought of him when I accepted his friend request... to which he replied, "Well, read my site and you might change your mind." To which I did not reply.

Yes he could... he just needs a neck seal that covers his face and he'd see through the frown. -------

Go to True Value or some other hardware store and look for camping snaps. They're cheaper than Jo-Ann's (in my experience).

And, as we always say, it's more about how you assemble the helmet than anything else that determines the size. My TE2 helmet has a "high brow" which makes the opening very tight. My TM helmet has a "normal-height" brow and is very easy to put on respectively. That's just one factor in assembly that can make a difference. I've seen FX buckets that look TINY on the inside... yet even my TE2 — the one that's tight to put on — has enough room in it for fans (if I wanted them) a mic and transmitter box for my wireless speaker set up.

Oh yeah!

Awesome looking kit! Congrats!! Now the stupid question... what is "TMC?!" How have I missed this?!?! I too like the dog... my TM kit "came with" a cat. -----------

But oh so wonderful!!!!

Yep. ------

Hey man... welcome, and congrats on the armor order! So glad you did research and didn't click that first button! To answer your questions... #1, someone else can answer that... #2, do you mean the "side rivets?" If so, they're actually brads if you want to look accurate.... and #3, foam, all the way. No hard hat liners for me. I like the comfort and simplicity of foam! Hope that helps, and can't wait to see the build threads!!

Really I only saw a few seconds... don't have TV at home and am watching "Gossip Girl" online... seriously! Will check the winners tomorrow.
