I've got ATA and it rocks. I know a lot of people are really happy with their set, and I can't recommend it enough!
edit: also... the ATA bucket comes with everything you need except the decals! (Includes screws, mic tips, washers, etc!)
It's not even hot in Washington but I can't imagine trooping without a fan... The kits on here are a bit spendy but probably worth it, or you can look into making one yourself for quite a bit less. If you PM LadyInWhite she can probably get some squirrel fans for you along with whatever else you need.
This is the only thing I could find
BUT that could just be a drip from the house paint or whatever they used over the khaki ABS. I really don't know much about the production of armor
It really has a LOT of info, which is really awesome. I also like how active it is here. I can check two or three times a day and there is always new content!
Build looks good but.... Wet Okole?! I may be a haole but I know what that means!
Hahah! If I ever move back to Hawaii I'm going to have to get in touch with you guys (and gals!)
How bad is it? Post some pictures and maybe some troopers can help! Terrell is usually pretty busy so it might take a 48-72 hours to get back to you and even then who knows if he is doing a small parts run right now
Have you tried your local garrison boards? Maybe somebody has an extra or an old one that you can borrow for awhile?
Really up to you but I am not a huge fan of the sort of "car door trim" look around the body of the armor. To each their own, though!
Edit: DOH! I read that wrong
Righteous! Thank you
Like I said.. I think with the butt pillow that I couldn't find for these photos, the tail look won't be there. Thanks again for the tips, everyone!
