I'm looking around for an undersuit for my 4 year old. I found a shirt but nothing that would work for the bottoms. Shoes I'm not to worried about I'll just buy him a pair white tennis shoes. But does anyone have any ideas for the undersuit or know where I can get one?

Revisiting the paint job! A friend is helping me out by doing the weathering. Since I don't have the artistic skills and don't feel like ruining $1000. lol Here is the helmet pic he sent me: https://picasaweb.google.com/m/zoom?uname=101841473479732427661&aid=5886544970936398577&id=6057477445933199314&viewportWidth=320&viewportHeight=416 -

Anyone have this undersuit?
DarthBrute replied to DarthBrute's topic in Boots, Soft Parts, and other Accessories
I prefer the one piece. I'm just trying to find out if anyone has this particular suit and get their opinion. -
---------------- I'm looking at a large. I am 5'11" 190 lbs / 1.8 m 86 kg How does it fit and ride? How does it feel? Hot weather? Cold Weather? Good stretch? Stitching? Any other info about it I should know?

Well the build is complete (thanks to craygee for helping big time!). It just has to get painted and I picked up the paints for that: And of course in the process of taking it off, I had my fuse seam snap right off. Yay me. -
Did "Star Wars Rebels" just bring back the FX helmet?

Hmm. A cartoon that is not life like looking different from live action movie stormtroopers. And some of you are whining about it? All the movies are different too. The thing is gentlemen, keeping the spirit of the TK alive is more important. They look like stormies to me. And these TKs will introduce them to a whole new generation. Fans of all ages will now know what we are. Instead of just being robots or ninjas or something else entirely. No one but us can see the SUBTLE differences. Maybe someone will do an animated TK. Just like the animated clones. My point is, don't get your under armor in a bunch. Every movie was different. Each movie had a difference in the TK. Why get upset about a cartoon? Stop nerd raging and let's be happy the legacy of the TK will continue on. -
I know, I know. We have hundreds (if not thousands) of threads on helmet mic set ups and what not. But I am asking for an opinion on one more. So here it is: http://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle--Helmet-Headset-Microphone-Skiing/dp/B007MO6EAM/ref=sr_1_24?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1372597761&sr=1-24&keywords=microphone+headset+with+PTT What do you think of a set up like this?

As easy as any other ABS kit really. But I caught mine from the Imperial Commissary. Keep an eye out there you will see different types of kits go on sale there all the time. -

Got the boat trim all glued on. All that time with it taped helped keep it together. I used plastic weld and only did it on the inside to avoid any technical difficulties. -

Well I sanded off some of the problem areas and resprayed. My initial painting had bubbles and glops. This time it didn't end in a horrific disaster. Despite that it doesn't look perfect I am still happy with it. -

Just to kind of start getting back in the swing of things I did some work ala doopy doos. Now this is my hasbro blaster already painted. Did some sanding on important areas and used clear epoxy. Painting is next!
