Hey German. Well contact Walt at WTF. He is selling the Ginov2. Either PM him here on the boards or contact him on Facebook.

Well hey Vard and welcome. I would say that at this point most armors are relatively the same as far as difficulty in regards to assembling them. As far as your height and weight I would consider looking into AM2.0. It is geared more towards the larger trooper. But it is also hard to go off of just weight. MTK and AP have made numerous adjustments to their armors and can fit a trooper up to a 38 inch waist without shimming. So I would recommend looking into those three armors. Have fun and keep doing your research.

Trying To Make A Choice...
starsaber25 replied to Hellblazer's topic in Hard Armor (General Discussion)
So Kev yeah I'm not sure what it means. I only know that I get emails from Anovos and the last one I received about TK armor there was a bubble on it that said only 50 left. I certainly don't have any inner knowledge of Anovos but I can only assume that they will put the TK molds away and try and fulfill these other costumes that they have promised. Maybe there is someone else that has better knowledge on this. Anyway Chad just reach out to ATA and ask some questions. I'm sure he will find a way to accommodate you. You are probably one of the few customers of his that have time on your side. -

Hi Chad. Well you have an interesting question on your hands. You are probably going to get a wide array of answers. Like Tolo mentioned there is no information on how well an Anovos set will hold up. ATA has a proven track record. I believe ATA is cheaper at this point. However ATA also had a long waiting period. Having said that I just saw something that Anovos said they are selling their last kits and have about 50 left and they don't have plans for another run. I mean they have to start focusing on fulfilling their other products at some point right? Both sets of armor have been assembled to absolute profection. I voted for ATA because I feel based on Anovos' track record at this point that once they sell out they probably won't provide anymore kits for a LONG time. Just my 2 cents. -
TK-71177 Requesting ANH Stunt EIB Status [MTK] [561]
starsaber25 replied to Jaren's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Awesome job Jaren! Congrats and welcome to EIB! Hope to see your centurion thread soon! -
You all have very interesting points of view. You guys do make me laugh. Even after it's said that I will not tell them to not watch the prequels some of you even say tell them not to watch them. So I'm 35 and I had a really interesting order of watching them growing up. I was about 7 years old. I first saw ROTJ. When I saw Darth Vader come down the ramp of the shuttle I had all kinds of emotions. I was scared, amazed, panicked, thought it was friggin AWESOME! I knew right away he was going to be a bad an impolite person! I was hooked right then! So then I ended up seeing ESB and then ANH. Talk about backwards! After seeing them I bounced back and forth between ANH and ROTJ growing up. Now I absolutely love ESB.<br><br> I saw the prequels at midnight showings of course. I have to admit. I really don't mind ROTS. I don't typically watch EP I or AOTC. But I still think they should not be skipped. Thanks for responding guys. I look forward to seeing more responses.

Ok so I know this has been debated before but I am going to put it out there again. So my good friend who has never watched Star Wars mind you, wants to borrow my movies and watch them with his 7 year old son. So what is the order that I tell him to watch them in??? My gut tells me to have him watch Episodes IV-VII and then watched Episodes I-III. I feel that would be the best way for someone new to this world to watch them now. I feel like if you watched them from I-VII then you will not be hit by the surprises that happened in the original trilogy. So I guess the options are IV-VII then I-III, I-VII, or IV-VI, I-III, and then VII like the theatrical release. So I guess what way would you tell someone to watch them and then give the reason why. And no I'm not going to tell him to not watch the prequels at all because I'm sure there will be someone who says it. Let the debate begin!!! Thanks for participating.

TK-50216 Requesting ANH_Stunt EIB Status (SDS)[560]
starsaber25 replied to Gory's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Hey Gregory. You have done a nice job on your SDS armor. Good luck! -
Well good morning Sean. Well there are many options for you to choose from and it can come down to your budget. Also another factor would be what armor are you matching it with. There can be differences in the color. But you have the high end priced helmets like RS and Troopermaster. And you have lower end to mid range pricing like ATA, AP, MTK, AM2, WTF, T/MC. They are all unique in their own way. Look around at some build threads and you may see one that you like. A good way to start is to narrow your choices down to a few and then contact the vendors. Most have their helmets ready to send out so there isn't much of a wait.

I had my MTK bucket sitting in the box since I built the armor and finally decided to pull it out a few months ago and decided to make it an ESB helmet. After that I decided why not go the whole way and complete the ESB style. So it was approved by my GML and this is now my second costume. So I put my troopermaster ANH helmet on the shelf for a minute, got a second belt/holster, and the new handplates. Why not right? Its funny how I see more battle wear this time around compared to my first EIB thread. Guys no rush on getting to this approval thread. I know you are busy so whenever you get a chance. The guys getting their first approval is more of a stressful and joyous time so take care of them and any other new comers. Thanks for looking!

Hey Sean you need to leave them open in the rear to get them on. Either method will work for centurion. Take a look at www.trooperbay.com and look at his video on putting together shins. That will give you a great idea on how to go about it.
