  4. Should you FORCE your spouse into armor?

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    I am trying to get my wife to dress up, but she wants a character that does not have a helmet, mask or wig. The closest I got, was to get her to dress as Princess Leia for Halloween with the white dress, hair buns and a blaster. So she wants me to research that line of costumes. Not many Empire characters withour a helmet.

  10. Question on Stormtroopers in the movie

    in ROTJ Stormtrooper

    Posted

    I built a ROTJ version, but I am still learning about the variations of Stormtroopers. In the movie ROTJ was there a large variety of configurations? At the end when the rebels take out the star destroyer, it crashes into the death star. The next cut scene shows Stormtroopers running down a hallway. The first guy has a holster, but it is on the left and not the right. The second one has the AB buttons in the non ROTJ format.

    Just curious.

  14. Trading Card Pouch\Holder?

    in Boots, Soft Parts, and other Accessories

    Posted

    I enjoy the looks I get when I hand out my trading cards to the kids. When my wife is squiring she usually takes care of holding the cards for me. Some events she cannot make it and I do not what to overwhelm the other squires taking pictures and helping out other people. I was thinking of getting a small clip on pouch in white or black that I can put on my belt. However, I have not been able to find any online during my lunch break. Does anyone have any leads on one? Later tonight I will look some more and will be putting on the up half of my TK to see if I can hide something behind the armor that is in place I can easily reach for.

     

    Thanks,

  15. Disinfecting Armor

    in Hard Armor (General Discussion)

    Posted

    With the summer now here I am noticing a lot of mositure build up on the inside of the armor. I already use the Novus polish for the outside of the armor. For cleaning the inside can you use clorox wipes, lysol, fabreeze, filterd water or any other product to clean the inside of the armor with out damaging it?

     

    Thanks,

  19. Did not head the warnings and SDS assembled does not fit - Need options

    in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance

    Posted

    I bought the RT-MOD armor and here are my dimensions

    Calves - 17 - No cutting and has a little wiggle room when fully velcroed

    Thighs - 24 1\2 - I had to cut 1\2 to an inch off to get a better fit

    Biceps - 15

    Forearms - 13 - No cutting and I use velcro to close them

     

    Here is what RT-MOD originally sent me when I inquired, but this is from Oct 2011 so he may have changed things.

    Suit comes with fully assembled helmet - ready to wear.

    -Made from .090 ABS

    -All plastic components are cut, trimmed and ready for assembly.

    -The suit will fit an individual up to 6"3", 220lbs depending on weight distribution.

    -Key measurements are as follows: (....shims would be required beyond these.)

     

    -Calves - 17"

    -Thighs - 26"

    -Waist - 40"

    -Forearm - 13.5"

    -Bicep - 16"

    -Helmet – 24â€

    -Remaining components are not size critical

    Unless they can make the armor pieces bigger you may have to shim them. I am going to have to do more deadlifts and squats if I am ever to catch up with your thighs :D
