  1. I've decided on an ATA kit and would like to get the decals or templates needed for the helmet since it doesn't come with either. Which set on Trooperbay should I go with? Also, should I upgrade the Hovi-Mic tips? Or are the ones supplied just as good as the upgrades?
  2. I think the decision is made then. I'm gonna go ATA. This way I'll be able to afford the extras in the round 1 budget!
  3. Thanks guys! I guess it's a no brainer then. ATA all the way! Now I'll be able to get all of the supplies and accessories I'll need because now it'll fall within the round 1 budget! Sweet!!
  4. What is the difference in quality between the ATA kit with helmet and the AP kit with helmet? Other than price. It looks as though those are boiling down to my final options for my body type. Obviously the AP kit costs a lot more but where are the differences?
  5. The ATA kit would be cheaper, but what's the difference in quality between the AP kit and the ATA kit?
  6. I'm now leaning much more toward the untrimmed AP kit from Mark........
  7. Thanks Vern! I appreciate the help! I have a 33-34 waist, will that make a difference?
  8. Hi all! I thought I had this all figured out! I was set to get a AM kit then after reading a bunch realized AM is more for the bigger troops. The first plan was for a AP helmet with a "lite" AM kit. It was the most affordable option for me for what seems like 2nd tier armor (correct me if I'm wrong). Then I was going to just go with the "full" AM kit with helmet to save a bit more money but then realized the size issues. Now, instead of going back to the first AM armor/AP helmet idea, I'm considering switching altogether to an untrimmed AP kit with helmet. The cost difference between the AM armor/AP helmet combo and just going for the AP kit instead isn't much, so what do you guys suggest? I don't think I want a ABS ATA kit, although I might be swayed. I really want quality but I'm not in the market for the top level stuff just yet. I'm more worried about Legion admittance than absolute ANH stunt accuracy. (although that's the style I'm going for, no ESB/ROTJ for me, I'm old-school!) My measurements are: 5'9" 190 lbs 42" chest 13" bicep 21" thigh 17" calf Any help in finding the right armor for my size is GREATLY appreciated...
  9. I'm thinking about going with the "Lite" ver. ATA kit with a ready to wear AP helmet. Thoughts please. I'd like to get as close to a ANH accuracy as possible. Thanks!
