TK8280

Thanks Keita!

do you mean this helmet? ------------

yes thats a better way of putting it Tony the ESB "Look" I like it

yeah, this is really interesting stuff, keep the informational posts comin

what about using a "Sonic Ear" device? I see the comercials all the time and wonder

but Paul, they did take the belts off of TK's, so I would believe that its what GL inteneded for them to look like...you know they threw those holsters on the stunt/background TK's belts with a few rivets but I'm to think that that was a case of building time and screen time just my .02 cents

Here is a visual PIC of the FX next to an ESB trooper...

Nice John, i may have to pick up a pair of those too

Welcome to the FISD Mike! I'd look into the RT-Mod first before going the FX route...other than that I have seen guys much bgger than you fit into TE armor

Thanks everyone, you all have definately made my B-Day that much sweeter...check out what my girl got me

That sucks Craig! There has to be a way where you set your profile up as "Classified"

cool thanks brother, I need it for my clone armor

This build is great, Where is the best place to get the spot putty glaze? I need some

I have no clue, I haven't done it yet, but I'm sure they will last as long as you take good care of them...If I'm not mistaken, I think Daetrin has a pair of re-worked TK boots

yeah, if you want some spot on TK boots made from leather they are going to be priced at least 150.00 +, and I've herd quotes of $250.00 before even if you buy some good quality brown leather boots and re-work them, it will cost you at least $100.00 for the price of the boots and the cost of white dye and polish...not to mention the time it will take you to do them up right ...I'd like to get a pair of these and re-work them...check them out... http://shop.valleycountry.com.au/catalogue...y42/product1021

you can always paint it silver and then put tooth paste on the areas that you want to show weathering, wait for the paint to dry and then scrub those area's off with soap and water

Thanks everyone! I don't know what to say, how un-expected, ussually people don't notice when its someones birthday , thanks again everyone for making my B-Day that much better

wow, that brought a smile to my face

not at all, in the end you have to do what works right for you, the way I did mine was just my own solution to the FX thighs , I'm sure your idea will work out just fine as long as you don't over heat the plastic

Great! glad to help out Graham

Justin's technigue is also very effective, but I was too lazy to do it myself

well, the first thing I did was put a ample amount of velcro on the back of the thigh for measuring purposes..then I squeezed them onto the bottom of my thigh, and then mrked it in the back both at the botom and the top of the thigh...I then slid the thighs off and took the velcro off and drew a line from the bottom mark to the top mark, then I glues them together with ABS glue, here is a pic of my thighs, as you can see they do not have the square FX look anymore, I think that it is crucial to fix the thighs on the FX in order for it to look at least better

I took about 1" off the bottom of my FX bells a while back, I didn't try to re-shape them with a heat gun, I just went ahead and baught myself new armor

you should get ahold of troopmaster Graham, he's in your neck of the woods and his AB button plate is seperate

I know, I was joking
