Thats just starwars.com what do they know?

Thanks Eric

Thanks Kevin!

Thanks for the kind words Scott and for giving me the nod

That’s one of the best analogies of the pauldron chain of command that I have heard ..all the other colors are just made up by over active imaginations

Thanks to my buddy Adrian in Texas for pointing out another over sight of mine , I took off that silver tape on my detonator...Thanks Adrian

Yes star wars helmets.com have great screen caps and great pic's of original props... Here is one of my story's about noticable tube stripes to those who know...The last time I was at LFL doing a troop, there was one fellow wearing an FX helmet with the ussual black tube stripes that it comes with, and our contact and handler GL provided us with pointed out that the black tube stripes were indeed wrong which was for me would have been kind of embarrasing...good thing I had the correct Blue shade of tube stripes

Well thats about how mine were, I just cut it off, but thats just me

I saw a vader last holloween and went right up to the little guy and said what are your next orders sir! He got a real kick out of it But, I do have a voice box and that helped the realism alot

Yes, i need to see this done and interpreted because I'd like to know...the directions aren't extreemly clear to me either

Yeah, thanks mike good eye!

Your right Paul I completely over looked them and forgot to install them I guess I spent too much time on all the other details I forgot about one of the most obvious ones But I did just install the extra ones I had here are the pics...

Like the ones in the pic above Paul?

Thanks Mark, you were a great help with this project

Thanks Adrian, thanks for your feedback and support on this build brother

Ah, you mean with these?

Thanks Margaret

I didn't feel like paying $500.00+ dollors for the correct helmet plus I have seen originals thatr aren't squished like you are thinking of But lets really look at the difference between one of the originals and my helmet Original... Mine...

Thanks Paul, I couldn't have done it without your help

Thanks Alex! The only thing I don't like about this ROTJ armor is the solid 1 piece back plate, it really makes me look a little to box like

I would just attatch the two halves with elastic and treat it as if it was one piece...plus its alot more comfortable like that...if you can find wide white elastic that would probably be best...here is my back plate on my FX armor...

Looking good there trooper! the only advice I can give you on the armor would be that (if you haven't done it) you might want to separate your cod from your ab plate, and or put an elastic Velcro strap to hold your chest over you upper ad plate because it looks like you have a longer torso...I'm just saying this because that can be a future frustration with troops to come...I had this same problem every time I raised my arms my chest plate would get caught on the ab plate it just a bother that can easily be fixed

I also chose the ROTJ because it would be the hardest to show that it can be done

thanks Paul, when I first started this build all those month ago...my goal was to help future ROTJ's by example...There are so many people who do ANH, I thought it would be cool to have an Elite TK representing all the movies

Thanks Joey
