TK8280 posted a topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Finally got the rest of the door trim in the mail today and thus my ROTJ AP armor is done I would like to thank all the members of FISD for your support and patience through this whole ordeal...It took me so long to do, because I wanted it to be 100% accurate no matter how uncomfortable if is haha...but before I start showing my pics I would like to thank the following people who have helped and supported me throughout this build, plus its nice to be recognized for helping... First off, I would like to thank The FISD itself and Paul for creating it, if this forum never existed I would not know as much as I do now about Star Wars white armor, and thus this build would never have happened Troopmaster for all his support, knowledge, and help with any questions I PM'ed him with I'd like to thank John for letting me pm him left and right questioning him on his original suit Ed TK4878 for his support TK1787 Terrell for his words of support on my ROTJ thread TK 8020 “Daetrin” Paul for his support and friendship TD/TK6025 “SethB6025” Seth for his input on my ROTJ build thread Firebladejedi for his reference photo’s, support, and belt advice TK2126 Joey for his support “bactareality” Adrian for his support on my ROTJ thread and for providing a couple really cool picks from the movie “Trooper Expert” Matt for his input and for giving his rendition of why the ab buttons were all upside down in ROTJ TK4300 Jay for his support on my ROTJ thread TK5193 “Boozel” Matt for his support on this build TK8786 “Gundamzeppelin” Chazz for giving me advice on cutting out my ROTJ belt TK4149 Scott M. for his support on my build Chef hawk “Chef” for his support TK3205 “Bigturk” Alain for his supportive feed back on my ROTJ build thread “Apollo” Lex for his support on this project TK4999Steve for his support and is probably one of the first people I really started to talk to on FISD when I joined Last October IC9789 Kat for her help with this build from start to finish TK2388 “Carbonitekid” Matt for his kind words about my build www.starwarshelmets.com for their awesome ROTJ Helmet and armor reference photo’s so now without further talking here are my pics -

Here is a pic of my FX (top) and my AP ab(bottom) I still need to rivet the belt to the ab plate, but the belt is all done now notice the longer box straps as seen on some of the original ROTJ kits Here is a pic of what my back looks like it does have that correct look to it More pics to come soon...Like I said, all I am waiting for is the darn door trim so I can finish my lower back plate its really frustrating -
I'm sorry to hear about that Adrian, but keep your head up though ...a new better oppurtunity will come your way soon

Yes you do have a good point Carlos about new members not knowing where to go to get the items, that’s why E-bay can be a really bad place because that is all alot of these people see for vendors of armor...I am glad that we have this community to help steer new people in the right direction, whether or not the FISD is ready to ax the modded Hasbro from the so called elite requirements or not. I am also sorry about taking such great offense to your previous post, I narrow mindedly jumped to conclusions without thinking, I should have took a moment to think about what you were really trying to say instead of me assuming it was some kind of verbal attack, so once again I am sorry, and my previous posts will be erased -

Will do Ed Back on topic now... This authentic blaster contact is reputable, and the blaster stands up to troops, I have had mine since may, and love it, It is not 100% resin, it is a combination of resin and PVC which makes it alot more durable than a straight up Resin prop replica -

Here is my contact for the authentic ANH ESB, and ROTJ blasters...he makes them all at an afordable price...I don't know who else has bought one from him, but I know that he made mine and Ed's for our elite armor projects http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...E:B:BCA:US:1123 -

TK8280 replied to giric thren's topic in Hard Armor (General Discussion)
I don't think you would have any better luck with any of the other armors out there, and your not that tall, so I don't think it will be that much of an issue -
Wow! I wish we could do that for California Great job guys!

Watch out for the cheaper body suits they can deteriorate faster than the name brand ones

Yes! we should do this now why wait any longer?

TK8280 replied to probie_trooper's topic in Hard Armor (General Discussion)
Pleas step away from the FX helmet idea O.S.C.S. has a one piece ANHv2 helmet that looks really good, the MR would be way to expensive when you could buy the more real helmet made out of the same material as the originals for less money -
