that sounds like some pretty good times... i've been kicked out and banned from places before too

so... I take it that your doing an ANH helmet...

lookin good Ed!

cool, I can't wait to see those

Yup!

yeah, there's alot of great people on this forum lookin good TK MD!

yeah, then I use tin snips for the trimming process...I used to use a hack saw blade

If my memory suits me right I believe that the hero helmets had the bubble lenses for the up close shots, and the stunt helmets had flat lenses

I believe it to be a "hero style" bucket because of the brow placement but the number of teeth on the frown is that of a "stunt" but I could be wrong, I'm not a helmet expert like other prop builders on this forum

Thants Awesome Scott! I like your shirt too with the Red Imperial Cog where did you get that shirt?

Yeah, its getting pretty bad...I'm not even sure if I'm happy with my AP helmet anymore ...I think I need help...I'm WAY too detail oriented for my own good

The Obsession Continues... Some items that I will add to my ROTJ Armor besides the ROTJ base standards 1* A more defined cod piece...it should be angular like a "V" not rounded off like the FX cod 2* No borders on the belt plate...the belt should be clean cut top and bottom 3* No button on the center of the Belt plate such as the feature seen on FX suits this is what I have found, and there may be more details to come... * Holster details o holster is rivited to the right side of belt..DONE! o two rivets are used insted of the ANH 4..DONE! o rivets should be punhced just below the center of the belt..DONE! o Holster hangs low 6 - 7 inches from the belt..DONE! * Armor Details o Snowtrooper hand plates instead of the angular ANH ones..DONE! o All black ab plate buttons..DONE! o Molded lip around the cod and chest..DONE! o Ab plate details (button area) needs to be upside down compared to ANH standards..DONE! o Single back/butt piece, not split like ANH o Shoulder bells are rounded at the corners..DONE! o No shoulder bell straps across the biceps..DONE! o Belt should be 2.5" wide..DONE! * Helmet Details o No FX helmet..DONE! o Slate blue traps/tears instead of ANH grey..DONE! o Black frown instead of grey, and the paint should overlap the "lips"..DONE! o Lenses must be flat green or bubble green..DONE! o Brow trim should be low on helmet..DONE! o Traps/tears must be decals, no hand-painting..DONE! o Four teeth each side..DONE! o No screws on ears o Ends of frown are squared off, not tapered to points..DONE! * Blaster Details ROTJ prop replica o No ammo counter o No Hasbro o Two greeblies on the left rear area.

ah...i remember my first suit of armor REMEMBER to take your time

yeah...i'm thinkin the same thing

i like both

thats awesome! great pics!

Yup!!!

It doesnt mean that they are actually dead...I believe the armor absorbs the shock of the blast rendering it non-lethal, but it does cause the body to pass out from the initial blast

this is another cool topic i wanna see keep goin...

OK all you new people lets keep this topic alive who's next?

Now thats an ANH Blaster!

That sure is a fine lookin holster you got there

nice detail!

yup! thats just the kind of guy i am never a dull moment

Yes! this site is an EXTREEMLY valuable tool, and it is a shame that there are so few of us who actually financially "support" it...I wouldnt like to see this finacial burden fall onto the shoulders of a hand full of us especially when there are so many registered users
