Now that Disney is at the helm and has granted Anovos the license to build and distribute what they wish, as stated last year on the other thread, Disney doesn't like to share and they will get what they want. I don't agree with the philosophy but it's a fact. We have more movies coming down the pipe with new armor to gawk or complain about. I believe a better use of people's energy would to try and get involved and help steer that ship instead of sitting around screaming foul, and be left at the dock as a museum curator, unless that's your goal. These are exciting times we live in. The SW fervor has never been as big as it is now. New recruits are joining the legion in droves, new movies are releasing on a annual basis. Every time I turn around some asks me, are you 501st? I haven't been part of the legion a fraction compared to some and yet I feel like it's been a part of me my whole life. Good times

Hey Jesse can you post a action shot please. Thanks brother

No

I don't have any images to post but technically it's installed at the positive and negative solder points on the hearing PCB, similar to that of the Anker shown earlier. The setup is very similar but use different regulators.

All good points and ideas. I'm a firm believer in the quote "Putting your money where your mouth is". If people are going to spend an enormous amount of time speculating and badmouthing something they've never held in their own hands, it could all be put to rest with a simple investment. And if you are an armorer and it has the potential to prove your point and possibly increase revenue then you would think the investment would be worth it don't you? Just a thought

Some of the cabling is in the armor, some tucked up in the helmet yes

Well, I said crucify Anovos, not Vern, but whatever . What fathoms me is why hasn't anyone that believes it's a recast, purchased a set of Anovos and do your own comparison instead of speculating or railing on others for their opinion.

You have a good point here however, I didn't just base my opinion simply on Vern's pictures. I've held both sets of armor in my hands (side by side). I'll agree the lineage is very similar, but being recast? That's my opinion. I've never met an engineer that can simply look at an image of an object and duplicate it exactly or know every detail without first having it in their hands or some specifications. I doubt anyone here on the FISD was present when Anovos acquired whatever armor they used as their template, or there if they decided to personalized their version of it. One thing is for certain, since Anovos has come onto the scene there's been an all out assault by some to crucify them for any reason possible. That's also an opinion. If Vern decides to post side by side comparisons that's his prerogative, if he doesn't, don't chastise him for it.

You have to contact the vendors personally http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/11538-the-various-types-of-armor-and-where-to-find-them/

RS

Clear enough for me.

A few peeps swore up and down it was RS recast, you just help confirmed it wasn't.

TFA Tie Pilot?

As most of us suspected, despite the rhetoric from the I know everything crowd. Thanks for sbs comparison Vern

Congratulations Paul

Centered or offset is perfectly acceptable although offset is closer to canon.

Hey Jesse Sly or myself will be with you shortly.

It's on hold for the meantime.

Did a 4hr troop this weekend. Everything worked great. Love being able to simply and quickly connect and disconnect the harness. Much easier then the mini din cabling.
