  2. Hearing inside your lid

    in Hard Armor (General Discussion)

    Posted

    I have one of those spyear things (it's a bit like a hearing aid) installed, the mic is glued in the left ear cap with a small hole drilled in one of the stripes so it can pick up the sound and I use a pair of in-ear headphones with it.

     

    I would post some pics but all my gear is packed for a troop in a few hours, when I get back I can post pics if you want.

    Welcome to the forum :)

     

    Thanks all. :) ...errr...whats TD and MEPD stand for ? :unsure:

     

    TD is a Sandtrooper (like how TK is a Stormtrooper, each character group has their own abbreviation) and MEPD stands for Mos Eisley Police Department which is the Sandtrooper detachment in the 501st Legion

     

    Edit: Looks like Scott was posting at the same time :)

  7. What keeps you from upgrading your FX?

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    Yes, that is what I have learned, there is "AFX" and "MFX", the MFX doesn't look too bad, but good luck getting it :unsure:

     

    Same here, I thought the FX was short for AFX.

     

    I was told to stay away from MFX but I think they recently upgraded it, can't remember where I read it so don't quote me on that ;)

  10. chin straps?

    I added a chin strap to my RT-Mod the other day, it helps keep the lenses in the right spot when I try to look down but really I added it because I like adding stuff to my helmet :D

     

    Here's one showing how I attached the straps (it's the same on the other side):

    --------------

     

    The strap is just two pieces of elastic, one longer than the other and I attached snaps on each end to join them. I tried a one piece strap but got stuck and couldn't get the helmet off :blink:

     

    I got the idea for mine from this post by Troopermaster... Link

    Nice to see another new trooper starting with an upgraded helmet. Looking good.

     

    Thanks :)

     

    The FX helmet just looked odd on me and an order for some RT-Mods was about to be placed... the timing was perfect :D

     

    Just took a photo of my completed armor:

    (it's a little blurry) Now I just have to wait for my TK number... *twiddles thumbs*

  21. Ab plate Cutting

    in Assembly, Mods, and Painting

    Posted

    I cut mine along the bottom of the ab plate, mainly because it was easier to do with the equipment that I had ;) but I did think that along the bottom might give you a bit more flexibility since it's not effected by the belt as much (I think)

     

    I also added snaps to the cod and ab plate so it could be removed completely which allows the cod to move up under the ab plate a bit so I can sit without much trouble :)

     

    I don't really think it's helped with bending over that much but it did make sitting less awkward

  24. Run Down List of the Armor

    in ANH (Stunt and Hero)

    Posted

    Hey many people tolled me that it would be perfect for the outfit?

     

    They might have thought you were talking about the 1:1 scale MR E-11, the scaled replica is 0.33 scale (which works out to be just under 7" long, the 1:1 scale is about 21" and costs quite a bit more than the scaled version ;) )

     

    I just checked the site you found that pic on and it is the small version
