SuperTrooper

I believe ESB suits were reconditioned ANH suits. Amazing what new hand plates, and a paint job can do.

Paul, I can sympathize. My wife doesn't care about it, hates to hear me talk about it, but gets mad when I don't tell her about it because I'm "not being completely honest". The catch 22 of wives.

Actually thats fairly normal if your not a tall guy. I know several troopers who can't turn their head or look down very well because of the proportions of the FX helmet. An accurate helmet will let you turn your head from side to side with ease, and looking down is easier but can still be challenging.

Thats amazing. I bookmarked it

Like I posted in the tech center, you have to use this link if your using Netscape or Firefox: http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=16&hl=

A couple of days ago I had to update my bookmark to a different FISD page because all I was getting was a blank white screen. Now for some reason the http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=16 link that is posted all over the place doesn't work in Firefox now (it does in Internet Explorer). Now I have to use http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=16&hl= to see that page in Firefox. Anyone else having problems?

Save the $20 bucks. They will get blemishes from trooping in them, especially where your calf armor sit on the boot.

I just squeeze and flex the helmet a little bit, and groan through the pain on my ears. Coming off is worse than putting it on. I wouldn't want to trim it cause I have a fairly long neck.

AP pictures are on their way.

Merry Christmas, and here's to troopin in the new year.

Sweet picture, thanks for sharing.

I use a Christmas tree storage bin. Think big rubbermaid with wheels and they will be half price in a few days .

If they are allowed hopefully they will fall under TX designations. I just cant imagine anything other than clean armor for TKs.

Ok. it seems the bug is back. Is it just me or is everyone else logging in all the time again.

Sounds good to me. I love BF 1 & 2 and would love to play online.

Yes they will remove your profile picture on the 501st website. Don't forget many garrison websites have member pictures and profiles also, so check your garrison's website as well. Good luck dealing the scum in your neck of the woods.

Since parts are popping it's not a fusing glue which means it's 100% removable. The downside is the remedy will kill the glue on the entire helmet. Stick the helmet in the freezer overnight. You'll be able to take the helmet apart with ease in the morning, assuming it's not mostly apart already.

I believe they are, but some sellers market them as Stormtrooper boots.

What kind of glue was used?

Yes you can still get elite status if you have shims. Having properly fitting armor is just as important as accurate details.

I'd recommend OOPS. I'll remove paint with ease, and won't hurt the abs. It's also what I use to clean my armor after events. Wal-mart used to carry it but the ones by me quit carrying it recently, but Lowes and Home Depot carry it. Whatever you use make sure it is acetone free.

Considering they cost about as much as an accurate stormtrooper costume, I doubt anyone here has one. But you never know.

You probably aren't going to get it off. It melts the surrounding abs and fuses the abs plastic and the cement together. But when you tried to sanding you only used 320 grit. Thats considered fine for wood, but is very course for plastic. Look in the automotive section of most department stored and get a variety of auto sandpapers. Try sanding a scrap piece with 400 then 800, then 1500 and polish it with novus. You shouldn't see the scratches then. If you do use some 2000 grit sandpaper and re-polish.

What kind of cement were you using. Almost all of them can be removed fairly easily.

I'm pretty sure I know a guy that has it done. He doesn't do forums so he probably didn't know there is a demand. I'll call him tonight and get the details.
