yeah good points...I think I'll probably just end up buying an accurate one...maybe just go with painting the black on mine for the premier if I don't get one prior...

KB Props is currently making TLJ buckets?

so as a general consensus...it'd be some work to mod the current Anovos TFA helmet to be a TLJ...

hey Jafo, oh I know it's more than just the teeth...I know it's narrower as well...gmrhodes13 suggested using bondo if I wanna go all the way...not sure if I wanna break things apart and do that though lol

well since I have Jim's kit...as does the CRL model, Kit...he just used a black spray paint cap which he trimmed slightly...told me it fits snug as a bug on the TD w/out glue or Velcro!

ah didn't think about bondo...yeah I know it's more than the teeth...I'm not sure if I want to mess w/the mold and then use bondo...might just do this for the premier and order Jim's for accuracy...

Question...I'm currently getting ready to start making mods to my Jimmi FOTK for the Executioner. I have a spare Anovos TFA bucket...I know the design is different now in TLJ. After reading the Executioner CRL, my question is this...if you mod the TFA frown w/the teeth...there isn't really anything you could do regarding how narrow the new design is in the face...after speaking w/my GML he suggested asking the community here...my thoughts on how to do the teeth would be cut out abs inserts etc...my other option is to just paint my spare Anovos bucket w/the black stripe just for the premier and then order Jim's TLJ bucket...I could have ordered the Anovos Executioner...but ya know...wanted to actually receive it....before I die thanks for any suggestions!

so i'm almost at the point where I'd install the LEDs...my kit didn't come w/any so I'd have to order...do you have the model number of what was given to you by chance? Also debating if i want to do the wiring, might need a buddy to help me...but at this point i have everything either primed or painted...finally got all slats cut/sized right...may need to cut some of the plexiglass strips...but pretty close to the end now!

so I finally got my baton/shield yesterday...well they weren't assembled as I paid for...haha of course not! However, I can attest the plastic is very sturdy/thick..however, since there are no instructions...i don't think anything's missing from the baton..I already saw my shield only had 2 corner posts instead of 4 and didn't have the plate/strapping for the inside. For the baton, how many metal slats should have come w/it? From your pics I found the model, and found them on Home Depot...no biggie if I have to buy some more I guess...but was curious...thanks for the build thread, def gonna be using it!

Curious if anyone on here who's purchased Heston's F-11D rifle, if they've modded the holster plate by changing to a real metal one, or drilling into the gaps and adding screws in order to secure it to the holster itself... I asked him if he had any suggestions and he said the plastic shouldn't splinter, but the integrity could be compromised as there is infill inside the plastic which would be drilled through... just looking for any tips/advice, thanks!

I've spoken w/Jacob and Ching as well...Jacob is the fracker who "sold" me this stuff. Messaged Alder as well...nothing...pure shucks bag. I've even spoke w/Jacob twice on the phone...pretty much just all lies at this point. I couldn't take it anymore and filed claims w/PayPal last week...if Blu-Bin doesn't respond to PP by 7/5...money's refunded to me. I've since ordered a new shield from a different seller...trying to find another baton seller now...

You guys are EXTREMELY fortunate you even received your purchases from them! Ordered my baton on 4/27 and the shield a week later...status says shipped, no tracking...no communication. I've since filed claims w/PayPal...too bad because I was really looking forward to the baton too...ended up ordering shield from a different seller now...

same here...made 2 paypal claims against them...hopefully should have my money back by 7/6...they WILL NOT RESPOND to anything...screw that Jacob Pena guy...and their idiot owner, Alder Riley...

also check fnarmour.com for their soft gaskets...they're great!

what's the best way to heat up the plastic for this? and also by chance, you know if there's any documentation out there that would have the diameter of the circle? I can measure the it on my Anovos belt but was curious...thanks!

does anyone in this thread own both styles of boots? I have their TK boots US 12, was trying to see if the TFA boots would fit similar...I went a size up from my normal shoe size, and the TK boots fit great w/an insole. Also, can anyone comment on how true to size the TFA gloves are? I know when using shooting gloves, you want to go tighter, loose isn't apt...obviously won't be shooting in these but am debating btwn medium/large...thanks.

thanks for the tips...I purchased 1 8oz bottle of the RIT black dye and a can of black fabric spray....think I might try the spray method first!

yeah i heard the same thing about pre-orders starting soon....ugh, $1500...not sure if i wanna spend that much...arguably i've invested over a grand into my ANOVOS kit, but that was starting from $350 lol. I've been reading other reviews of his armor and looking at pics...it looks amazing, and his price is def much more affordable, i'd be opting for the $780 option as I have an FO bucket by ANOVOS. and yeah, idk if I wanna wait another year for my suit lol, waited 9 months for ANOVOS, then took a month to build it...btw, i saw some of your posts in the fbook group, haven't met you yet but we're in the same garrison!

so I've been following your thread and jimmiroquai's....would you say worth the investment thus far?

did you end up using a sealer afterwards?

in the same date range as you man...placed my order on 4/30!

hey Ryan, that was my original post on their page, thanks for asking that follow up question!

I just ordered this! http://www.rspropmasters.com/product/accurate-assembly-bundle/
