Tier 1 was $350, Tier 2 was $450. Then after that was $650 apart from a black Friday sale, so 3 I think.

You're a braver man than I! I'll be cutting the mag down to reduce the depth needed to be ground out. Partially for strength partially because I'll carve through the walls!

This is looking like it will be a seriously nice build!

I'd already given up seeing my kit this year due to being tier 2 and also having to wait for it to clear UK customs, and was hoping for January. Now I am starting to wonder if it will even be February. I'm not overly surprised by this but disappointing non the less.

I like how no one has picked up that Anovos has said kits are enroute to the warehoused. The kits are now made people! Though being end of tier 2 I won't see mine this year, and I would put money on that.

There was an email in an early news letter that the gist of it was "for any new product expect to wait a year if you order day 1". Now with the FO trooper this may be a bit different as they already have a head start on the design and manufacture side as some are already in the wild. I'd still bet on at least a 4-6 month wait depending on how many people order them.

This sounds interesting. I looked into audio processing via arduino and almost instantly gave up due to not really understanding it. Would love to see what the code looks like.

No problem, will see what comes then decide what to do. If I buy another I'll try keep the one they ship.

Anovos replied (very quickly I might add) Shame but understandable when you have so many to do. Making odd exceptions would be a nightmare.

Excellent. Just shot them an email.

Still the biggest unknown this one. I want to know if I'll be using the bucket as is, repainting or even replacing (either fluffy bunny kit I build or someone else). I honestly wish the helmet came un-assembled as it's something I was looking forward to but oh well.

I've clearly missed something? Been a bit busy, any chance of a link to what the request was?

Starting to look forward to ship dates now. The images clearly showed production is well underway so it can't be to long now. Speaking of which can someone magic me some more time to finish my E-11 build?

I'll be using shapeaways I think. It's an online service who offer a range of materials but generally you'll get better results than you would from most home FDM printers. Still not worked out which material I need to use but it's going to be cheaper than buying a printer, though slower and harder to iterate.

I've been doing this for my build too. I think that the next leap in blaster builds will come from 3D printing some of the parts and will be especially helpful on pipe builds. I found the cube the trickiest part so far, trying to get the chamfering right. I've not attempted the cylinders yet, I might just use yours as they look pretty good. That said learning to model is proving quite fun. So far I have the sight block, sight pin and the cube. Might have to try wings 3D too, looks a bit more advanced than 123D Design. Good work.

Looks like they are closed for the year now. They did send an email but that wouldn't help people not on the list. Basically they want a holiday break like everyone else and so are clearing the books before the holidays and will open again in Jan.

That's pretty much the thought process I had. The grey for the ab buttons is probably a close enough match too. Not sure if I'll make or buy a new belt yet. Will see how hard it is to get the fabric I need I guess.

Forgot to say mine came last week, though I had to pay! Very happy with the boots, fit well (ordered up 1 size as suggested) and the inner soles are good and seem like they should be good for a troop. I do have 1 tiny issue which is the left inner sole isn't 100% perfectly aligned so sticks up a shade at the back but I've had this with other shoes before. Certainly not worth returning over, I'll just take a knife to it to trim the offending foam. I took some pictures which I'll post once I get round to it.

Those look great, those counters look fantastic unpainted like that. Would love to know the source for them if you could share?

Good luck, I'm just starting my build so I know how daunting all those other threads are!

Just ordered some more glue using the link mcott65 gave me. Not heard back from the other seller yet but will give them the weekend to respond.

thanks I'll get a tube ordered. Money back or no I can't see me using the last tube.

I've contacted the eBay seller as a "concerned" buyer. I didn't use the words fake or counterfeit but I hinted at this. Will see what they say. If I'm not happy it's a PayPal dispute. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The colour on mine seems more brown than the one you posted but that could be lighting (but doubt it). I am now reasonably sure this isn't a legit product so will bring it up with the seller. I did ask a UKG member where to get it and basically eBay is it. As far as I know there is no official uk source but I think I'll do some more research on this. Just glad I only got 1 tube now in case I can't get my money back. Edit: just went back to the listing and the picture looks completed different and more like the one you showed. Should hopefully give me some ammunition to get this resolved.
