  1. LMAO!!!!! I saw that on the news this morning!!!!! I was eating breakfast and almost threw it up when I saw that horrid armor!! But the equally horrid looking Vader shaking his head in disgrace was still hilarious!
  2. OMG that is the sweetest thing ever!!!! Looks like the little guy had a blast!
  3. I use a set of black thermal underwear from Walmart during outdoor cold weather events.
  4. Wow, they got this one up and going quick!!! Can't wait to see one in person!
  5. My kit's an MTK and I've wondered why he isn't on our vendor list too. On the Trooperbay Facebook page he posts sale links for TK/TD armor in his eBay store, the most recent one was just a few weeks ago.
  6. OMG that is flippin' awesome!!!! I love the DVD player (and the Episode choice, as I'm an ESB TK lol)
  7. These conversions are always amazing. Though I don't think I would ever have the patience to do one lol.
  8. Hahahahahahaha Lumbergh Trooper!!!! Love it!!
  9. Beautiful kit!! I admire anyone up to tackling a Phasma build. I hear it's one heck of a chore and just the paint job alone is grueling. Great job!
  10. I tuck mine in or else it bunches up like in your pic.
  11. That really is a beautiful lid. That's also the first real close-up shots I've seen of one. Great job!
  12. That looks awesome!! I like what you did adding the fleece and the cool fabric. I may add that in mine!
  13. I use one of these: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sterilite-Footlocker-Black/16415912 Holds everything except the bucket, which I have a helmet bag for. And it all fits very easily in my itty bitty Fiat lol.
  14. Industrial strength Velcro. I tried using E6000 and even Zap-A-Gap (even though I hate that stuff with a passion) on the foam in my forearms and it just wouldn't stay. Since I put the Velcro on them, they haven't budged, and it's easy to reposition later if you need to.
  15. I love this!!! Putting that dirty armor in the washing machine!!!
  16. This thread keeps getting more and more fascinating!! I love how this pack looks more militaristic than ones from the other films, more practical. I love following backpack build threads and at some point I swear I'm going to make my own lol.
  17. Using rare earth magnets or clamps will help it stay in place, as long as you leave them on for at least 24 hours.
  18. Man even though my armor is ESB, I want to make one of these!!! And this one looks like it may be easier to do than a standard HWT or TD pack. At least in my inexperienced eyes.
  19. Pardon me as I drool all over my keyboard!!!!! Absolutely stunning, Jim!!!
  20. I don't know if they're of any significance to the film, but I think I want to build one
  21. E6000 hands-down. If you make a mistake it's much easier to take apart but takes 24 hours to fully set. Zap-A-Gap is evil. It dries almost instantly and is a major pain if you need to take something apart. A piece of my left index fingerprint is still stuck in the inside seam of one of my biceps!
