[Armor]

Thanks for the video, hopefully you do photos or another video when you put it on and fully suit up. Curious to see how the fit is.

[Need ABS plastic for repairs and strips for thighs.]

Having no luck finding any ABS plastic at any of the hobby stores in the Hamilton Burlington area in Ontario where can I get ABS plastic? I need 8 pieces 20 mm wide for my thigh tops. And some extra for tabs and armor repair. <br><br>

Help please.

[Foam lining inside your Armor]

What foam are people using inside their armor to pad the inside. The armor I purchased has simple grey foam chunks duct taped in. Is there a better type of foam to use to pad with? <br><br>

The padding is in the forearms, calf pieces and thighs.

[My New Armor Box]

I just bought the DeWalt case as well off Amazon. I'm going to pad the inside and paint the outside.

Progress update...<br><br>

Armor-I bought a well trooped in AM armor kit from a friend and 501st trooper, but needs a few modifications as I'm much taller, lucky they bought spare pieces. So I need to assemble the new thighs and chest pieces. <br>

Helmet - New AP ordered.<br>

Belt - TKettle Belt Ordered.<br>

Boots - TK boots received.<br>

Neck Seal - Darman seal Ordered. <br>

Blaster - Ordered.<br>

Holster - Bought and received.<br>

Fan - Echo fan order request sent awaiting reply. <br>

Communication - Icomm, 1506 voice booster and wireless headset ordered.<br>

Gloves - Nomex ordered.<br>

Case - Dewalt 63 gallon tool chest ordered. <br><br>

So basically I ordered everything this week and should have all of it by the end of January. Ideally by March it will be all ready to go and then I can take my pics to submit entry into the 501st.

[Field tool/repair kit?]

What do you recommend to be packed into a tool/repair kit to travel with you while out trooping?

[Fogging lenses]

I played paintball for years and everyone's lenses fogged up but my friend and I. Get a small pump spray bottle like a 3 or 5 Oz. Mix of water and dish soap. I squirt on each lense and wipe away. No more fog.

Where are those stickers from?

Well that all happened fast, AP helmet ordered and a blaster too! <br><br>

Once it all comes in just need to add a mic and fan in the helmet. And distress the blaster. <br><br>

Hope to be trooping ready by spring.

Well I just ordered a belt, neck seal and gloves...only a blaster to buy next. Where do you recommend I go for that, I've searched the forums but haven't found much. I've seen a few rubber cast ones that look great and are trooping friendly from people hitting it. Eventually I'll get "hero" quality blaster for photo ops but a durable good looking one should do for now...

 

I'm considering replacing my helmet too, its okay but a bit rough, poorly painted and the lenses were hot glued in. (it was a eBay find about 4 years ago before I knew about this place, buyer beware indeed)

[AP helmets ready for some action]

Is there a link to order these or order from your next batch?

I'm almost there I purchased a TK suit from a member here and have started adding the missing pieces, left to get are: neck seal, belt, blaster, gloves, voice changer and then some paint touch ups to do on my helmet. 

 

I'm in Burlington, Ontario.
