Hey Guys
Great names! LOL
Watch out when you take the stock stripes off. If you use a solvant to remove them you will remove the paint.
I didn't realize the mrce was painted but it is and resulted in a full repaint for me.

That is some incredible looking armor
-
Thanks for those. I was just getting ready to look for some
-
Hey Stomper,
That hyperfirm looks great modded out.
I'd love to have one of your grips with imperial cog. Can you help me out?
-
If its a nite troop just go in your suit.
You tell the kids its leaking hydraulic fluid, works everytime.
Only downside is you have to wash your underarmor every 3 to 4 troops.

Its an mrce, thats the wireless wallmart voice changer board stripper out of the unit and I bought two AA battery holders to hold 3 batteries so I had room in one to put a on/off button in it.
I just used a hardhat liner, I didn't want padding in there. I live in Florida, it gets hot, I wanted as much room for air to circulate as possible. I have to get some fans in there before summer hits.

A haha nevermind looking at it again. Those are the stock mr lens that came with aren't they.
I can see the post inside holding up the helmet.
Decals look awesome. Can't wait to get em.

Hey Mike,
Just ordered some decals. But I had to ask what lenses did you use in your sample pic above.
My green lens look black from the exterior but those are showing the green really nice.

I measure 9" just under the nuckles too.
I received the medium sized gloves yesterday and they stretch nicely around my hand for a tight fit.
Thanks Smitty

If your local friend doesn't come through on the blaster and you can't ship international I'm in need of one.

Here with a Carlos update.
I meet him a couple of weekends ago at a local armor party. Very cool guy, he was helping install some fans in a bucket when I was leaving.
Thread hi-jacked by Carlos and he doesn't even know it.

I found that pic over in the "requesting elite status" portion of the forums
You can see the butt is attached just about at the same area as the drop boxes.
-
Yeah attaching the kidney plate to the ab plate and wearing the belt will make a big difference to the butt I'm sure.
-
I'm in the middle of a build as well and have a butt plate issue too.
I haven't done this yet but I was thinking that sewing velcro onto the undersuit and velcro at the top of the butt plate would hold it nicely and obviously the kidney plate needs to be raised to match the front ab plate. This might pull the undersuit away from your body though.
The other thought I had was too use black elastic to attach the top of the butt plate to the front ab plate around the top of the crotch area. But this idea would have a visible black elastic strap going from butt to crotch. Butt to crotch - hehe.
Just some thoughts I had, I haven't tried them yet.
Let us know what you come up with.
Your build is looking really good.
MRCE mod question.

I used magic eraser and I could still see a ghost image of the stripes so I started scrubing like crazy.
Where the left tube stripe was its all tan colored in the pic. It took the white paint right off.
I was just gonna repaint the frown till that happened.
