Yeah, the only major variations on the fiberglass version I can see is that the angle on the mesh stripe is less pronounced and slightly thinner, the chin is a bit higher, the temple area is less angled and doesn't flare out as much, and the inset line running across the brow and between the two ends of the neck stripe is not as prominent. jimmiroquai's take on the helmet shares more in common with the ABS version than the fiberglass, so I think I'll stick with the Anovos head when I submit for approval

Awesome, thanks for all the advice!

Is the color difference drastic enough that the Anovos helmet would need to be repainted to match the fiberglass kit, or would that same tone be fine for the whole suit? I already sent an e-mail to Anovos to get the Pantone color they used for the plastic helmet so that my armor will match, and I'm already in progress on 3D modeling and printing a replacement mic-tip to swap out the stock one with, so that can be matched to reference for the correct orientation

Let me clarify - by approved costume, I think that user meant an existing approved costume other than the FO trooper (Standard TK, Clone, etc). That bit of info seemed sketchy to me; likely they got mixed up with the requirement for getting the marketing kit. From your answers I'm fairly positive I'll be in the clear, just wanted to double check. Thank you all!

Hey guys, first time builder here. I've got a FOTK suit on order from jimmiroquai, and I'm collecting a bunch of notes and references on building until he gets through the 80 odd people ahead of myself on his queue. I'm just wondering if the Anovos commercial release FO bucket meets the CRL requirements for Legion approval, or if anyone using it has had it approved - I'd like to know ahead of when I need to put down payment on the suit if I need to add his helmet to my order to work with rather than the Anovos one. Additionally, someone in my local garrison forum has said that in order to be approved as an FO trooper you must already be a member of the Legion with an approved costume. Is there any truth to this? I find it hard to believe given that I've seen some folks that I don't believe had access to the pre-release kits get approved as FO troopers; probably a stupid question but just curious.
