Good point, I'll email them and let you all know what they say.

I did notice they renamed these kits and they are now make no mention of TFA or TLJ. Looks like a mostly TLJ suit from those photos. I'm curious to see if they ship us TFA helmets or TLJ helmets, given that the original pre-order was for a TFA version if they send everyone TLJ helmets that would bother me. Especially if they send out some weird mishmash that needs a ton of work for Centurion.

This contest is now closed, thank you everyone who entered! Lots of great designs, the command staff will convene and pick a winner shortly.

It’s almost as if these are costumes from a low-budget 70’s movie!

Welcome aboard.

Final call for entries, contest closes in ~15 hours folks!

If you swapped the 501st and FISD text around and changed the date to arabic numerals instead of roman I'd say you'd be on the right track. You could also pull the troopers inside the ring and then it'd be round-ish.

One day left!

My helmet has two fans which I can turn off independently, and I still use one fan on colder troops just for airflow. The only time I haven't is when I had an outdoor troop and it was quite windy.

I spray-painted the inside of mine with flexseal and replaced the hard hat liner with tactical padding and fans:

Two days remaining to submit your designs, troopers!

Welcome!

+1 on helmet fans

Welcome aboard Jennifer.

Hopefully I'll get to see a KB in person, other than soft details that seems to be the best option out there right now. Thanks.

It’s a terry clip (1/2” I think).

I don’t see anything that should hold you up for basic, I would raise up those forearms (a simple strapping adjustment) to even out the gaps between you bicep/forearm/handplates. If you plan on going for EI/Centurion I’d highly suggest: - a new belt (vs. patched) - no dropbox gap (top should be flush with belt bottom) - thigh TLC, coverstrips are quite wide and off-center in the back

Impressive. Did you start with 3d prints or is that all by hand?

I didn't mind the R1 updates, adding detail and making them more stunt-proof etc., but it drives me bonkers they used the same armor in Solo when it takes place like a decade earlier, I'd have expected a Clone/TK hybrid.

Good job!

One week remaining!

Vocoder looks very good to me. Paging @CableGuy as he is the tube stripe police, he’ll make sure you are on the right track.

I bought a big bag of them from Home Depot. Here's what it looked like whilst clamped:

Everything is shaping up nicely. Sniper knee plate looks harder than it is. Just do what Tony and I did and use a million clamps and you’ll be golden.

They don’t actually do that (I think), but unless it recently changed they do charge quite a bit to ship things.
