Vader and Bespin Luke took several years. With luck, they'll ship these out by March. Otherwise could be awhile. Really hard to tell honestly.

I'll give nail polish a try. I was also thinking white Plastidip may work as well. While I wait for comments/approval on my EIB application, I've gone ahead and started addressing some final things before applying Centurion. Here's what's on the menu for December: - Replace hovi mic mesh, paint inside/rim off-white - Re-paint vocoder (ANOVOS paint job sucks) - New chest-to-back/shoulder strapping (to eliminate gap)... will also probably have to remove most/all of the return edge on my shoulder bells - Lower 'han hook' on right bicep (sits higher than left) ...Plus anything else that may come out of my EIB submission.

Have you tried taking out the return edge on the back first?

Looks good so far. Sand/fill/prime/repeat. And repeat.

Congrats Dan. Been following your build on here for awhile, you should have no problems with EI and Centurion (we may well get our EIB at the same time!).

Looking good! Snazzy helmet.

Noticed the belt was a bit low after all the photos, so I added some Velcro: (Too lazy to put thighs on.)

Anyone know of something more durable than Testors white enamel for painting rivets? Keeps chipping off...

That's probably better than the film helmets.

I'd err on the side of caution. Much harder to add than remove.

Let's make snaps! ... and done!

Great work! Now I have yet another item to add to my FOTK shopping list.

I found that gently heating the adhesive (but still not hot enough to warp the plastic) and the velcro comes right off.

Now the fun begins!

Mic tip mesh, if you choose to replace, is also incorrect. PS: Might want to put some foam/felt on the backside of those chicago screws on your holster, or you're likely to chew up your kidney plate. Learned that one the hard way...

Better to fix it before paint/ears/trim. Way to go.

Magnets?

I think that would be okay, but I'd double check.

Hey now, that looks pretty snazzy. Congrats.

December 22nd also happens to be the last day of their shipping quarter. I'd like to hope this isn't a sign of another delay.

New snap plates/straps are under way in preperation for my EIB submission: For those wondering, I use a hobby iron to heat up my snap plates and bend them to fit the contours of whatever I'm gluing them to. Also am nearly finished with my thighs. All that's left is a bit more sanding/polishing on the left thigh, I had to add about 1/2" to the top due to overzealous trimming:

That is technically a biker scout, though.

Congrats, Jeff! Now for Centurion! (We need more in the Garrison!)

Good luck on the build! RS Propmasters offers everything but the undersuit, FYI.
