Welcome aboard.

[ANH Stunt - belt attachment suggestion]

I think updating the image is a good idea even if not necessary for L2/L3, accurate information is always better IMO.

[Newbie from Northern California]

Welcome Paul!I have (had, thanks Covid) a similar build to you. I think you should be OK whichever vendor you decide to go with.

 

I’m “over the hill” in Reno, feel free to reach out!

[Hello excited this is finally happening!]

Welcome to FISD. I see you are (or will be) in CCG... I would reach out to @sharkbait who has built a Phasma as well, and is in our Garrison.

Congrats!

Welcome Shawn.

Keep in mind the SS snaps are significantly harder to set.

For lift or comfort?

 

Which trooping boots?

[RS 10th anniversary sale]

"Display only"... someone will troop it. I guarantee it.

 

You all better act fast before our replica guys buy them out.

The Lawsuit removed Disney and CBS and Lucasfilm and is going ahead against Anovos since Anovos was unable to provide an valid excuse to dismiss the case. The 501st subreddit has updates on it time to time. Most recent update I think was April/May.

RPF seems to be the best place for lawsuit updates.

[Left arm warped...]

That is probably good enough, the cover strips and glue should force them the rest of the way. Mine weren’t perfect either.

Wow

Now I've got to watch it, I'm a couple behind.

Hello and welcome!

[TK 8527 Requesting TFA Centurion Status (Anovos) [467]]

Congratulations and great work.

[4 years later.... let's do this for real....]

Welcome (back)!

 

It seems daunting at first but by the end of the build you'll learn so, SO much. Especially if you decide to make another costume down the road... TK's are actually not the hardest first costume in the Legion, IMO.

[EIB Paint Requirements for Hero Helmet Hovi Mic Tips Correct?]

I believe the original hovi’s were white/off-white and painted black, and what you see is the paint wearing off as mentioned.

 

I think rewording the CRLs as some kits come with black and others white hovis, to avoid confusion, maybe?

Interesting so maybe if we ever decide to make a Endor version of the ROTJ TK that would certainly be a differing factor as part of the look and weathering.

They do look nice and white on the Death Star and nobody is going to ask to look at the underneath of the sole to see an off white colour.

I do remember the weather look being discussed in the past, and probably on a few occasions but nothing has ever come of it.

The other implications would or rather have been is the fact several are seen on screen without Thermal detonators (obviously lost during the shoot or stunt men without for safety).

 

A dirty variant would be neat!

 

As for TDs being optional because some TKs lacked them, IMO, I view those like Mr.-no-stripes or Mr.-upside-down-bicep. Production goofs.

Welcome!

I added my $.02 to the Legion boards.  They really are going to bully anyone who disagrees with them.  Sigh...

Deja vu, man.

[themaninthesuitcase 3D printed TLJ build]

Good work. I bought a 3d printing pen for the same purpose, soldering iron is a good idea too though.

[Brandon requesting pre-approval and experienced input and any suggestions?]

That was fast! Good work (soon to be) trooper.

[Looking for Spray Plastidip Tips]

FOTK? I think I have read it being done but it is likely not very easy.

 

I took my ANH apart.
