Can only imagine how difficult this must have been and at the same time such an honor to be apart of. Wish I had known one could attend online…rest in peace Dan.

Thinking as it is covered mostly by the gaskets, to cut off the angle and have the highlight follow it down (thoughts?)
You can trim them down

Can’t understand it…don’t want to…took me awhile to understand the IG post of his passing….I couldn’t process it…just the other day he liked a post I made here and now he’s gone. Like others said I also never got around to meeting him in person but due to our contact on these boards over the years I consider him a very close friend…my heart goes out to his family and I want to do something..don’t know what…but something….I’m going to miss you Dan and I just should have booked that flight over from Sweden to London when we talked about it those years ago…

The armor above is EFX that never was…they got hold of a set of original armor from a private collector.

I have 11 buttons and each button can store 3 phrases and you play by memory. I can mix the phrases and replace as many times I want. For example if I want to go FOTK I have phrases for that stored on the PC and just plug in the soundbord and copy/paste.

Seeing these builds finally being completed is making me so excited to get one for my self. I've tried so many ways to get an FO but this really feels like the most achievable and they look so good!
It’s a great kit so you won’t regret it

My noggin is either too big or my helmet hole is too small, or both.
Just making sure, are you doing the TK-twist? (Putting it on sideways and then rotating it)
If not that will most likely do the trick

Just re reading the Lvl 3 stuff on the CRL, what exactly is the butt joint method? I couldn't find anything concrete that matched that terminology when browsing through threads. Just want to clarify what that is before I commit to final assembly!
That means no overlapping of the armor pieces that you join together. Edge to edge with a plastic strip over it.

It feels soooooo good to have this wrapped up

I’ve scoured the forums, and there doesn’t seem to be any consensus on what type of armor to use for the TKC. Does anyone know the best type? ANH, ROTJ, ESB? Is there anywhere that sells the TKC armor without the need for modifications?
Hey
Do you mean ready to wear? Or a kit to build yourself? In any case I would reach out to Troopermaster, you’ll find him on FB.

Haven’t looked in on them recently but their armor was previously a recast of RS propmasters.

I like this idea, but I've got an edge on my kidney and butt plate so this wouldn't work for me, but I do like it.
I’m sure Glen @gmrhodes13 will be along shortly and show an alternativ

RS shins are shorter than most.
They are not. I would be surprised if they cut yours shorter given you have them your hight.
Easy enough to check as I have a pair of RS shins, I can take one with me on the Mandalorian-Troop if you like

Also, EFX were given permission to make a mold from the original ESB Fett helmet (stored at Lucasfilm) for their pcr helmet. Why woulden’t another licensed company be given similar access one might wonder.

Well, Disney owns Lucasfilm.

Hey
Just wondering if the @Deployment Officer Team is still valid?

What is the extra length of leather from the strap, with a hole punched in it for?
So you can lenghten the strap if needs be. You need to ad a snap on your own though, if it somehow ”gets in the way” then cut it

Does anyone know of any reputable armor suppliers that do or are willing to sell individual pieces and not just full kits? For example, I'm looking for an ANH TK left shin with sniper plate and a right thigh with ammo strap? Would appreciate any info you have. Thanks.
What armor do you have now?

I’ve actually already done that twice now!
Feel like I’ve pushed it as far as I can without repositioning everything, which I don’t think I want to do.
In that case - carry on Trooper
