  1. I think it’s looks better. Shoulders could still come closer to the shoulder straps and I’d try and get the biceps higher. Other then that I think you did a great job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. Don’t go crazy trying to measure everything if it’s packed away. It’s basically a curiosity thing cause I would rather have the smaller one for ease and think most other people would as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. So I’m gonna throw this out there and see what people think or already know. I recently replaced the neck trim on my stunt and the one I got was considerably smaller and easier to work with. I don’t remember where I got the first one but with the smaller one it makes getting my head in so much easier. Is there, or has there ever been any talk as to what the size of the trim was? I only knew the ones size that was listed as a “TK neck trim”. This is purely a question out of curiosity, I in no way want to start something that’s gonna push into any CRL changes.

  16. Just as an added note Trooperbay’s one piece has dual zippers so you can still go to the bathroom but honestly it’s a pain in the butt no matter what you have on cause plastic armor doesn’t have zippers. I agree with the going cheaper cause I’ve already found that compression wears easily. My Tommie Copper set was bought with a really good deal and it’s truly amazing but if I didn’t get the deal again I can’t see spending that much money on compression. Trooperbay’s was less expensive ($100) and seems like it’s less likely to wear due to rubbing. Starting out I’d get a cheap set from Amazon and see how you like it. You can always switch up at a different time. And I actually went over the logo on my two piece with black permanent marker, it helps but it’s not permanent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Took me a few minutes to figure out what stripes you were talking about but I’m on the right page now. I’m in no means an expert on the commander or anything for that point but I looked at the CRL and it looks like the top stripe goes across the the area of the foot where the leg curves into the foot around where the heel starts on the bottom. For the front stripe I’d just come off and inch or two maybe. Honestly it’s not stated in the CRL so I’m assuming nobody knows exact measurements but one would use a best guesstimate. http://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_commander Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. I have two sets. A one piece from Trooperbay and a two piece Tommie Copper. I think I’m more partial to the two piece. I feel it is a lot lighter and cooler then the Trooperbay one, it’s also easier to get into when it tight spots like changing in small bathrooms. Neither are thermal but since the Trooperbay one is heavier I mostly use that when it gets a little cooler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  23. I knew the video was floating around somewhere. Every time I see it I hope it’s an extended version which includes a slam dunk during a 5 on 5 TK pick up game. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. My opinion is move the bells closer to the shoulder bridges and see how that works (marked in red) You can also shave down the tops of the thighs (blue) to raise them up and give you a bit more knee room to walk, just stay with the natural contour. I wouldn’t go too crazy just yet because you still have to velcro the calves which might help a bit. You’ll notice the stock CRL photo has some black around the knee (green), I know some purist say go for minimal black showing everywhere but I’m a firm believer if your not comfortable your not gonna want to wear this for hours on end and you will be walking a lot. You can also see on the back of the CRL pic the calf and bottom rear thigh are cut slightly curved to help bend the knee. So my opinion would be when you get the velcro do another test fit and if it’s still not better then I’d personally adjust the length a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Hey Jared, looks good. Only glaring thing I see is your shoulder bells are too far out. They need to be closer to your body/shoulder bridges. Other then that it’s hard to tell but maybe realign the arms. Your thighs and calves look very close, can you walk in that thing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
