Can’t you start a new one? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Best of luck with the build. Nobody will be judging you we are all here to help you get approval into the 501st or build an awesome prop, whatever you decide. With your experience I’m sure this will be a no brainer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can if you want. Mine fit tightly so there was no need for glue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m impressed after all that you got things fixed. Wow, amazing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice work! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice job Rodney, don’t let the negative side track of this conversation, which should have been done in private take away from what you’ve accomplished. You’ve worked hard on your armor, it shows, you’ve earned this, enjoy it for a few days then on to Centurion, that should be easy as well. Just make sure you get all the pics the first time around, lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It looks like it’s fitting very well with the gaskets Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have that AM and I’m a bigger guy so I didn’t need to trim them but mine hang fine when I wear it. If you need to slightly trim it I’d stick with the same size/shape and you should have no issues. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice job, looks great Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol, I guess I’ll get mine in the end of January then. It’s shipped and it went through the China post office on 11/28 but it’s got no further updates. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How long did shipping take? Mine is in the mail just curious when it’ll be here Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dude your way to nit pickey. That’s spot on and even in time for the movie rerelease. Your gonna look awesome wearing that to the show. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So wait... everything on the internet isn’t true? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Now is the perfect time for researching all this. You’ll find as you read a ton of build threads there are 100 different ways to achieve the same thing, it basically comes down to what you like best and what you want to do. As long as you stay within CRL there is basically no wrong way to do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I believe he used self stick velcro for his. The entire helmet is velcro so those pads can move anywhere and it’s easy to put velcro on anything (fans, batteries, etc.) to have it stick in there, plus they are removable to clean. I personally used a hard hat liner. I found it easier, just another thought to throw in there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol now I’m more anxious to see what they do for me. I ordered the Kylo so I’m guessing a onesie as well. If it’s trash I’m gonna return it. I’ll save on shipping by crushing it into a smaller box. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did you get an actual PJ onsie? Now I’m interested to see what I end up with. Did you contact them about a return? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just make sure you keep asking questions if your having second thoughts. We’re all here to help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How much did you spend? You contact them about a return? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For real? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks good to me. It’s just hard to tell if you had straps or not. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pretty sure he means use painters tape to bring these pieces together. When it’s fully strapped that’ll give you a tighter fit which will give you a better layout of how it’ll sit on your body. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For the record I could have helped with this but since Matt already counted me out then I’m not gonna answer.... Jk, I’ve got no clue why that would happen. Where did you get the ABS from? I’m wondering if it’s just cheap ABS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here’s my thoughts. Question 1... Do what makes you feel comfortable, there is nothing in the CRL that states anything about return edges on a back plate, therefore there would be no issues with EIB or Centurion. If you like them a bit wider then leave them wider as long as it’s not awkward looking you’ll be ok and from the pic it looks perfectly fine. I left mine wider on the back and front, wish I had trimmed the front more due to cracking but have had no cracking issues with the back. Question 2... If your trimming the sides then I personally would hold off on any further trimming and do a test run to see if you actually have any snags to fix. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Heat bath is easier then a heat gun. Just get some hot water in a bin or bucket and dip the part in. It’ll take a bit longer to do but there’s no chance of a burn or fire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
