Any update on the painting? What’s the cost do have a professional paint job?
noticed you said the armor was soft. Do you feel the AbS was inadequate vs others?

Wow. Sorry to hear! Glad KB and Jsin are making it better. They even had struggles and found a way to pull things together. I’m new to all of this as well. Just received my KB kit Friday.
I also believe that KB and JSIn should be added to the vendors list on these forums. I think they finally have a system on how to get it done.

Now that Mimic is planning to ship out our armor in two batches, I thought its time for me to post up my build thread. Mimic states that he's going to ship the kits in 2 batches, the first to dispatch is the back, butt, abs, chest, yoke and cod. The limbs and helmet will come later on. So far, this is where I am with my needed gear:
Gaskets - Geeky Pink Gaskets -got them
Gloves - Imperial Boots -got them
Boots - Imperial Boots -got them
Neck Seal - using my current ANH TK neck seal
Belt - Jafo - got it
Cloth Pouches - trooperbay - got them
Undersuit - StormtrooperUndersuit.com -got it
Blaster Rifle 3D printed kit of the F11D about 75% sanded
Pistol3D printed SE44c hasn't been started aside from printing it - waiting in a box for me to sand it
Helmet - Anovos TFA
Helmet Electronics - Ukswrath's amp/speakers, home made USB fan rig -I've got them, but haven't installed them yet
Armor - ???
Harness - condor tactical vest
Am I missing anything? After getting the undersuit and trying it on, I'm pumped to get this armor completed. The undersuit is already more comfortable than what I wear with my current TK. With 4 other people here in Vermont on this Mimic order, we're going to look amazing.
**EDIT**
after pulling the plug on Mimic's run, I've now ordered a TFA kit from KB Props. I opted for TFA vs TLJ primarily because I already have the helmet. There are now 3 of us in VT instead of 5 building together. KB told us 4-5 weeks. The hype has returned.**EDIT (again)**
KB Props has declared that he's closing and has advised all unfullfilled orders to seek refunds from Paypal.Apparently KB is up and running soon. 7 months I have been waiting. Wondering how long now.

Looking forward to my KB kit I ordered end of November. I know he has had some tough times. I'm at 11 weeks now verses the 3 he said when ordering, I'm fine with that as he provides a good product.

Nice job! What electronics did you choose? 4 fans? Wow

This is where I would contact my credit card company and report. Waiting 2 months for a refund on something not shipped is ridiculous. Credit card would get the money back fast. Or the email to joe as reported above.

Can’t wait to get my KB Armor

Amazing work!

11/5/17 - New World Symphony Concert for Kids - A Star Wars Spectacular
This was another great troop as not only did my son get to participate in his TK for the first time, but I pulled double duty as both a TK and later as my bounty hunter alter ego Greedo! It was a definite learning experience with Greedo as the ventilation system that worked during the trial runs, didn't seem to cut the mustard during the actual troop. I hung in there like a champ though, and managed to put plenty of smiles on people's faces along with my fellow Legion comrades. And the concert itself was amazing as the orchestra played music from all the Star Wars movies.
My lovely wife pulling handler duties for the first time. She and my daughter did an amazing job handling for 9 of us and it all went off without a hitch! She got quite the stares walking to the performing arts center with those DLT's in tow!
The three of us suited up and ready to go!
The entire squad in the photo room ready to meet and mingle with the crowds.
After the morning show started, we took a stroll along historic Lincoln Road on South Beach and had a blast just watching everyone stare and take pictures as we hung out. Many weren't sure if they could come up to us, and often times asked if they could take a picture with us, to which we gladly obliged. Here's my daughter with her brother and my brother. I'm in the background telling my fellow TK RagTooth to hurry up and get those pizzas delivered in 30 minutes or less otherwise Vader would have our butts!
My son guarding the art store while Vader went shopping inside...
Is this the droid we're looking for??
A little mid-troop bucket display as we were treated to lunch.
Then it was on to the afternoon show. This time, I shed the TK and donned the Greedo. Please don't judge me LOL....
Our boss Vader doing his thing and claiming all of Miami Beach for himself!
Where did you get the handler shirts?

awesome man! so you're in the states I take it as well yes? yeah my armor is Jimmi's and I would have gone w/his but due to the shipping and time, I wanted to do more research. I really like my KB helmet...I got the first coats of white applied a cpl days ago...gonna do some wet sanding tonight and hopefully finish the white at least...
Yes. In Southern California. He said it will take about 3 weeks for delivery. I may have some help with finishing it. I’m so picky and honestly scared to mess it up. I have never really been at artist.
I know one person on here offers to finish. I wonder if more do as well? Along with quality.

Nice looking armor!

I stand corrected. I to was often worried. Yet when he came through. I was thrilled more than anything because of the way others have been scammed like what Mimic did.
