Looks like I am going to skip the mod and get the TE2 bucket. Any photo's out there on how to close the gap between the back and kidney plates?? Thanks
-
Welcome!! lot's of great folks here
-
What type of paint is best to paint the MRCE??
-
Yeah. It's like people who paid $500 for an MR clone helmet and a year later they go for $200. Sucka! All the more reason why I don't buy licensed goods...
Good one Ya know I figured that with a company that had to go through Lucasfilm for approval they could have done a better job on it. I am not going to razz on the individual who has it because it's just not cool. Sometimes people make purchases to be a part of something they themselves enjoy. I am sure it could be modified into a good looking kit with some work and help from some folks here

I have AP and I use a mix of snaps and velcro. I've found that the industrial velcro holds really well and allows easier adjusting for fit. To make my straps I take the elastic straps and add fabric glue. Then I place the industrial velcro (with sticky backing) onto the glue and let dry. You can sew it but I don't know how to sow. Fabric glue dries real fast as well. I have some of my snaps pull off or break and I've replaced them with velcro. But to each his own.
Very cool I decided to do the industrial velcro on the armor and this weekend begins work on the MRCE. By the time that's wrapped up I can begin the armor fitting and build. Pics to follow!!
Thanks everyone!

So...I have my MRCE that needs much work under closer inspection. there are a lot of seams that need to be filled in on this thing and I was hoping to do a non-pull apart teardown mod of it but that's not going to happen Next I got a good deal on an FX kit that arrived today so I need to get the parts to begin fitting/building. Now here is what I have pending....
Gloves
correct ab buttons
new lenses
hovi's(wait list)
I would like to see if there is anyone who can help me get a list of items I need( I would hope so )
such as...
correct paint for frown
mesh for frown
strip for brow adjustment
body suit
neck seal
blaster kit
correct holster
boots
Another question I guess is preference on velcro or snaps to build with. I have looked over a lot of pcs and tutorials but I want to see if I can get a majority ruling on this. I will have pics here as I progress...wish me luck!!

What upgrades/changes will need to be made for accurracy??
-
Hey there fellow newbie! I'm new here too, but I thought I'd give a shout out to a fellow Texan. You're just a couple of hours down I-20!
Yup!!(standanrd Texan reply!) Thanks for the welcome everyone!
-
Pretty sure it's good to go, might need a change of tube stripes but I could be wrong!
Very cool. hopefully I can get some more info on this. I have so much work to do and parts to get!! but I guess that's the fun

Yes..EFX is made up of the folks who left MR to start EFX after the license situation <_< I can get an MR LE just helmet for a steal and was wondering if that too would need serious mods to it or good to go as is. It' said they scanned the original so I am in the middle on this.
-
Thank you for the links. My other question would be what is the opinion of accurracy on the MR/EFX LE's or do I just go on and rebuild my CE.
-
thanks everyone! That avatar is great
-
OK so I have the MR CE helmet now and I want to convert it to resemble more closely the ANH helmet. I am having a hard time finding helmet kits and this was a decent price and starting point. Any pics and help is greatly appreciated. Thanks
OK Here we go folks!
