  1. The more I read and soak in info about the ROTJ TK, the more I want one...
  2. My thoughts exactly. It costs almost as much as an armor kit with the electronics installed!
  3. So, I was shopping for a lightsaber for a build i'm planning when I came across the e-12 blaster rifle on Saberforge... https://saberforge.com/collections/blasters/products/blaster How accurate is this in terms of what we use here in the FISD? Could someone clear approval with this? Is it completely out of the question for EIB and above or does it depend on the GML?
  4. Thanks, Tony. This is usually more of a Jolly Rogers Squadron kind of thing, am I correct?
  5. How can I get in contact with Walt? Is he on FISD?
  6. Hello, does anyone know who makes Inferno Squad Armor kits? Thanks.
  7. Thank you, everyone! I will take a look at all of these options. That Praetorian looks so good...
  8. What are the options for me in terms of acquiring an E-11 to go with my suit? I know there are resin kits and foamies, but what do you veterans use? What holds up and looks good? Give me your two cents, everyone.
  9. Thank you all. Ugh, I just want my BBB already!!!
  10. I'll just wait until I have enough for a full kit from AM. Not worth the trouble and worry.
  11. Thank you guys, knew it smelled like Bantha Poodoo.
  12. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Wars-Stormtrooper-AM-2-0-Armor-Kit-Helmet-Included-More-See-Details/192841539361?hash=item2ce6405f21:g:EKEAAOSwUnJcbfl9 What do you think, troopers? Should I pull the trigger?
  13. Thanks, guys. I think i'll keep my TK nice and polished until it develops some nice wear and then I'll make it a HWT or a sandy . . . our brothers over at the MEPD look mighty nice.
  14. You see, I think a bit too much. Would a slightly weathered TK gain clearance? Are there any canon examples of TKs that have been slightly weathered, as if they've seen a bit of combat? I'm thinking less HWT and more of just a particularly worn TK.
  15. Thanks, everyone. I'll get a pile of both kinds suggested because I definitely have a list of costumes I wanna blow all my money on.
  16. Hello all, I'm gathering supplies for my first build so I can start immediately on the kit when I get it. My question was, where would you veteran builders out there suggest I source my snaps from? I'm not sure if anything I'm looking at is genuine or garbage.
  17. Wow! How am I just seeing this now? Definitely makes me want a ROTJ...that weathering is gorgeous!
  18. Good, good. AM makes a good kit from what I've seen, and I'm excited to start! I've been reading threads for so long, I'm dying to post my own.
  19. I am 5' 10", as stated before, and weigh 240 pounds.
  20. After some looking around and some email conversations with some vetted armor vendors, I have narrowed my choices down according to price. However, there's a problem; I weigh a lot more than the men the armor was originally designed for! I'm a former swimmer and am quite muscular, as well as only 5' 10''. My chest, thighs, and waist are enormous and I don't think I'll really fit anything without a mean shimming job. Are there kits out there for people like me, or is there some creative shim work in my future? I have head that AM and RT-MOD are good for larger people.
  21. Hello, all! I've been lurking here on the FISD for a long couple of years, soaking in all the information, dreaming of a far-off BBB day. But I had a question: in 2019, what would be the best option for boots? Where should I get them? How much could I expect to pay? Thank you in advance!
  22. I don't think it would bow out if the entire area you marked in red were reshaped. That is, if you were to heat the sides and corners up and curve them in. That should help the back plate follow the kidney armor's curve, I think.
  23. This will be a great asset for when I get my BBB, thanks for sharing your journey!!
