Hello all! Sorry for going radio silent for a while but life has been a little hectic. I have been doing some trimming and will be trying to get the legs trimmed to a glueable point this weekend. When I work on that I will take photos and post an update. I do have a question right now though. I need to order my belt, paint for the buttons, and a rigging kit. I know there are Etsy people who sell all these items but I am curious if anyone knows if any of these sellers are also members. I would prefer to get stuff from fellow troopers versus big businesses. Can anyone recommend? Thanks and I will post an update this weekend with photos of my trimming and the bits/bobs I have so far.

Thank you all for the welcomes. And yeah, I just went through this past weekend and laid all the pieces out on the floor. I stood there for a good full minute starring at this pile of while plastic in wonder and fear. Luckily, my local garrison is having an Armor Party in a couple of weeks so I am going to take it over and have experienced eyes help me figure out what is what.

Hey how'rya?! My name is Mark and I am in North Texas. Just got my big brown box about a week ago and will be starting my build very soon. Working on ANH TK with hopes of having approval by Q2 of 2024. Just wanted to drop in and say hello to everyone.

In your helmet interior pics it looks black. Did you plasti-dip it or have Dave do his flex seal treatment?
