  1. Too late
  2. That is a lot of helmets! I see and raise you with 6 TE lids! Including of course, one strange one-off myself.
  3. Lost mine as well last week when my workplace was franchised and the crew was tossed. It's pretty lame and leaves me in the ditch like the rest. Good luck to us.
  4. My progress....I moved the parts from one part of the house to another Why is this stuff so hard to get started on? <_<
  5. If you try something in cloth, you can coat it in vinyl paint. Or make a mold, mix canvas into the core of some liquid latex.
  6. Fantastic looking suit! So that's what one looks like actually assembled? I'm amazed; I totally regret not getting an ABS one, that is a whole other level on how a suit looks. Congrats, and I TOLD ya not to worry J
  7. Beauty! I'm seeing a ROTJ group pic happening for CV
  8. And the after: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ais/983014521/sizes/m/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/trukidz/539397256/sizes/o/
  9. Precisely.
  10. Gotta go find a really cruddy box to keep mine in Just a bit more info: stick one of your thighs inside the other til it gets royally stuck: that was how one set was being cared for in the archive.
  11. I'm pretty sure that anyone needing an elite rotj can do it with my Starlite blasters, they're pretty generic in terms of size, the major details can be added, all my body mold will include is the vent holes, end cap and grip. Stay tuned.
  12. Unlikely, I can't even get them into an ANH helmet, and the rotj is more snug.
  13. Hope I can too. Asking Matt if I could replace it should the worst happen(knocking on frikkin TREES here), he sent a pic.. Will not be able to get another suit, but maybe a helmet. Continue wishing me luck, I can use it.
  14. I'm not questioning your interpretation. But that's no reason to take a public position excusing recasters if they hit the "right" people. TE is the reason we have something to work with that doesn't look like recast Marco, whether he's polite or not does nothing to dismiss that. The official position is "Not condoned nor policed" You just condoned recasting.
  15. Dude, not cool in the least. I consider gino and richie to be total POS's who've done no different, but I would never advocate recasting them.
  16. Now I'm just trying to keep it...... Those pesky financial problems keep popping up, hoping this won't end up in the classifieds.....
  17. Not to detract from the other thread, thought I would show my WIP rotj suit. To quote Grease: Got any Scotch Tape?
  18. I THINK it was in 2000. Sadly enough, that was after meeting TE so I have little or no excuse. I trooped a TRU X-mas toy drive. I got into my then ok-ish royal Guard armor made by someone else, then saw the others get suited up in their various suits of fx armor. It was pretty cool, even with the santa hats on the helmets
  19. Very cool. Getting mine next week.
  20. Drink nothing but Gatorade that day. Haven't needed to go once while trooping doing that.
  21. Glossy extruded Styrene is also as shiny as ABS, but harder to find.
  22. The bumps did not result from pulls, but how the molds were made initially, as was discussed here some time ago. And the Empire dang sure would make perfectly perfect armor for...pacification J
  23. Been there, done it. Just make sure the clay hardens/dries enough to not suffer under the vacuum. I use cheap clay, just gotta know how to finesse it. I tried freezing it once, the plastic crazed all over the place, unnecessary as it turned out.
