TK5144

Did you take any pictures of how you trimmed the faceplate? yours has the least amount of gap above the ear that I have seen!

Interestingly, I had just ordered this stuff 2 days ago from amazon, then I saw this topic. I will try it when it arrives next week. Reviews on amazon were pretty good... people got CA glue off a countertop, even clothing. I too am interested if it will damage the ABS. I will try it on a scrap first.

------------ pictures of the new ears are above

What about the chest piece? is it larger, more ANH like... or still the smaller chest, like the TE lineage all are?

Is it true that the MTK armor has been modified to fit a 38 inch waisted trooper? without shims in the AB to Kidney piece?

is the RS helmet much bigger than the TM? looking at your pic here the one on the left looks ALOT bigger???

? progress ?

try this http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh309/appstro/100_5788.jpg

look at the 14th picture down on this page of this thread... (although you should read the whole thread!) http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/2066-te2-stunt-build-upte/page-3 that is where to cut where he put the pencil lines

once you get your ears lined up it will be easier to see where to trim around the neck seal http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/14154-building-a-styrene-anh-helmet-with-cap-w/

is there a picture with size comparison of Karins and trooperbay?

isn't that still a stunt helmet? brow looks too high for Hero helmet

this TK wears it, as he is boarding the falcon.

Since the TK entering the falcon had the grappling hook box - can a TK be built in a stunt ANH fashion - but be built with the grappling hook box and comlink instead of the thermal detonator? or is this arrangement considered only for hero TK?

Haven't seen anyone get this yet... could be the first? Or are they still shipping the old AM model?

but still a TE2 helmet origin?

Anyone know, is TE2 still making kits? HDPblues has not posted in months, inbox is full.

Yes, its a Hyperfirm. I added the ttrack. No side box added (yet).

just sharing. (scratch MG15, "made by Greedo" dlt19, Hyperfirm MG34 modded, Hasbro clone modded) all toys (mostly hasbro or kenner) filled w bondo, sanded, painted.

The TK that boarded the Falcon for the scanning crew carried only a DLT19.

get the black duct tape to start with, then no undersuit needed.

wasnt the trim applied differently for anh vs rotj? Anyone with some good pictures?

what size do you wear? several TK boots on Ebay, just yesterday. may have been large size only. search for a used pair of Chelsea or Jodhpur boots. paint them white... also works, but not as good as TKboots, IMO. but would get you by. Iv never owned CAboots, so cant comment there.

you DONT have to repaint the entire helmet. just make your teeth holes bigger and paint the frown larger, raise the brow trim, cut down the ears, replace the tube stripes - you will be fine. Oh yeah - fill the gap above the frown with white caulk or similar. AND replace the lenses with darker lenses. there were lots of MRCE mod threads a year or 2 ago. search my post topics for my finished product photos. Actually for $150 for this helmet, then do all the mods, it really would be cheaper to get a VT, AP second, or ATA. I think all of those look alot better, just personal preference. Even fully modded, I still think the MRCE (now eFX) still look a little off... i think its the frown that bothers me the most. That said - I keep my MRCE, because it is by far the most durable helmet. Not too heavy, weight wise - but it is SOLID plastic.
