Cheers Nate,

 

Your a gentleman

[Hello from Brussels]

Welcome Ben.

 

Get comfy here, there's lots of info and help around.

Hi Mark,

 

Yeah that is a superb tutorial. He's taken it MUCH further than I'm gonna go.

 

I think I'll stick to the ears and brow mods until I order my ATA lid.

[Is this holster OK for EIB]

Cheers guys.

 

I may try to detach and move that securing strap over a little.

 

Hey Shiv

 

Ordered a hensler box and gonna lower the butt attachment this weekend.

[Is this holster OK for EIB]

Cheers Aaron

 

Those things can be changed.

 

I'm more concerned that the holster is too flimsy???

[Improvements to my humble MRCE.]

Cheers guys.

 

As usual, inspiring and helpful.

 

THanks

[Is this holster OK for EIB]

I have attached a pic of my holster ( sorry about the size ).

 

I don't know whether it is good enough for ANH EIB status.

 

 

Any thoughts?

[Improvements to my humble MRCE.]

Hi Guys n' Gals.

 

I,ve trooped a few times in my MRCE now ( at first I wasn't happy with it but it's growing on me ).

 

I think I've decided to try and improve it a little further by

 

1. The dreaded 'ear change'

2. Raising the brow a little.

 

I'm sure many of you fine folks have doen one or both of these mods on an MR so any hints ( or even pics ) would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Darren

[How often do you get freebies?]

I got my bum felt TWICE by some lovely ladies at the Glasgow Collectormania troop.

[Coutdown to 100 EIB - DONE!]

Got to add a Hensler to the e-11, improve the d-ring ( the cast one is pants ), sort out the rear split below the belt and I think I'm good to go ( may need a better holster as well ).

 

 

I WILL BE ONE OF THE 100 ( at least thats what I keep telling myself )

[Keeping Cool]

Never used a cool vest, but have used cool max balaclava and that makes a difference. Other than that just fans for me.

[Master Replica ANH Helmet VS FX Helmet]

I'd have to go with the MRCE too. I have one I regularly troop with it carrying fans, batteries, a mic and I used to have my romFX in there too. Plenty of space.

 

The FX just looks odd. <_<

[ROM F/X running on Lithium batteries]

After similar problems I contacted a fellow member who is an electrical whizz. Now I run 8 AA rechargble batteries.

 

I've just done a whole weekend troop ( about 14 hours ) one one set of batteries.

Where are the rest of the pics????? People need to see how you abused the very people who helped you!!!

 

Hmmm, sounds interesting

[Hello one and All]

Hi Ian from another member of the UKG.

 

There is loads of help and info here mate.

 

Good huntin.

[So, you reeeeely want to be screen accurate?]

You don't suppose they could be one and the same????

 

Ah,ha. You may have something there Gary. Are they ever seen together?

[Naatsirhc's ATA]

Aah Christian that wonderful feeling of opening up brown cardboard boxes full of cool stuff

 

PRICELESS.

 

ENjoy the build mate.

[TK6631 requesting EIB status.[78]]

Hi Steve.

 

D-Mac tells me he has a spare Hensler in his garage so I'll buy that off him.

 

The butt is my only real dilema ( the armour's not mine ). It is split, but it lies under the belt. Thinkin I could just lengthen the straps that hold it on?????

 

( comments from anyone here welcome ).

[So, you reeeeely want to be screen accurate?]

Now the debate begins- what did the 8 mean??

 

Maybe it's a badge of accuracy. ( Only 8 shots fired before he could hit the barn door from twenty paces.)

[TK6631 requesting EIB status.[78]]

Nice one Stephen.

 

Told you that you'd get there before me.

 

All I've got to to now is get the butt section below the belt line and fit a Hensler to my e-11 then I should be there too.

 

Darren

[Hi from Ireland]

Hi Keith welcome mate.

[sskunkys TE HDPE Helmet WIP]

Yeah that's what I thought Mark.

 

I never was a patient person

[sskunkys TE HDPE Helmet WIP]

Nice work sir. I'm reading everything on painting lids at the moment so I'm finding it helpful.

 

I had a problem with a lid a while back, when I laquered it the paint crackled ( don't know if I left it long enough ).

 

Can't wait to see this finished.

[More rare TK pics]

Some really good pics there Jason ( a lot I haven't seen before ).

 

I agree with you guys, that pic of the guy posing in armour looks all wrong, way too many discrepancies to be a actual movie suit. He also describes the undersuit as being 'baggy'.

 

Suspicious, very suspiciuous

[Bluehickey's completed armor]

Nice work sir.!

 

The same set up as I'm using. Good build
