Shouder connect to Bicep?

[TK-7186[TK]]

When building strapping can the shoulder attach to the bicep piece? I see under expert it states "No shoulder bell straps across the biceps", does that mean the shoulders can flop around?

 

Thanks,

The ROTJ shoulder bells do have a thin elastic strap on the bottom of the bells, but it is about 2" from the bottom so it cannot be seen across the biceps.

My shoulders were floppy, so I got some help. You don't want floppy shoulder bells.

Hmm. Not sure if this is alright, but what I have is a piece of elastic on a snap going from the shoulder to the bicep. You can't see it as it's black and behind my arm.

I have an elastic strap from the shoulder strap to the shoulder bell to the bicep.

on an ROTJ style suit you can have a strap for all these locations:

 

from shoulder strap to bell

from shoulder bell to bicep on the inside holding the bicep vertically

from shoulder bell midway to shoulder bell midway ABOVE the bicep- as the CRL states "across the biceps"

 

photos have been shown on ROTJ troopers with a bicep strap above the bicep armor laying across the undersuit.
