Mongoose[TK] Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Just curious how the armour holds up to colder temperatures. Don't want anything to crack. Was going to take my daughter out trick or treating but I'll leave the armour at home if there is a chance it'll crack or the E6000 let's go. Anyone spend time outside in say minus 10 Celsius?

Spudtrooper[501st] Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 My armour holds up fine in the cold. I have trooped in -16 Celsius with a wind chill that made it feel like -25. The E6000 held up fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrooperVenger Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 It'll hold up fine. I'd advise you to wear an extra layer of clothing under your bodysuit if possible because you'll be really cold. I did a troop in January here in the UK which involved lots of standing around for photographs. I was freezing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongoose[TK] Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Oh I have the long underwear all set out to wear under the black suit. Thanks for the input. I'll give it a try then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on this troop with Ricky, and freezing was an understatement even with thermals underneath my bodysuit We even had snow at times and it seamed ages till I thawed out The armour held out well though with no issues.

tkrestonva[TK] Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 One word - snowtrooper. Makes a great second costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongoose[TK] Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 One word - snowtrooper. Makes a great second costume. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea. Gets kinda chilly up here in winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK Keith[TK] Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 One word - snowtrooper. Makes a great second costume. Great point! I've always liked how snowtroopers looked, but then again, I like how almost every set of armor looks. This can be an expensive hobby/obsession.

Mongoose[TK] Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Although I'm sure I'd be warm enough with some extra clothes under the armor, with all the snow that we've got I'm not going to risk it. Almost slipped and fell just walking to get the mail. Last thing I need is to take a spill while in armor. That could get kinda expensive. Thanks for all the input.

stormtrooperguy[501st] Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 One word - snowtrooper. Makes a great second costume. That's my solution! I don't wear TK/clone suits outdoors in the cold like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
