TK-Sharp[TK] Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) I also like to post the way I'm packing my trooper case having everything but helmet and blaster inside. I hope this will inspire other troopers out there. In order to get everything packed I basically decieded to strap the armor using snaps and elastics. The suitcase I'm using is a hard shell suitcase, measuring 75 x 50 x 34 cm. Sit back and get some popcorn One thing to mention: The bottom of the suitcase has rolls. On the pics it is at the right side ... and now enjoy ... First the Kidney and Butt Plate (can be left assembled) Right thigh with right shin and TD Left thigh with left shin Back of thighs looking up The boots Neck seal, white cotton gloves and waist belt for strapping plus foam pads and shoehorn Rubber gloves (Hand Plates facing down) Jump suit (2 parts) Waits belt with holster attached Shoulder bells (put together) First complete cover Back plate Chest plate - it is important that the shoulder stripes "flow freely" The shoulder straps have to show towards the top of the suitcase so that there is no weight on them when moving the suitcase using the rolls (at the bottom) Be careful when carrying and be sure the chest plate is always on top. Otherwise the straps might break apart. Ab plate Biceps and forearms (left and right) - put together Some cover ... ... and it's done! Only helmet and blaster can't be packed in ... ... but there's a solution at least for the helmet ;-) Now we're ready for trooping! I Hope you had fun ...

TK-Sharp[TK] Posted December 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) Nice job! Love the suitcase.....Thanks for sharing! Thanks a lot. We had a little power failure today and I decieded to do someting "offline". So I took the parts of my TM and tried to get them into the suitcase where my "old" FX resides The suitcase is a "Hauptstadtkoffer" Type "Alex". It's the only white one I found which is that large (120L) ... ... The stickers are custom made.

Starfox2010[TK] Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 Dude, this couldn't have come at a better time. I'm trying to get everything in order for my first troop coming up in a month and this was something I was stressing about. Since Christmas made me broke and can't get that home depot box people are getting, I have a good size suitcase I could use in the mean time to practice placement. Thanks for posting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
