Hi guys been a long time, just wanted to share, last Friday a couple small boxes showed up, followed by a big box on Saturday!!

 

 

 

 

This kit even came with a letter written on a extra shin armor piece!!! I love it

 

Joined the Cardia Academy and on my way to TK hopefully. Now it's time to gather some hardware and spend some quality time smiling at the shiny!!!It may be a few days till I get more pics up, my Girlfriend is coming up from NC haven't seen her since OCT so ...yeah...priorities

 

Just excited to get this moving, and always up for advice and tips.. **salute!!

You're in good hands. I have a WTF sitting in the box for many months. It is bound for a mannequin. I'll be watching this thread closely

MY bad! I meant to say WTF helmets!  LOL@!

[Darth Aloha[Admin]]

Yeah the WTF helmet is really really nice. I have a couple I need to build. Time is not a commodity at the moment.

from what I hear it is cast from an original..

I'm pretty lucky to chat with Walt on occasion, busy guy LOTS of kids more on the way God bless!! He's mentioned the lineage, that's just icing on the cake for me because I love the way the helmet looks! The armor looks great too! I had better calm down it's to late tonight to start into it and my Girlfriend will be here tomorrow and she'll find me sleeping in the box and ABS all around me!!

Any build that starts off with WTF I'm following. If the build doesn't excite me the innuendos are sure to

Sorry haven't added much...caught up in a special project for Garrison approval.

This is a AP recast face plate,  all suction holes and irregular surface inside eye sockets uncut material match AP helmet 100%

walt is using gino molds

[ABS80]

I have no idea who Walt is but that explains since AP comes from same source

Walt is the guy who bought the V2 forms from Gino, and his name is "Walts Trooper Factory" aka WTF

He's the same dude that makes the kids TK. I have two of those helmets from him. I promise that they're not AP buckets

There is a subtle difference between the AP ears and the Gino ears...  lot's of little things are different in the cap n back

on walt's lids compared to the AP cap.  The faceplates are very subtle difference.
