chrskmbr Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 It was from one of the first live simulcast interviews with the two owners at C7, from the ANOVOS booth. I though it was interesting when he said something about the collector had the armor for about 25 years in his basement and somehow the guys at ANOVOS found out about it and contacted him.

Pikmin Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Around 6:50 mark they talk about having access to Lucasfilms remaining New Hope and also Jedi TK suits 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat[TK] Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I thought it interesting that Rogue One will indeed be set 5 years pre ANH and so the OT TK will live on in the 21st century. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I remembered this interview as well so I went back to check. It's appears it might actually be this interview with efx about their stormtrooper prop armor. They talk about finding the collector and him having it in a trash bag. So Anovos is working with Lucasfilm and efx with the collector. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U48niAkKMzg Edited May 14, 2015 by AZ_ST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astyanax Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 I thought it interesting that Rogue One will indeed be set 5 years pre ANH and so the OT TK will live on in the 21st century. Not to hijack this thread, but I can't imagine Rogue One would be 5 years before ANH, unless it's just backstory. That's right before SW:Rebels starts. Also, we know that it's about the "heist" that got the Death Star plans. I can't imagine the Alliance sat on those plans for 5 years prior to sending Leia on her way in the Tantive IV. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesnarles Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) If it's a precursor to Dark Forces, culminating with the first level, then that's an amazing idea. Hear that, world??

Barret Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Hi this will be my 1st armor. I have no experience at building and I am really worried if I buy a kit I might ruin it . I have watched countless build videos and it seems easy enough if not time consuming. I wanted to get an opinion, Kit or pre-assembled?

Not a single person here hasn't felt the way you're feeling now. Some have $350 kits, some have $2000 kits. Don't fret, when you're ready start a build post.

charlesnarles Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 We all had no experience when we started. Lots of experts here to help at every step. Someone else here said it best: unless you're a doctor/lawyer/etc. and your salary equates to your time spent being worth more than the price difference, you should probably get a kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=Sv3=[TK] Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 It feels so cool that we are all in the same boat! There will probably be so many new build threads when this ships that the boards might explode! I can't wait to get more concrete details on this kit though. Like a video preview and a more precise shipping date... I'm in here every day, many times a day, hoping for an update from GotMaul or a new piece of information, it's like I'm going crazy!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James[501st] Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 I got in on May 3rd and now playing the waiting game. If all is well this will be my clean TK and my current kit will go sandy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have an Anovos TK meet up One thing is for sure: with that pre-made helmet in the kit, this would at least result in a group photo with everybody having the same "face" on their helmets (no stunt or hero mixup) Edited May 17, 2015 by T-Jay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtbringer Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 I plan to go, if possible due to job/time - but definately not costumed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
