Good morning legionaries! 

 

My name is Chris. I'm based in Buffalo NY and a member of the Nickel City Squad and Garrison Excelsior. I've been a member for a couple years now with a Line Officer, but have been a part of our local Fan Force for 15+ years. I have a few non legion costumes, and am purchasing a TK kit in the next couple of weeks. A member of our garrison is selling his Anovos TK and it should be a perfect fit for me. It's been a dream to troop as a TK for many years now, and I'm happy to finally be in a position to get a kit.

Hello and welcome to the Legion.

I picked up the kit yesterday and test fitted it this morning. I have some very minor adjustments to make (mainly the thigh armor and the shoulder bells), and need to get used to what snaps go where, but overall this fits great!

[Crampeat[TK]]

Welcome Chris! Looking sharp in that TK armor. 

[Shanester[TK]]

Looking good trooper!

Welcome to the FISD. Armours looking like a nice fit on you apart from what you have already noticed. 

[Kam_den_Vox[TK]]

I ended up purchasing “tactical” suspenders to attach to the belt that holds up the thigh armor, so I can synch that up to the proper height. 
 

I just need to experiment with the best way to spread the shoulder bells open a little more to  not pinch into my upper chest

Boiling is generally the best, safest, and most gentle way of modifying plastic shape. Fill up a big pot and make some armor soup. Try to keep it from touching the bottom.  I use my rubber TK gloves to protect my hands from the heat while reforming.
