tk-1842 Posted January 19, 2009 Report Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Just thought you guys might be interested in seeing my progress. Now I just need to go buy some straps and maybe I can actually wear it. ----- ----- Edited December 5, 2020 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2020 Quote
dougefresh Posted January 19, 2009 Report Posted January 19, 2009 Oh man, you gotta strap that thing up and run around in it! If you're anything like me-- and I imagine many others -- you'll instantly revert to being a hyper, giddy, beaming 12-yr-old kid. It's a mix of "this is SO friggin COOL" and "Ohmygawd, I'm a dork" that you'll never forget. You're gonna have a blast! Quote
tk-1842 Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Posted January 19, 2009 Thanks guys. I'm gonna have Vader Dave help me with the straps. Quote
TK8776 jgarrettg Posted January 19, 2009 Report Posted January 19, 2009 -- you'll instantly revert to being a hyper, giddy, beaming 12-yr-old kid.It's a mix of "this is SO friggin COOL" and "Ohmygawd, I'm a dork" You nailed it! What a feeling. I've really gone through a lot of those dual emotions while wearing my armor. The last new one was at Halloween. Confirmation from the trick or treaters parents that I was a dork and their kid screaming bloody murder when I came at her with candy. Emotion: "Ohmygawd! I'm a dork and Crap! I'm terrorizing a kid!" It's been a liberating experience. Armor's looking good Phil. Quote
bobby fletcher Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 I have a huge roll or 2 inch elastic strapping. If you need some? Quote
tk-1842 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 I have a huge roll or 2 inch elastic strapping. If you need some? Possibly. Thanks man. I plan on putting it all together this weekend so I might just buy some before that. I'm anxious as hell to get it all on. Quote
zZER0 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Nice job, looks good!, no much left to do! Quote

psychotropic Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 It's a mix of "this is SO friggin COOL" and "Ohmygawd, I'm a dork" that you'll never forget.

I LOOOK SOO COOL!!! while my friend says "you are such a nerd" haha. but you will love suiting up. its coming along nicely man Quote
Jello[501st] Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Emotion: "Ohmygawd! I'm a dork and Crap! I'm terrorizing a kid!" It's been a liberating experience. Yeah, if that don't sum things up nicely, I don't know what does. It's a good thing that we have the buckets; I can't be seen grinning like a maniac underneath. The reactions from the kids -- big or little -- is why I do what I do! Quote
tk-1842 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Posted January 21, 2009 Thanks for the support guys. Not to get off topic, but what do you guys think about TK1421's dual fan system? Will it work in my MRCE? I'd hate to spend $30 to find out it doesn't even fit. My face is almost right up to the frown as it is. Quote
