HOWTO: Make Inner Drop Boxes


Recommended Posts

Well I am in the process of building a TK set and saw in some screen shots of an ANH trooper with 2 parts to each drop box.

So I made the master yesterday in about 20 minuets.

It's amazing that no one did this sooner. Great job Kevin, and interesting twist Tony. Yet one more upgrade I'll be spending money on :)

Kev these look great , looking forward to this build :D

 

 

My ANH TK Stunt build WIP thread is HERE.

 

That's great that other prop-makes are, or will be, including the inner drop boxes with their kits. They are a part of the armor. I wasn't planning on offering them but if someone needs them I can try to help out.

 

Thanks

Yes! We neeeeeeeed this! :D

Your TK is an ATA, right?

Any idea if this will fit on an AP?

I guess there might be differences (albeit small) between makers.

Most of my current armor build is a CAP and I am using some of ATA parts. These Drop boxes are from CAP. I did not get drop boxes from ATA because it will be a TD suit.

 

I have a buddy that has a set of AP I will try to get with him to see if these inner drop boxes will fit or I I need to make for the AP kit also. Because I know my buddy will want a set too.

Great!

If you manage to pull a set that fits the AP's drop boxes, just know that I'll be interested in one.

Cool! :duim:

Thanks for pointing out the misspelled word.

Fist = First. I corrected it on my first post for you.

 

I noticed yours too...

It would "bwe" nice to know if they fit the ATA drop boxes. I could really use these....

 

Anyways fun time is over and Yes I believe they will fit.

I just got my ATA armor and could really use a set right now. Is a run possible?

I'll second that request, if it's not too pushy.

A run of these would be fantastic!

I'd definitely be interested in buying a set if you were inclined to make 'em.
