RogueTrooper[TK] Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 I think the guy on the left has a better handle on being accurate with his armor than Rubies... What da ya think?? As Obi would say..... This is not the armor you are looking for.... Now move along..... RogueTrooper My Creed is - Shoot first, if there is anyone left alive ..... then you ask questions Quote
bluehickey Posted October 18, 2009 Report Posted October 18, 2009 Hey, a good salesman can move any old piece of crap. This guy knows he's got a lemon, but he's giving it his best spin ever. Quote

Charlie, it is licenced armour... made by Rubies. There was a member here modding the hell out of a kit and making good progress. Not sure if that was the guy that got refused, or someone trying to get 501st acceptance with an 'out-of-the-box' kit. Quote
