poisonfox Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I think the winner of the Armor Wars is TupperwareTK's AM armor! I was looking for a mix of accuracy, durability, price, and ease of construction, and his armor seems to fit. This will be my FIRST set ever! What say the the Forum? Discuss...

TrooperTim Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Building it should be tons of fun. I dig a good build thread. Not too knowledgeable on AM, but looks like a good kit. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poisonfox Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm gonna do it! TupperwareTK has an email in his inbox (literally) with my name on it! We'll see what it looks like with my VT lid. If it looks like crap I was thinking of buying his helmet kit too (when it's finished). I think he's including an FX type lid at the moment. Either way, I will keep you guys posted with a build thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dearmeat Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm working on my AM Build and trust me you will be very pleased. This being my first build and learning along the way. It has not been a hard as I thought it was going to be. Please post some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bell[TK] Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 I can say quite honestly that AM armour is great. I've almost finished my set. Two more straps on the shoulder bells and that's it. As has been commented it has nice thick plastic and the detail is lovely. Also with all the extra bits they give you you can go either ESB or ANH or even SD Can't say enough about this armour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poisonfox Posted February 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Arrgh! I don't want to go to work today! I just want to wait for my armor. That's a good excuse, right. Think my commander will buy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnQPS122[501st] Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I've heard a lot of great things about AM armor, but nothing new about the helmet. I might be wrong, but if it's still the same FX helmet we all know, most people would tell you to get something else. Or maybe I've just missed the new info about the new helmet, if there is any?

poisonfox Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 You're absolutely right, it's still FX. That's why I bought the "LITE" kit instead. I like my VT lid better! According to TupperwareTK, the new helmet is a ways off from complete but will be sweet! I may buy one. I've heard a lot of great things about AM armor, but nothing new about the helmet.

Sergiotron Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Congrats Derek! I've just contact TupperwareTK and you're right, his replies are fast. The only thing is that I can't choose the best helmet for the AM lite kit. That's becouse I want a perfect color match and better accuracy than FX. Not sure which helmet is the right choise. BTW, please be generous with pics! I want to see the entire kit out of the box before you do any mod -Sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueTrooper[TK] Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Congratulations Derek!!! You are going to have so much fun, man. Take lots of pix and post as frequently as you can. Don't rush your build, that's when you make mistakes. If you have any questions or need help, don't hesitate to post. Have all the tools that you need and lots of E6000 glue. Enjoy this! If you see yourself getting frustrated with your build, just walk away and take a deep breath!!! Can't wait to see your build. man! BTW, what version are you doing?
