Luckily gaskets come with the Anovos kit. So I will see how those are first. But all this info is great! Thanks!

Yeah that’s what I thought this neck seal didn’t look 11 rib. I did like the magnet idea. I’d do Anovos but the size I suspect I need is not available. I heard from Geeky Pinks the recommendation of under armor compression gear and then shiny biker compressions shorts on top. I’m looking into that as well.

Looking at neck seals and under suits. What are the opinions/recommendations. I saw stormtrooperundersuits.com and liked the undersuit, not sure about neckseal though. https://www.stormtrooperundersuit.com/star-wars-stormtrooper-first-order-magnetic-neck-seal.html

Also to note I’m building a kit for TLJ, small mods from what I see with the codpiece and two grey paint spots on forearms. I also have the TLJ helmet on order from Anovos and it is scheduled to ship in the same window.

Really hoping this is final and that BBB comes through. I was late, so probably won’t get it in early waves of shipments.

I’ve got a blaster set on order from Etsy. Seems good quality. I will see how it is and if any mods are needed once I get it. Here is the page: https://www.etsy.com/listing/537606855/f-11d-se-44c-blaster-combo?ref=shop_home_active_3 I will get my gloves and boots from imperialboots.com with their next wave opening in March. Probably looking at getting the neck seal from Geeky Pinks Phantastic Gaskets (Facebook) Still investigating undersuit options.

Now that Anovos looks to get their armor shipping out I’m going to be detailing my build thread here.

Let’s hope there’s no return of the money. Followed by the debt awakens and the last penny.

Their site now shows the kits as “not available” I haven’t received any negative emails so I’m hoping that means things are now wrapped up with their preorder capacity, and moving to get things going from there. Then again as everyone has said before and again, we can only hope and wait right now.

850 Armor Works has an FO kit for about $500 plus shipping so I heard. No helmet, but there are other suppliers for the helmet.

Depends on what you are looking for. Most all of them will be kits still. Anovos is charging a mint for their fully built armor because they are more of a manufacturer than they are a builder/customizer and they can provide the armor cheaper if you do the manpower, so they are going to make you pay for them to do the work. One of the guys in my garrison got himself some armor from Jim Tripon (Jimmiroquai), but it was a kit requiring building and paint/detailing. He told me it cost him roughly around $1000-$1200 when all was said and done. Ive messaged KB Props, but haven’t heard back.

Yes last I heard was a small update that things are on track to ship out by March 20 EOD. That being said I’m sure they are waiting for approval. My previous update they mentioned that the build instructions were in process of approval. if this is all true. I’d say they are building tons already and the moment they get approval, they are going to be pushing those out like crazy. i have to wait for my helmet nonetheless. I ordered TLJ helmet and it won’t be shipping until Spring 2018 time period. another thing I can see is they are focusing most of their work on OT and FO TK armor as they had to put other armors offline or on a wait to meet the demands for these. So I’m hopeful and optimistic, but who knows for sure.

When you bought it was the shipping window the Fall 2017? I know they had to push that to winter 2017, but from what I’ve seen and heard they usually break things into blocks and then you have to wait for your block.

I’ve preordered the Anovos armor that should be shipping Dec 22 - Mar 20ish. Has anyone else preordered this and heard any status update? I’ve reached out and let I heard in December they were finishing the review of the instructions and things were starting mass production, but I wanted to see if anyone has heard more? I’ve reached out again as well. Once I get mine I aim to make a video tutorial building it as well.
