  1. Fascinating stuff here.
  2. Nice find!
  3. Looking forward to watching the rest of this build
  4. That's a great find. I don't know how I feel about the calf snaps, but the rest of the straps and snaps will really help when I start putting my kit together.
  5. Can someone pm me the info for AP?
  6. Ah, ease of assembly is definitely something to think about. And the information about the holster is good, I was wondering if it was worth the "extras" in the FX kit and it seems like it's not. Do the MRCE helmets have more of a "hero" frown or am I just looking at the picture wrong? I like the look of the wider frown on the AP.
  7. Thanks for the replies guys. Maybe an AP second is something I should look into. I'm 6' about 180 with an athletic build but I don't have a big head so it looked like the AP might be right for me. Based on when I'll be buying the armor it will probably serve Halloween duty first and then trooping after that. Elite status is not something I'm really concerned with, I'd like to get a TK # and the FX armor price is what I'm comfortable with. I guess it's time to search for the helmet makers on here...
  8. Hi guys, I'm new to the forum but have been lurking for a while. I found the 501st while looking for resources for a TI and have now decided that I'd like to go the TK route instead. I'm looking at an FX kit, but I am wondering if I should go with the FX lite and source another helmet. From the pictures on here I think I would be looking at an AP (the smallest of the major options right?), but I wanted to get some info on pricing. I know we probably can't have prices out in the open so I am looking for an estimate here. The FX lite would save me around $200 over the full FX kit. Is this enough to get me into an AP lid, or am I better off getting the full FX with helmet liner, holster, etc.? From what I've seen I don't mind the look of the FX bucket and as long as it's 501st acceptable that's what really matters. However if I can go more accurate for less or the same amount of money I'd like to do that... Thanks
