Daetrin[Admin] Posted April 1, 2008 Report Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) Found this link on MEPD that compares RT vs. original ANH armor. A great side by side chart. ------------------ Edited December 14, 2020 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2020 Quote
TK-4510[501st] Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Posted April 1, 2008 Nice! I never saw that before! Quote
Masked_Rider Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 I emailed Rob a week ago...waiting patiently for a reply EDIT : may 11th -- unfortunately I can't afford RT's armor and will have to settle for the FX till I get a new job, hopefully sometime within the next year. That's ok though, because I wouldn't want to dirty up his armor for a sandy. Quote
RT-Mod Rob[501st] Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Fellow Troopers, Hey thanks for all the kind words! Life has been busy and I dont get the time to drop by and browse or post very often. The latest news from my end is the upgrade of the oven ( some of you may remember the huge delay while I was waiting for parts and such) and now an option for a communications package in the helmet. Demand has been steady and I am now at a about a 2 month wait list ( I wonder if i should raise my price )....NOT I am running low on my present plastic supply and have been feverishly searching for an even higher grade product to give the guys a great suit...at the same price I am also doing an big upgrade to my website and am looking for anyone who has purchased an RT suit to send me their pics to be posted in the 'RT Fan Page'. And I am having a page to show all the different methods and modifications on how to assemble armor...so if you have pics of such send 'em along. The site is expected to be up and running in early 2009. Rob. 1 Quote
DarkHammerTD7758[501st] Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 this is great news rob,,i cant wait till the beginning of next year to upgrade my fx to RT to go along with the bucket i got from you,,which i love..thanks for the update. cheers dan Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Thanks so much Rob for providing wonderful kit that looks good, is high quality, and at a competitive price. I'm sure you'll not be lacking for RT fans worldwide!! Quote
laptopluke[TK] Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 Good to hear Rob! Looking forward to the upgrade. As soon as I complete my RC I'll be ready to upgrade my FX to your RT armor.....to compliment my RT-MOD bucket of course..... Quote
Star Wars Helmets Posted November 21, 2008 Report Posted November 21, 2008 I remember a number of years ago when Rob first started producing Stormtrooper armor, and specifically an email conversation we had when we needed to come up with a "name" for his armour on StarWarsHelmets.com - and "RT-MOD" was born! I think the way youve handled yourself in this difficult business and not least the way you resolved the face-plate situation made it clear to me that youre a true gentleman! Cheers Jez Quote
SolderMaster Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I can't wait to get my RT-MOD! Rob, put that plane down and start vacu-forming! lol Quote
Eric Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 lol. yeah i have a helmet coming in the mail from him. i cant wait. Quote
SolderMaster Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 Here's a couple pics of my RT! I can't wait to get started! Thanks Rob! Quote
moisturefarmer Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 (edited) I can't wait to get started! Thanks Rob! Ah, it's all coming back to me - all that clingfilm! Enjoy! Edited March 22, 2010 by moisturefarmer Quote
ObiHahn[TK] Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 lol. yeah i have a helmet coming in the mail from him. i cant wait. So Eric, you decided to get RT-Mod armor? I think that's a good choice from what I've seen and read. Quote
Evolver79[TK] Posted September 6, 2010 Report Posted September 6, 2010 Just thought I would share my experience to date. After a lot researching thru this site, others, and conversations with my local Garrison members I decided to go w/ Rob's kit. I have not received the armor yet, but what I can say is his incredible communications. I sent him an email almost every other day asking questions and he always promptly answered them. He was never too busy. After reading this topic I am even more excited! I will post more when the armor arrives. Thanx Rob! Alex (My Bday present from my wife) Quote
SolderMaster Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Enjoy your build, Alex! I savored mine. Rob is an outstanding guy in every manner possible. Congrats on going with RT-MOD! Quote
Evolver79[TK] Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Enjoy your build, Alex! I savored mine. Rob is an outstanding guy in every manner possible. Congrats on going with RT-MOD! Thank you! Any info or pointers for building this kit? Quote
SolderMaster Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Everything went according to plan. The kit comes pretrimmed which is really nice. The helmet is also pre-assembled. Just take your time and have a blast. if you get stuck, we're all here to help! Quote
Axle Gatin Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) These look great! I've sent you an email and are kindly awaiting a reply, Rob. Can't wait to do business! I'm negotiating with Rob now to place an order! Edited September 21, 2010 by Axle Gatin Quote
Defiance7x13[TK] Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Look what came in the mail today!!! Now all I need to do is get my hands on a blaster and I will be 501st ready! Seriously if you have a giant head like I do, this is a great helmet! Its a little tight going on (tighter than my efx) but feels like it has more room inside of it. I could easily get some fans in there. Sadly I dont think I could ever fit into a AP, TM or Cap-W like most of you "Normies" out there. But after getting this helmet from Rob, Im ok with that. Quote
JimCem99[501st] Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Glad to hear it Carlos and it looks great! I won't get mine till about Thanksgiving; waiting sucks! Quote
Axle Gatin Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Looks great! Can't for mine to arrive! Quote
SuperTrooper Posted October 2, 2010 Report Posted October 2, 2010 Gang, this is a history thread. Feel free to create your own thread showing off your new goodies. Thanks Quote
am1sh2el3[501st] Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 From what I've read, this will be the best option for me too. 6'0" 250lbs. Can't wait til I have my money right to order! Quote
89Batman[TK] Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Looks like the earcaps have been upgraded. Quote
