TK9477 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 First, thanks for your input to my previous thread it's obvious that TM RULES!!! I take on board about the comments about RT-mod but I'm willing to take the risk. I've been in touch with Troopermaster but as I'm still a bit of a 'Peter Dringo - he no-speaka-da-lingo', I'm not sure of the variations that he does!! He says he does full kits, fully assembled kits for trooping or 100% accurate ANH replica suits are available... TM wearers out there - which one do I want - I just want to look the biz while trooping and get up to centurion Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 You can go centurion with any maker really, and any TM version. I have the 2 mm version for example. It's more about personal preference. I like the ruggedness of my 2mm. I can kick it around on the floor without risk of breaking it. But I think you can do that with all the TM versions. It's high quality stuff! Quote
firebladejedi[TK] Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 2mm for a smart trooping costume - 1mm for an authentic reproduction. Quote
ctankep Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 I am kicking around my 1mm and it can take the stress of some extreme trooping for hours at a time without any problem. I am currently savin up money, if i decide to go TK or TD again i will buy the 2mm TM suit thou. So i can feel more safe since i troop as much as i do. Quote
ObiHahn[TK] Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 1mm TM holds up to trooping just fine if you ask me. But ymmv. Quote
SW1 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 I find the the 2mm capped gloss TM is best suited for trooping more robust , i find my 1mm TM is more prone for cracks or spilts due to the origanl straping on the brackets where the screws are a lot of presure on those parts theres no two ways about it it will split at some point , when trooping out comes the gaffa tape but hay thats what they did on the origanls , so if hardcore trooping go for the 2mm TM , and if for light trooping or display with out a doudt 1mm TM Quote
brutalmagic[TK] Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 I am going through the exact same dilemma, what are peoples thoughts on the 1.5mm? Quote
SW1 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Hi Rob how you doing mate ? , i could not tell you on the 1.5 mm TM suits never had one ,i only have the 2mm and 1mm , i know Mark (firebladejedi) had one i think give him a shout and iam preety much think Dan (R2DAN) has to, hope that helps mate Quote
