justjoseph63[Staff] Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Posted May 16, 2015 I wish I had known about his post(s) during my build! I thought I looked everywhere, but apparently not. (Mine is not as fancy, but hopefully it will do for now!) Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted May 16, 2015 Report Posted May 16, 2015 I did some research. You may want to add 2 more speed rivets for the belt; one on each endThere are 3 of them on the belt. Each end, and one in the middle. 1 Quote

TK_Junebug Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 In the same spirit, i've always found these diagrams by Billhag extremely handy for new comers. Thanks for the awesome visual. I'm going to print these up and post them in my work station. I'm starting to get supplies together for the upcoming Anovos kit I ordered yesterday. I am geeked to say the least. Quote

sancer7d7 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 The ridges in the efx helmet, how do we know that the trooper way in the back didn't have a shuckster helmet In the movie??? Why so serious? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
retrofire Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 Great list! Thank you so much for posting this. It's giving me something to do while I'm in the dreaded armor wait period. Does anyone know where I can find the premade TD clips? Thanks! Peter 1 Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted August 1, 2015 Author Report Posted August 1, 2015 Peter, I would suggest getting in touch with Evilboy for the TD clips. I believe he has a thread under the Ongoing items for sale thread. Quote
retrofire Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 Peter, I would suggest getting in touch with Evilboy for the TD clips. I believe he has a thread under the Ongoing items for sale thread. Thanks very much! I'll shoot him a PM. Have a great evening! Quote
Xscuba51 Posted August 14, 2015 Report Posted August 14, 2015 This is amazing. I've been doing some research and making nites for whenever I take the step and begin on my TK armor. Thank you!! Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted August 14, 2015 Author Report Posted August 14, 2015 Glad it helped you out, Scott! Quote
wingnut65[Staff] Posted August 14, 2015 Report Posted August 14, 2015 My BBB has arrived and now I am making sure I have what I need and getting what I don't. This list is perfect! Thanks for putting it together, Joseph! I'm heading to JoAnn's this weekend with a stack of 50% off coupons. I know, one per transaction, so there will be a few trips to the car... Quote
DeadMan Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 thanks very much for this list, it's super helpful. can anyone suggest a good undersuit to buy? all i seem to come across are ones for bikers, and are priced quite high for what you get. if i have to dish out $200 for underroos, then so be it, but it just seems like there could be cheaper options.

Crespoda Posted August 21, 2015 Report Posted August 21, 2015 There wouldn't happen to be a video tutorial on assembling the armor kit is there? Quote
Sonnenschein Posted August 21, 2015 Report Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) Check trooperbay.com for videos. But there many excellent build threads here on this board. But let's not water this thread down Edited August 21, 2015 by Sonnenschein 1 Quote
MechaPumpkin[TK] Posted September 15, 2015 Report Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) There is some debate between French Blue and Mediterranean Blue (Humbrol #48) for the tube stripes. French Blue, however, seems to be the consensus for the ab plate buttons. I think it might be best for you to list both and let people decide. Your list could be taken as objectively definitive, when some things are subjective choices. It is often suggested that neither colour is the original/quite right. Here's a Billhag image that appears to be newer than the one most often referenced. I used the Mediterranean Blue on my tube stripes, but it's definitely a personal choice. I just wanted to point this out, as it might save some newer recruits the confusion I suffered, when trying to decide. Edited July 29, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photo updated 2 Quote
