Reno_Geek Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 Interesting. If they actually use a hard hat liner similar to what's in the canon helmets I'd wear it as is, but as they've clearly admitted the one they supply is junk. Why Anovos why They said it was out of their hands. Part of the licensing they had to abide by to be able to produce the helmets. 1 Quote
Cowboy Kylo[501st] Posted March 8, 2018 Report Posted March 8, 2018 Yeah I'm torn on the hard hat liner. Guys have any good alternatives for padding. Seems like it would take a lot of padding to fill that bucket.Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Quote

Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Based on the idea I saw in Ruthar's FOTK build thread I purchased a motorcycle half helmet liner for mine, it fits inside the helmet very well, it's comfortable, allows for some ventilation since it's not a solid liner, puts my eyes at the proper level, and prevents the helmet from moving around on my head. This one is a Scorpion EXO-C110 KwickWick liner in Large for reference (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JDQ3P18/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).

I have Motorcycle and skateboard helmets. When there's excessive shaking but movement for ventilation I prefer padding, when in costume when a majority of time I'm just standing there I prefer a liner, better ventilation IMO. 1 Quote
Cowboy Kylo[501st] Posted March 8, 2018 Report Posted March 8, 2018 Yeah I feel a little bobblehead like with the hard hat liner, maybe I will get some padding and try it. I like to have options. Thanks guysSent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk 1 Quote

Ordered one of these yesterday so I'll have it ready when/if the kits ever show up. It was only $16 with free shipping. Thanks for the link! 1 Quote
bear0902[501st] Posted March 22, 2018 Report Posted March 22, 2018 Has anyone gotten more information yet we are very close to those shipping emails being sent out have they started early or nothing yet ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Peregrinus Posted March 22, 2018 Report Posted March 22, 2018 Nothing yet. We've got through June for them to miss this window. They've got the soft goods that ship with the Standard kit approved already, as far as I know, and on-site. So it pretty much all hinges on Disney not giving any downchecks on the armor itself. Quote

Wow an I wasted money on that part and could have used it for something else lol darn I wish I understood! lol manSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Reno_Geek Posted March 23, 2018 Report Posted March 23, 2018 From what I was told by Anovos at the cons everything but the under suit is included. Quote
Peregrinus Posted March 23, 2018 Report Posted March 23, 2018 Standard line kit includes gaskets, belt, and belt pouches. Unknown at this time if the belt is in kit form and/or includes all necessary layers. Does not include neck seal, undersuit, gloves, or boots. I never looked at the Premiere line version to see what it comes with... Quote
FN1313[TK] Posted March 24, 2018 Report Posted March 24, 2018 Correct no undersuit or neck seal. That being said if the gaskets are rubber like the original suits you’re going to die of heat. I went with Geeky Pink’s gaskets, neck seal, and harness. Quote

merkava74[TK] Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 So, the delivery window is supposed to be here. Has anyone received any news from Anovos? Those who ordered earlier? Quote
Peregrinus Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 Still nothing since their last update. Quote
Reno_Geek Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 Any idea on what early is? I ordered late November 2016. Quote
Peregrinus Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 When one ordered doesn't have much bearing on when one's order is shipped. They often go in regional batches. I have seen a nonzero amount of bitching in the past from people who had been waiting years for something and someone who had only just ordered a few weeks prior got theirs in the first round of shipments. 1 Quote
Harbinger[IPM] Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 I believe they first went on sale in June/July ‘16. I ordered mine about the same time as you did though. 1 Quote

I have seen a nonzero amount of bitching in the past from people who had been waiting years for something and someone who had only just ordered a few weeks prior got theirs in the first round of shipments. This was the order of shipment according to them:“These kits will begin shipping Spring 2018 (starting as early as March 20th) and continue shipping through Summer 2018 (ending September 21st). We ship orders in the order in which they were placed and will notify you by email to pay for your shipping charges when your order is next on deck.” Quote
