Would this work for a cheap RO TK?

Hello. I am new to the board, and just bought this armor for display. It says it is gel coat fiberglass. I got mine for 350.

Did I just waste my money? Is there an alternative if I did? Please inform me.

I guess if it's not a scam it's fine, but because most sellers sell recast armor, I'd reccomend getting your money back.

It just came.

 Are there any tell-tale signs of a recast on this?

Bump. Do I need to return this?

A recast for sure, but also notice that there are absolutely NO return edges anywhere.  Best to get a refund and go for a full (with helmet) kit like AM 2.0, ATA or the like.  Not that much more money, and a MUCH better kit.

If you're wanting a Rogue One kit there's only 1 seller right now.  If you're going to convert it's a lot of work to do and I don't think this would be a very good start point.

I actually bought a kit just like this on eBay as my first kit before I found out about the FISD. It is probably not the best way to go. I am going to sell it and get some ATA. It looks ok once it’s put together, but it’s overpriced for the armor that it is. Selling it for another, better kit would be the best way to go.
