Geralddishman123 Posted March 21, 2018 Report Posted March 21, 2018 Hello there! I am brand new and need a bit of help. Lol! My daughter is a huge Captain Phasma fan and therefore I want to help her by building a suit of Phasma armor with her. Obviously, step one, HOW CAN I GET JIM'S PHASMA ARMOR??? LOL!! From what i have read, his is what I need to start with? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Have a great day! The Dishman Quote
lucnak[TK] Posted March 21, 2018 Report Posted March 21, 2018 Hi Gerald, Jim's contact info is here: I know KB Props makes a kit as well. Are you looking to build the TFA or TLJ version? Quote
Geralddishman123 Posted March 21, 2018 Author Report Posted March 21, 2018 Thank you for your quick response! Wow! That's a good question! Sorry for being so ignorant about this but...do you think there is one I SHOULD be building versus the other? I was leaning towards TFA though... Quote
Harbinger[IPM] Posted March 21, 2018 Report Posted March 21, 2018 TFA will be easier to build as the finish isn't mirrored but slightly dingy, and parts have been around for a couple years so more vendors and the kinks have been worked out for the most part. 2 Quote
Geralddishman123 Posted March 21, 2018 Author Report Posted March 21, 2018 Makes perfect sense! Thank you so much!!! Quote
battlebroad Posted March 25, 2018 Report Posted March 25, 2018 Fingers!TFA fingers are a fully covered tube which makes grasping things, and bending the fingers difficult.TLJ fingers are a plate that goes on the back of each finger joint.TFA is modeled after C3-PO fingersTLJ looks more like medieval armor.Just something I thought you’d like to know Quote
Harbinger[IPM] Posted March 26, 2018 Report Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) As mentioned in other threads, spats and TD (or lack thereof) are other differences, FWIW. Cod may be different as well (it is on the regular FOTKs). Edited March 26, 2018 by Harbinger Quote
Geralddishman123 Posted March 27, 2018 Author Report Posted March 27, 2018 Thank you so very much for this bit of info!!! I have reachedout to 2 different armor vendors and got prices! It is a little more than I expected but totally understand and just need to save up a few more dollars! Does anyone have any pro's or con's between Jim's Phasma armor and KB props? If I am "out of bounds" with this question I definitely do not want to be. I am new and am not sure what I can and can't say or ask. Thank you all for your help! The Dishman Quote
