Jakebullet[TK] Posted April 7, 2019 Report Posted April 7, 2019 Hi guys, I'm about to put my order in for my first kit from RWA, an ANH Stunt TK, aiming for Centurion, not sure which to go with though, what's the pros and cons of each thickness? Thanks Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk Quote
themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted April 8, 2019 Report Posted April 8, 2019 My preference would be 1.5. Bit more flex than 2mm so should be a tiny bit more comfortable and crack less (less is relative btw they all crack after a while). It will also have more detail and be easier to cut when assembling. I find Capped too white for my taste and doesn't look right. 1 Quote
CableGuy[Admin] Posted April 8, 2019 Report Posted April 8, 2019 I’d second Chris for the above reasons. :-)Dan Quote
Jakebullet[TK] Posted April 8, 2019 Author Report Posted April 8, 2019 Cheers guys, I've gone with 1.5 mm Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk 3 Quote
Ripper_L[Admin] Posted April 8, 2019 Report Posted April 8, 2019 looking forward to that build thread! The capped ABS is really glossy. Most other troopers have more of a creamy off-white look. 1 Quote
MaskedVengeance[Staff] Posted November 28, 2019 Report Posted November 28, 2019 I’m a little late to this thread, but I found this discussion of thickness differences interesting, and may influence my decision. I’ve been planning on pulling the trigger on an ATA TK kit which is 2mm. What kind of small details may be lacking on this type of armor which would be present on a thinner kit?I’m not terribly worried about cracks over the long run, since I won’t be attending a large number of troops, and I plan on removing most of the return edges on the way to Centurion status. Is this mindset misplaced?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

You will be more than pleased with a kit from ATA, Caleb. Nice clean lines/details, superb quality and fantastic customer service. Although the 2mm thickness can be slightly more difficult to work with, it will last for many, many years and is well worth it IMO. Quote
