body size and armor ?


Recommended Posts

hi. im looking for tk stormtrooper armor that is the most correct and would allow me get elite status. I have thought about te and fx lite .everyone's idea of what a larger person is varies. so writing size,height and weight might help direct me to the right armor. so here it goes and no im not looking for a date lol. im 5'8" tall. 224 lbs .48 inch chest. 41 inch waist. 31.1/2 inseam. kinda stocky like a ex jock or older cop with a little bit of gut, but only a little. ok any ideas on what may fit my body type with those goals in mind.

thank you for your help

Well, I am 5'9" 220lb and fairly close to your measurments. My recommendation is RT-Mod. The parts are slightly larger than FX and in my opinion a more accurate fan sculpt. The helmet is the correct size and more idealized vice asymmetrical. I did have to shim the thighs, there was about a 1 inch gap also need a shim on the ab plate and that was about 1 1/2 gap on each side.

You can get elite status with any of the kits. The only thing that you can not get elite with is the FX bucket. The elite really comes in the construction.

 

I'm far from an expert on what works on what body type best. At 5'-8" I would say you would not want FX.
