  1. Great work and sharp details Greedo. Looking forward to see more pics of. BTW you've got a PM.
  2. Ward the pic of the Inner Thigh (Right) armor piece looks promising and > accurate than the existing FX piece. Looking forward to see the rest of the pictures of the Upper Thigh armor for both legs. I'm just wondering how much is the coverage in between the front and back of your AM abdomen plates that you've shown : before a gap can be seen. This is relation to a trooper's waist size - will it cover well for troopers who have 34" to 35" waist?
  3. Gian I *Salute* and congratulate you on your MEPD Deployment. You have superior prop making skills esp. your scratch built T-21 and your reworked Backpack, which is very well done. BTW what material are you referring to by "forex" in your T-21 reference pics? To me, forex sounds like foreign exchange!
  4. Congratulations bro, you've reaped the good fruits of your time and efforts. Make the Empire proud!
  5. Oh man the trailer ROCKS!!!! Great to see the BFGs in shooting action by the Empire's finest!
  6. Sorry to hear about that Jay and thank you for service as the Executive Officer to the MEPD Detachment. Hope things work out for you offline.
  7. I had mine fabricated (with help of friends who runs an engineering shop) using thin Hollow Steel pipes/tubes in order to match the Vintage Boy Scout's Backpack. Pictures will be posted soon. Its construction was based on the excellent Visual Guide in Field Pack Build From the Garage of Scootch
  8. Hi Rolf, Like to know how did you put these parts together on your MH/SB Backpack (yes I'll be embarking on mine in due time after the rest of my parts have reached me safely ) : 1. Mortar Tube Any pics to show how you assembled this to right side of your Backpack Seed Trays / Frame? Also what is the exact lenght in Inches/cm of your "Mortar" Tube before adding the End Caps? 2. Exhaust Port Any pics taken when you assembled this part? 3. Backpack Straps What are the materials did you use and how did you attach them to your Backpack frame? Thanks bro
  9. Thanks for sharing dutchy looks like you're on the roll again!
  10. Cool pictures. Thanks for sharing Todd!
  11. FFWD 30 years from now, we'll have TD-252's (Private) Sandtrooper Museum on Planet Earth, where you can find the complete range of Screen Accurate Sandtrooper Replica props and Paraphrenalia ever produced.
  12. Roger to that bro. 10 to 12 hours or even longer - you know that I have pretty limited spare time in hand. <_< Maybe I'll start off by correcting the miniature, but screen accurate Marmit 12" "Move Along" Sandtrooper Backpack that I've in hand as practise first? Agree on the most accurate part. The parts that I've sourced locally to complete my Sandtrooper Backpack build are the Backpack Frame, Toilet Cistern Syphon Unit, PVC pipe as the Mortar and CLOROX disinfecting Wipes Cannisters. Now need to source for the right type of Backpack strap. I'm progressing slowly but steadily towards that direction bro.
  13. Thank you for sharing from your experiences bro. I guess that its going to take me one full weekend to get my first one done!
  14. Thanks for sharing Rolf - great collection! Have you completed your collection, or there are a some more pouches out there that will be added to your collection?
  15. NoHumorMan - you mean you're making our own Sandtrooper helmet using ABS sheets? That's cool man!
  16. Rolf may I ask how long did it take you to put everything together : from getting the package to trimming to assembly? It won't be long before I get my parts to carry on with this phase of my MEPD project.
  17. Thanks for sharing the YouTube links RoCKo - I'll view them when I get home. Have wanted to see TE in action.
  18. Thanks for sharing your new TE2 armor acquisition with us bro. When you mentioned that they "kept it in the Danish duty/Told/Tax fee for 3 days" does that mean you have to pay for some Custom Duty before you can get your package?
  19. TM do we foresee a new generation of long lasting durable armor in the years to come? This winning combination of screen accuracy and flexibility will be its endearing hallmark. I wonder if 1.5mm is the optimum thickness and is this plastic a type of Styrene with heavy rubber contents to give its extra-ordinary flexibility?
  20. Looks like you've a great time and thanks for sharing the pics of the awesome Man Cave with us.
  21. I used the same canvas material as my belt for mine. But like Mike said you could use some strapping underneath to join the front & back pieces of your chest armor. Here is a reference pic from www.looksirdroids.com : that indicated "Vaccuformed ribbed straps were added over the shoulder of the stormtrooper armor to help hide the connection of the chest and back plate. The sandtrooper lacks these ribbed straps.***."
  22. Mike - your website is down again. I clicked onto the url and received this error message : "The webpage "www.tk1536.com" cannot be found DNS error occurred. Server cannot be found. The link may be broken."
  23. Congratulations on your MEPD Deployment Morten! Like the "less is more" weathering approach on your TD armor.
