Weibes, Thanks. I think I will go that route. I was going to get a set off the legion board but was afraid of shimming and making it look bad. I will either try to TE or wait for TE2. I think I am on the list but am not very patient, especially since I have the $$ right now. Guess I will just see how it pans out. BTW where di you get your TE. Thanks again. John

Hello everyone, I guess I did some things backwards. I just found this after posting in other threads and PMd many of you. Thanks for all your valuable tips and help. I am John Tharp, have been in the USAF for 21 years and am soon retiring to Texas. Most of my family lives near Houston so Star Garrison here I come. I have a finished EP3clone, thus the TC-4995. I really wanted to make a TD since I was a kid and got a little side tracked with the clone. I have started my pack and have a BFG, still trying to find the right suit for armor. Thanks for already making me feel welcomed. I can't wait to get everything together so I can fully join your ranks. John

Guys, I need some sound advice on how to further my TD dream along. I have had different advice about my size and armor types. I am 5'11" and 200lbs, pretty evenly distributed. I do have fairly skinny legs with a 36" waist. With that being said would I be able to fit into TE/TE2 armor, without a lot of shimming and make it look like crap? How about AP, RT-MOD or FX. I would really like stay away from FX since that seems to be a starter set that most people upgrade from. I would really like to stay as close to screen acurates as I can get with the limitation of my size. Thank so much in advance for all the help.

Put me on the list too, please.
