New Armor... Finally

Post by TK280 »

Hello all, hope everyone is well,

Been quite awhile since I've seen anyone or even thought about Trooping in any form, but I saved a few pennies and decided to pick up some armor :D.
I know it's kinda on the light side, but I'd like to have it complete for WizWorld, that is if y'all will have me... Excuse the messy garage.

Lol, at first glance of the image, I thought that was you in the armor!! The mannequin has a very realistic skin tone!! Lol. I look forward to watching your progress. Welcome back. Let us know if you need any help. :)

What's up Dan! You are a dog to get a hold of! I called your PD and left several messages for you.
Looking forward to seeing you in armor again! Be safe!
And don't forget to leave your armor in the house this time! You don't want that melted plastic mess again that destroyed your TK.

This is sick. I will watch this closely because it is such badass armor!
Many bothans died to bring you this post...the tearing of ligaments and almost the loss of a TK's finger...
