A truly amazing example of not just a legacy kit but any kit. I think I'm going to do a legacy kit next!

Much as I hate to be an echo, I'm still awake after working third shift last night, so I can't think of anything to say other than great work.  I'll come back after sleeping to comment more fully and/or specifically ;D.

Ben: What do we do now? Lob a baradium missile at it?
Luke: Do we have a baradium missile?
Ben: Sorry, Uncle Han said it was always a good idea to have one--
Luke: Your uncle isn't a jedi. I wish you'd remember that.

The only real issue at the moment is teh shoulder plates are a bit small for me and to make them "stretch" over the bicep armor they deform slightly. Ive already ordered a new set of TK bells from Jaiden Turr'n Verda and will be going back to modded TK bells. It's less work than the mods required on the Legacy shoulders.

Good job, Falin!

Of course, with those lights on your back plate, you should set them to flash and have a siren go off whenever you're backing up lol

Ok, so now that I've had some sleep...Nicely done! :P. I like the V2 Legacy helm better than the V1, as the narrower visor gives more of an enclosed look, fitting better with the heavily armored'ness of your kit. Nice attention to detail with the butt battle damage...didn't your buir ever teach you not to show your kama to the enemy? ;).

The reflectors and the lower back dets are nice touches, the former just because people love shiny stuff, and the latter to fill in what would otherwise have been dead space. I may have to steal one or both ideas ;D.

Ben: What do we do now? Lob a baradium missile at it?
Luke: Do we have a baradium missile?
Ben: Sorry, Uncle Han said it was always a good idea to have one--
Luke: Your uncle isn't a jedi. I wish you'd remember that.

Thanks.

The reflectors have kind of become my go to thing, especially being Assault Brigade, ie grunt infantry. It's a nod to real world military units and give the "friendlies" a reminder not to shoot me in the back lol. The thermal dets were an idea I got from Tassone... they are 2 for 1.00 air freshners. Rip out that nasty jelly stuff, glue the halves together, paint/weather attach. You're right about dead space too. With the Legacy backplate design and my kidney plate there is a large gap there where the MOLLE vest is exposed. I needed to hide it.

I am not sure if Thomas told you, but we had one of your legacy helmets on display at our Phonix ComiCon.  It is great to show people an alternative to the normal Boba/Jango helmets. I often referred to your kit if any one asked us about going legacy. Maybe one day we will have a legacy style Mando from Arizona. You pave the way sir :)

Awesome! I didn't know one was on display, I knew Mama-B bought one but I was thinking she'd be sporting it. Got any pix of it on the table?

I am thinking it was her helmet.  Let me look through all the pics people have posted to see if there is a photo of the helmet in the display case.
