I'm finishing up the small details of my son's Clone trooper suit. I'm extremely happy with how it looks...All of the hard work paid off when I seen him fully suited for his 1st fitting..Please provided any feedback that will help me improve the suit. I just need to do his shoes and ammo belt. And some weathering.
ARMOR: I bought the armor from a member here on TDH. I originally bought the clone armor EPS II, but my son seen Cody on the Clone forum and it was a done deal. I bought the Cody accessories and started the project. Great customer service and communication was great. I bought this back in April, so getting a hold of the seller was not a problem...I can just imagine the demand for these around this time so getting communication might be a bit slow since he is pushing out these great suits for kids....2 thumbs way up for Kids Clone Armor
Helmet: This was part of the Kid Armor and when I bought the Cody package it included the visor and antennas. I bought some end caps for kitchen faucet and cut them to size to fit the aerators. I made holes so it will be better for the hot air to get out and not fog up his visor. They give the helmet a more professional look. I did stickers instead of the decals. I used pin stripes for the lines on the visor.
Under Suit: I did not want to spend an arm and a leg for Under Armor. I searched for days to find a cheap alternative.

Blaster: Its a Hasbro build your own Clone blaster (rex)...This thing is so sweet. You attached different parts to make a a DC-15 clone blaster...each time you add a part it makes a cool sound and after you add the part it makes a different sound. I spent about an hour taping off all of the blue parts so I can paint them orange. it was very tittious, but the results were stellar. This touch really adds to the suit.
