hahaha... i hadn't looked at the list yet and was going to comment that i loved the jet pack and helmet... no wonder i loved the helmet :)

to this day that remains one of my favorite paintups, and i've done a bunch of them at this point.

on the servo note, i'm pretty sure i glued the RF into place. but it's an aluminum stalk and a screw on aluminum ear cap. i would have used Goop if i did, so you'll be able to pull the glue off. it will be tough pulling, but it will go and shouldn't damage anything.
 
I see a lot of bobamaker and wickedbeard stuff:(y)(y)your part list makes me drool!:love:love very nice indeed! I have no doubt thats worth every penny of that 4 grand:eek::eek::D:D I bet you needed all those beers in the background to put up with the flack you got from your GF/Wife after she realized how much that costume was costing;););)

I needed all the beer in the background as well as all the Captain Morgain bottles. I tend to make shrines to things that inspire me - beer, Captain Morgan and Fett.
 
Very nice bro! All top shelf stuff! (Beer and Captain Morgan included.:D)
It is fun to see all the hard work come together.
 
Looks good! The manny has a giant neck though LOL

That's no manny...that's me baby!!!

Yeah...I cant get the heavy aluminum bucket to sit right. I'm waiting for a Sgt. Fang from Rogue Studios that should look better due to the weight. Besides it will be much lighter for trooping.

I'm not a big fan of the posable mannequins. My TK's mannequin will not be posable.
 
what's funny is that the aluminum helmets are big, so you'd think the neck would look stubby! that was one of the main reasons i got rid of it... i was too small for it.
