Those look amazing, Turo. From the pics, it doesn't look like you dye both sides of the leather (or the edges even). Any particular reason? I might get a set if I can set some funds aside before the list closes! Joren Fett

Hey All, Great piece, SingleSeat! I've searced high and low for the ARENA jet pack vent, but no luck. Does anyone have a lead or know who can make an accurate one? I'd gladly pay twice as much for the arena vent. Thanks in advance! Joren Fett

Got my JD cod armor in the mail last week, and I can't wait to get to work on it. Great work, as always, JD. Thumbs up to Seeker, too... for sharing his sculpt of the piece with all of us through JD. :thumbsup: Joren Fett

Yeah... those are some straight up pieces of sh*t. I received two pairs of SFP gloves in a Jango spare parts lot that I bought a couple of years ago, and even Rubies could have designed a better glove. I still have 'em if anyone's interested. :lol: One gray pair, one blue pair. Joren Fett

Fershizzle my nizzle. Cruzer's speaking my language. haha. :)

The "triangle" pieces on mine are 3/16 inch thick, which looks good to me. Just refer to the reference pics you like, and do what works best for you. Joren Fett

Great advice, Cruzer. Also, make sure your stalk movement is somewhat stiff OR have a way of securing it in the upright position. I'm not speaking from personal experience, but I'm sure anyone who has a moving stalk will agree. You don't want it falling down everytime your head tilts forward...

Hey tk-938, They stopped making Federal Blue about two years ago. I remember searching everywhere for it before finally calling Rustoleum to confirm. Their replacement colors aren't quite the same, so you'll have to find a suitable alternative. Try various "slate," "country," and...

Okay, okay... for some reason I thought you put that one together yourself. Anyway, thanks for the reply. At least I'll know to stop bugging you about it now. haha. :) I'll try to track down Bountys Haunted (or is it Hunted?). Meanwhile, if anyone knows where to find those two parts, please...

Hey SEEKER, Can't you tell me where you got those two parts... or at least what they are, so I can look for them myself? Thanks again and happy holidays! Joren Fett

Parts for Arena (Stubby) Jetpack Hi All, I'm back to work on my arena jet pack, and I'm still having trouble finding two key parts: 1) The angled connectors that attach the thruster cones to the bottom of the pack. 2) The dome-shaped exhaust vent at the bottom center of the pack. Below is...

For those of us who can't afford a sweet exhaust setup like this, how about we just toss a block of dry ice into our jet packs and make vents in all the right places? Sounds kind of silly, but it might work! :p Joren Fett

Thanks for the replies. I knew it was planned to dress alike (obviously) but I assumed they'd made the costumes themselves. That's why I was so amazed... not only great costumes, but they matched down to the last detail... as if they were made at the same time by the same person. Now I see that...

I just found this 8 month old thread. WOW! When did you guys find time to make such awesome Starship Troopers outfits... let alone coordinate 4 matching outfits?! You guys amaze me. I hope to join some of you at a con one of these days. I'm sure the people you go with make all the...

From what I've heard, it's best to avoid Star Fortress. I know better than to have any firsthand experience with them, but just ask anyone here who's dealt with them. Joren Fett
