SC Helmet Assembly Needed
BikerScout007 replied to Kosejonas's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
This is one of the most requested things in the forum and unfortunately we don't have one yet. But there are several threads where people post photos of different stages of the build. I know that's not that easy to pare through but it's better than nothing. You may want to reach out to SC and see if they have instructions they can send you. There isn't a whole lot to it but you definitely don't want to make a mistake.- 4 replies

I need some help with these pouches.
BikerScout007 replied to TB-1599's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout HQ
They seem to be single layered based off the photos, but we don't know what the exact material was used to make them They are sewn on in the film, but for Lancer we just ask that they have "the appearance" of being attached to the bund. Which means you can velcro them to the bund, or velcro them to the bund AND the chest armor if that helps. -

You can see the tab on that picture of the Scout I posted above. Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk -

Pouches look good. There is supposed to be a tab that is sewn to the back of the pouch that attaches to the bund. Either by sewing it to the bund or use velcro Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk -
Attaching the drop box straps to the belt
BikerScout007 replied to Greedo's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
I used some heavy duty elastic for that. Stuff that looked like an Ace bandage. It seems very thin and elasticy in the movie. Not like the cotton webbing for the belt. -
Attaching the drop box straps to the belt
BikerScout007 replied to Greedo's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
I wish I had a picture but I'm at work. Basically the strap connects from the back, passes through the dropbox, and then goes into the center piece on the belt. The piece is then FOLDED at a roughly 90 degree angle and then threaded back out of the center piece. It's fed through the other dropbox and then finally attached to the back on the other side. I hope that makes sense -

BikerScout007 replied to Greedo's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
If you want screen accurate it is one strap all the way through, with the ends connected to the belt in the back! How you do it is up to you, as the connection is hidden by the TD -
Funny enough we are addressing the pouches right now We took away the requirement for no stitching on the velcro attachment piece, but we do want Lancer applicants to keep the stitching very light. It should not be obvious from a distance, as in the film. The CRL is referring only to the edge of the pouches themselves: "There is no visible external edge stitching on the cod or pouch flaps."

SC helmet eyepice/lense template
BikerScout007 replied to JBar's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
You would be correct in thinking that. It's my one real pet peeve about the SC helmet, other than its smaller size. The better looking ones are the ones where the scout cut the visor area bigger. As for ideas how to do it, check this thread out: http://forum.bikersc...l=&fromsearch=1 -
Studio Creations typical wait times?
BikerScout007 replied to TB-1599's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout Armor/Helmet
SC is probably the fastest in the business. You won't be waiting long! -
Magnets, my boy, magnets! My KS seemed to stay open pretty well on its own. I think this was due to the fact that the "bolts" were rivets and thus the two pieces of plastic are very close together, causing enough friction for it to not fall down My RS Props lid has ridges on the helmet and faceplate that allow it to "lock" in place. You actually have to apply a modicum of force to close the faceplate. But magnets are probably your best bet

BikerScout007 replied to TB-1599's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout HQ
The chest piece thing is another issue but one that most of us can't really rectify other than to cut the shoulder straps shorter. Many of the armor makers make the chest pieces too big. I have SC armor and it is definitely guilty of this. The pouches of the movie scouts seem to start at the outer edge of the armor. We tend to line ours up with the bund ribs. But with the film scouts, the pouches don't even touch the outer ribs because of where they sit. And their smaller size. -

BikerScout007 replied to TB-1599's topic in ROTJ Biker Scout HQ
Totally making sense and that's probably a good idea. Although I would be interested to see how pouches with your original measurements came out -
