My biggest concern is knowing where to trim

I'm waiting on my KS, so I'll be watching this closely

.....best quote ever..... (I even know some women that act the same way!.... shhhhhhhh!)

I found PERFECT Boots at Walmart...... For Women and Kids....... The MEN'S version of the exact same boot has a black sole. Back to looking

Figured as much.... Was thinking more of a secondary undersuit in red or white for Xmas and such, so not really for approval.... In which case in wouldn't really matter.... Aaaand I answered my own question

So I know that the flightsuit is necessary, but I'm curious, as with a Mando build, is a 2 piece scrub acceptable? I'm guessing no, but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Hello from Ottawa Vod! Also a UM MMCC (almost done) and all working on a scout.... I'm 6'2 220.... Pretty sure you will be fine, I'm not very far along, but I'm here if you need help/questions!

Lol, didn't even realize at first it was you Luc, I got all excited when I read "Ottawa"

Tried YouTube with no luck yet, and I'll have the do some digging, as my phone isn't letting you use the search option on the forums for some reason, but thanks!

I'm going with the KS, but I'm curious if there are any trimming guidelines or tutorial anyone has for a KS, I'm trying to poke around on my phone, but it seems to have issues with the site sometimes

Hey Luc! Also new, AND from Ottawa, (kanata) I'm in the process of figuring stuff out for myself! Hope to work with you and troop with you and your wife in the future!

Canadian pathfinders! I would also try your local Value Village, and salvation army, I found both my Mando boots and Jedi boots for the wife, super cheap! That's where I'll look for mine, or my closet and cross my fingers

From the looks of it, (the situation, not your helmet chunk, looks great) I'll probably be going with the KS helmet due to price, sizing should be fine from what I've seen. Thanks all for the feedback, I look forward to bugging you with more questions later!

Thank you all! Every little bit helps

and Who/what is MC? MonCal ? Far Away Creations? I get lost on the abbreviations sometimes, I think I'v checked it out, but now I'm not sure.... And anyone with an SC Helmet and a 23inch head? I hear they are tight, and I looked at the measurements, but not sure how it ACTUALLY fits, so just looking for peoples personal "fit"

lol, I'v been saying that I'd like a Kit and to do the work myself, not a pre finished helmet. I'll head on over to the armory section and poke around see what I can see.... but i'm pretty sure I know I want a kit helmet, just not sure who's got the best cost for said item, especially with the Us/CDN exchange and shipping. Still waiting to hear back from Krop if they have a KIT available for their helmet, and not just the finished one.

Thanks Mr. Bond..... 007.... nvrmind. I shall look him up on here... may I also ask, what is the "Average" price of helmet kits? I understand there will be differences depending on maker, quality, accuracy, but can you gimme a ballpark-ish idea of what helmet kits generally run at?

Greetings all! Bugz from Canada, ready to get my scout on! Been in love with the scouts since I first saw them on the big screen as a child, and had one of the original speeder bike toys, with the "explosion" button behind the seat (you older guys must remember how amazing that toy was) I have been lucky enough to have a wife and mother, who have seen fit to bless me with the gift of a helmet for X-mas! TK or TB... I think the choice is clear, but I'm having issues.... i'm hoping I can get some help, or some directions from you vet's. I have a larger sized head 7 3/4 so I'm assuming the SC bucket is out as I have heard they run small (but their armour is amazing)... so next I e-mailed Krop..... 330$USD for a completed helmet... blows my mind, is that too much? (seems like it) and I would much rather have a kit helmet that I could work on and put together myself, but they didn't seem to have that option? I have heard Altmans, but haven't found any info, prices, contact, (maybe I haven't looked in the right place, or hard enough?) What are some of my options here? I'm not planning on getting this AT Christmas obviously due to how long it takes), but the women in my life would at least like to present me with a RECEIPT or invoice for XMas....... Help me out here brothers and sisters, I'm eager to get this new project underway as my Mandolorian is currently sitting on a shelf waiting for some softs to get finished, and the cold weather up here means I have plenty of time to work on stuff. Look forward to your responses Cheers! ~Bugz
