Droidseller_77 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Hey all, Quick question... I am going to go with MC armor and MC fiberglass helmet. Other then modifications to size the armor to fit me, will i have to do any other modifications to the armor or helmet to reach 501st approval or lancer approval? Anything you can think of would help! Much Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 MC armour and MLC Helmet should be good enough for Lancer out of the box... But the main thing about Lancer is the fit and finish of the overall costume. So nothing is guaranteed. If you've got a decent fence... I'll sit right on it! hehehhehe.

Droidseller_77 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Thanks Rob, Placed my order! Now the wait begins, A RIDICULOUS WAIT... 20 weeks! 20 weeks + = Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwattsup Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Thanks Rob, Placed my order! Now the wait begins, A RIDICULOUS WAIT... 20 weeks! 20 weeks + = Scott Don't bank on 20. Its probably going to be a full 6 months. MC is notorious for this kind of thing. Your equation is probably going to look more like this: 20 Weeks + [ x x ] + :6: = :pint1: Trust me. I'm past "16 to 18 weeks" right now. But luckily I'm in no hurry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droidseller_77 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Jim & Barry, Most impressive young troopers! Is that equation a little algebra humor? ... Square, cube or pi ??? Good thing i'm in no rush either. I would probably put a TK blaster to my head. Good thing is, the wait gives you plenty of time to build your vest, bund, boots, undersuit... A new and more powerful Death Star. S- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forward thinking is always a plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwattsup Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Keith, your best bet is to contact Cal and Kathy from MC/Far Away Creations. Their e-mail is chance_cal@hotmail.com. Just double check (in other threads) that they're armor is right for your body type. It's the smallest, but most accurate armor out there. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
