Theneedleslinger138 Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Hey there pathfinders! My name is dave. Just moved to Albuquerque, in need of a new project. Decided to be a biker scout. The coolest of all the imperial troops! Step one for me is the helmet. Picked up a kropsirkel bucket kit last night. And got my eyes on a SC armor kit. Any problems with that kit? I bought an eBay TK a few years back that was completely wrong, don't wanna make the same mistakes again, and have a $1100 paper weight haha. Hoping to meet some guys from the dewback ridge garrison here in ABQ too. Any other advice on a kit would be appreciated. Thanks Quote

BikerScout007 Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 KS helmet and SC armor is a good combo. You'll be just fine Quote

Even stuff you see people using here. You may find out that what was an easy build for someone else could be a nightmare for you. For example, I've heard that the popular bucket kits have some tricks to them to get 'em looking good. I spent a tiny bit more and bought an Altmann helmet that was already assembled. I just had to swap a couple parts out (maybe 30 min work) and it became Lancer approved. Sorry about your TK experience. I don't think I had $1100 in my Sandtrooper costume, from head to toe! Quote
Theneedleslinger138 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Posted April 19, 2017 i turned it into sandtrooper, due to oversized helmet lookong better on the pauldron, and different colors of ABS Quote
gmrhodes13 Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Hello and welcome, good luck with the build, SC is a nice kit to work with Quote
