Stroker Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 To be fair, I'm sure they did that intentionally so the armor can be fitted to different statures. With most armors you need to adjust the chest/back straps to fit perfectly. Might have been,but it's next to impossible to do. It's has a rather large return. You can trim and trim and still not get chest and back to actually rest on the chest and back. MC was years ahead of everyone on the snowy and biker like 10 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertScout Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Who's kit is the biggest in the chest and back plate? My wife has an SC kit and I put it on and it looks.... well really small on me. Part of it may be because the straps where already cut so it may just sit to high on me, but if there was a larger kit I would be all about making another one for me.

KS is one of the bigger ones although it comes up short in the accuracy department. I have yet to see someone whose chest armor was too high though. Most people's chest armor sits too low, which pushes everything else in the costume down too far. Compare to the screen scout and you'll see what I mean.

Kosejonas Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 The only thing I always think of when I see that reference picture is that it looks like the Biker has neck seal? Any input on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bootlegger137 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 The only thing I always think of when I see that reference picture is that it looks like the Biker has neck seal? Any input on this? Apparently they did, but were worn under the flightsuit. The mannequin in the costume book was dressed wrongly. I think there are a couple of threads on the forum about it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 That is correct. The neck seal was worn under the flight suit. Since you can't see it, we don't require it Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
762s Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 this thread helped me stay away from a few armors, thanks! as of yet, i do not have an armor nailed down and ordered, although some pm's have been sent out to see if i can own a proper set. and i was just sitting here thinking the same thing as Kosejonas said above with the reference pick of neck .. so, there is a neck seal .. and this would be the same as a stormtroopers neck seal then? if so, i will have to put that on the "to get list" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dart Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 so, there is a neck seal .. and this would be the same as a stormtroopers neck seal then? if so, i will have to put that on the "to get list" Ok, so the deal with the neck seal is that it wasn't worn by all the scouts. Much to our chagrin, they weren't very consistent with what was worn, and this is an example. IF one was to wear a neck seal as a scout, you wouldn't wear a regular TK neck seal. The scout one had fewer ribs and no piping in the loops. That said, it's only ever seen once in the movies and none of the other scouts are wearing it. I honestly wouldn't bother with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Its not required on any of the CRLs and as far as we have been told the neck seals were worn under the flight suit so they wouldn't be visible anyway.
