Thank you very much!

This is very true! Walt has been super helpful sending pieces and giving us advice!

Thank you all for responding! I am currently testing a scrap piece with rustolium to see how it turns out. My armor is black ABS but it is too far gone to just polish. It got scratched up pretty bad in shipping and there was a glue mishap on the shins early on. So far the rustolium looks pretty good. I'm gonna do a few more coats and see what happens.

Hey got another question for you guys... I'm in the market for some Black Boots for my Shadow Trooper. I was looking online and stumbled upon ImperialBoots.com I was wondering if these boots were any good and if so, are they in a men's size? I wear a size 10 in women's and size 8 in mens... want to make sure I'm getting the right one. They don't have it listed on their website and if they do, I couldn't find it. Thanks! Nicolle

Don't know if you bought the WTF armor yet, but I am 6'1" and 180lbs and I'm having issues getting the thighs to fit me-I'm having to shim them. My friend is 6'2" and 250lbs and he can't fit into his armor very well we have to send his thighs back and get a larger mold.

How durable do you think the auto paint would be if scratched up? Obviously with cars the scratches can be buffed out.... I'm worried about cost but I also want this armor to be durable, Thank you for the reply!

Hello, Future TX here, got my armor a while ago and am considering getting it painted so it has a smooth and glossy finish. I was wondering what would be the best paint to use? I've been recommended to go to an auto body shop and get some pricing on it and the cheapest I found was $500 for the whole kit. If I were to do it myself, what is recommended? I want it looking as nice a possible! Thanks in advance! Nicolle

Do we know if there are any updates recently regarding when the Anovos kits will ship out? I'm considering ordering the TX kit myself but am concerned about how it will fit and what quality the kit will be.

Thank you so much for everyone's replies! You've been very helpful!

Hello Everyone! First off I just wanted to say how grateful I am to be starting my journey in the Spec Ops Detachment and that I'm excited to talk to so many of you! I have been doing research for several months and I am currently trying to find a good place to purchase a Shadow Trooper kit from and was wondering if any of you could recommend any good places? I know of ATA, Anovos, NE and RS Prop Masters. ATA has a 10 to 11 month wait time and I am currently waiting to hear back from RS and NE. Anovos isn't shipping anything out yet so I'm hesitant to purchase anything until I hear some reviews and I don't know how long it will take the kits to arrive. I would like to start working on the armor in the next two months at least but that is starting to seem like wishful thinking since everyone's wait time is almost a year. If anyone could offer any advice I'd really appreciate it! Thank you, Nicolle
