Mojofarian[501st] Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 So for right now I'm purchasing a few of the items to get started.. boots, gloves, yugo ammo pouches, viet ammo punches, hoses etc... I'm not sure if I want to buy a kit for armor or just 3d print it. That I'll have to think about as summer goes on. I'm doing a medic build since I spent 13 years as a firefighter paramedic before an on the job injury put me off. I'll update more as I go on. I have a few other costumes in various stages as well. 2 Link to comment
quigontimm[501st] Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Jeremy - I was a FF/EMT for 10 years, so I totally get the appeal to do a medic version. I'm just an email away (hopefully) from getting approval on my standard trooper version, but I also want to have the ability to do a medic. That said, I need to find some time to dig into things beyond the CRL, as I'm hoping the medic is more than just a different arm band. The darn thing is, there doesn't seem to be a medical bag or anything that we would expect. 2 Link to comment
xAlpha[TX] Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 The Solo book has photos of a case with medical equipment. Admittedly, that may not be enough to source for a CRL, but you certainly could build those prop. Link to comment

areilly Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 2 hours ago, quigontimm said: good info, though it seems like a rather cumbersome accessory. Definitely. It’s a big heavy aviation toolbox that’s damn near impossible to get outside of the UK. I was thinking of making a unofficial medic kit along the lines of strapping up a smaller medic kit with stuff like the O2 mask with bottle and various accessories like the shears. I think I see a greeblied wrist BP monitor in there as well. 1 Link to comment
xAlpha[TX] Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 It's definitely something to have on display at a con or some other event like that rather than carrying it in a parade or whatever. 1 Link to comment
Blackwatch[CMD-DCA] Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I have a 17 pound (mass not currency) Homak. 74 pounds with my tools. My pliers would not fit in that little thing! Link to comment
weldingdude Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 has anyone found any lightweight/unofficial alternatives to the big Med Kit? did a little digging today thoughts on something like this? 17"x12"x9" seems like it would be about the right size for a o2 mask/canister, a few other bits and things appropriate for a medic... thoughts? 2 Link to comment
Avatar190[TX] Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I'm just using a Bulgarian Medic box I found. It doesn't have the ribbed metal\fiberglass appearance of the Topps kit, but it works for me. 2 Link to comment
weldingdude Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 nice! that looks great! I ended up pulling the trigger on the aluminum case I found... I'm planning on adding a shoulder strap and a generous amount of mud... ? 3 Link to comment
