ISB Tactical Agent - CRL Discussion

[TreeHuggerMatt]

That makes a lot of sense.  Makes it easier for builders and GMLs. Folk can just scale the biceps as they would currently then.

Hi everyone, I’m currently only on page 2 of this topic for the ISB Tactical Agent’s CRL. 
Someone mentioned me by name (Kevin Weir -Imperial Surplus) on page 1 about my IG comment on the Buckles being different. I was referring to the Leg Strap Buckles. They are nothing like what has previously been used on new era characters. 
Also for the Back Plate Armor - the top hose bibs are not hollow for Andor. Only Solo and Mando show had them hollow. Andor 1 & 2 casted them solid with just a slight recessed center - slightly raised lip. 
Also should there be any mention of the side connectors, that are a fixed to the lower side of back armor. They wrap around towards the front belly. A 2” elastic belly strap is used through the 2 slots on each end to hold it together. Also only Velcro was used to affix the Chest to these side connectors for the screen used suits. 
 

I'm currently getting ready for SDCC next week. I’ll have more time afterwards to assist with more detail information about these characters.

thnaks Kevin good luck at SDCC

my eyes are getting older and relying entirely on screen grabs I never noted the difference in the hose connectors. 

 

@Tal Skirata referencing the images it looks like Gharian and Heert both have 2 inch black velcro holding front to back, thas also how my Jim Tripon armor came. So this is not  velcro holding the front to the back? we have an eleastic web going up to the front from the back? what holds the front in place to keep it from flopping?

Id love to see 3d model makers replicate the exact intricacies of the armor, like Paul Prentice did with the shoretrooper.

Bicep Armor
