You can avoid all of the labor, nasty chemicals, and sanding dust with this RC kit and get right into painting and strap assembly. I will even size the more difficult parts for you, like thigh and greaves length, and install the backpack handles. Comes primed in gray paint, which is good if you are doing either a black or white base for your commando.
What is "seamed"? Many parts of this armor are made of two pieces that are combined into one with tabs glued inside. This results in a seam that must be filled, sanded, and primed for paint, which comes completed for you in this kit.
This kit comes with the 11 most difficult parts already assembled and seamed. This includes the shoulders, biceps, bracers (forearms), thighs, greaves (calves), and backpack (the most challenging part) with handles and back fasteners installed
I believe this is the only RC kit offered in actual ABS plastic, which is superior to HIPS/styrene plastic. HIPS can be brittle (cracks when bent too far and gets worse with UV exposure), ABS is nearly impossible to break. This is vacuum formed like proven 501st clone armor, not a weak 3D print with print lines that need to be sanded out.
Some parts are designed to be rigid (thicker plastic) while others are made to be flexible to better conform to your body, such as the parts that wrap around your abdomen.

27 armor pieces formed in ABS, seamed, and ready to paint:

This is does NOT include a helmet cast. You can order a ready-to-paint helmet here.
Your thighs must measure about 26 inches or less at groin level. No one is likely to fill the bicep armor properly so a muscle shirt is required along with padding at the back of the knee. I offer a basic undersuit package here.
I only offer this in black ABS plastic with gray resin, but the kit comes primed in gray and ready to paint. You can come up with your own strap system or order one here.
Last photo shows a solid cod and abdomen option, which I do not recommend for mobility and ease of dressing and fitting. With this option, you will have to come up with closures on your own.
On occasion, I plan to offer completely finished sets made to your measurements. You can sign up to be notified when auctions are open here.
