Re: ROTJ Octagons

Gotcha. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180410/a503469a263a9dedbeba2cc0938c81d8.jpg But I was always of the belief that this scene was shot for ANH but cut..and reused for ROTJ. Hmm..does that mean our CRLs are..backwards? Also..unless it's just glare off the polished plastic..it appears the main...

Re: ROTJ Octagons

Just on that point, where do we get to see the 3rd hose in the movie? I'm sure a few of us are familiar with this image: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180410/f45a7c873f41e7e2114c11e97404db99.jpg I can't see any evidence of a 3rd hose on this specific dude(and his switches look standard also)..b...

Re: ROTJ Octagons

That footage was originally shot for ANH..hence the screw cap cover doohickey thingies on the octogons.

The only true place you will see a "ROTJ" variant pilot is during Palpy's arrival on the DS2.

Re: ROTJ Octagons

They dont have different facial markings.'Widow tears, 'Tubes' and 'Mohawk' are the 3 paint schemes and they appear in both ANH and ROTJ. As far as I know..all the cockpit shots are reused footage..and the scene of them running through the corridor before DS2 blows was cut from ANH. Only the Emperor...

Re: Mon Cal armour.

Hey Fryguy. yup, I'm over the moon now that the kit has arrived and can't wait to get stuck in. Can't get started yet as I'm waiting on the assembly instructions and don't want to risk ruining it by guessing which bits get screwed on, which bit rivets. Anyone else with a MonCal set up care to give m...

Re: Latex Rubber Shoulder Straps for TIE ArmorI

OK, cool. So you just punch holes in the latex straps and use the screws to attach the tiles and strap to the armour?

Re: Latex Rubber Shoulder Straps for TIE ArmorI

Am I right in thinking that these are suitable for holding the weight of the armour, with no need for webbing straps/vecro suport? If so, what's the best wy to attach them? just punch a hole in them for the Chicago screw to pass through the Tile, strap and then armour?
