Boots & Neckseal part 1.
Got my TK boots from CABoots. These are really nice boots as far as I can tell. The size was a little big but not bad. One tip with these boots is they smell REALLY bad when you unbox them. I was told to leave them outside for about a week and now I can see why.[caption id="attachment_47" align="alignnone" width="500" caption="Boots"]

Also picked up a neck seal from Triktoys.com. To be honest, I’m not a big fan of it, however it is decent. The quality of the work is pretty good but the ribs are made from what feels like a long skinny strip of plastic that really wants to lay out flat. It gives a sort of tear drop effect when the to half’s are joined in the back. Ive just placed an order with TK-409 to get one of his neck seals. These are supposed to be pure win.

So after some trials and tribulations I finally got my AP armor at the end of July. When my order was shipped customs stopped it because it was “suspect” haha. A interesting conversation I had with the lady at UPS trying to explain to her what it was and if she had ever seen Star Wars, to no avail though. It wasn’t UPS’s fault but just some crazy guy at the US Customs. “Look sir, Terrorists”

Got the Armor all nice and laid out! This box has sat in my room now for months begging to be put together in time for the Fiesta Bowl troop down in Phoenix, AZ this January. But looks like there is an end in sight. I’ve got a few good guys in my Garrison that have offered their assistance.
