    We've had the Shadowtrooper armor kit from Anovos completed since last year, but one addition kit that we wanted to build was the helmet. Over the course of a day, Frank and Norm tackle the helmet build, showing you how to clean up the vacuum-formed parts and put them together. With only four plastic pieces, this is a great place to start on your own Stormtrooper kit!

    The right ear piece on the shadow trooper bucket doesn't seem to be married up to the helmet like it should be - there's a spacious gap...

      @oneplumpboi5317 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I thought that to... The original helmets rarely had that problem (and if did) weren't spaced more than about 3-4mm This on the other hand, is what? a inch away? i think Norm might have cut it out. Knowing norm, he sucks at workshop projects
      I can't but help notice, that they have the wrong type of screws to hold the ears.
      Also...am i the only one that fucking hates norm? He talks like he everybody doesn't know whats happening, it's irritating. I can't stand his simplistic way of talk. "What hold the ears" I dunno...maybe the screws we could clearly see? Or the fact that you helped out with the project.... Fucking hell Norm

    • @dimitri-petrenko
      @dimitri-petrenko 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Fagdalf The Gay Hey we seem to cross paths alot! About Norm, maybe thats his way of letting the viewers know about how things work, asking so that the expert will answer it for us. (there is probably a name for this kind of reporting/interviewing) Other than that I don't hate him really.

    • @oneplumpboi5317
      @oneplumpboi5317 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dimitri Petrenko He ignores other builders and pushes other people away from them with his bullshit "Only one that makes these"
      I.e. The halo reach needler...he said volpin were the only one that made casts....Incorrect, i know 2 more people who make casts, way before the video was even made.

    • @oneplumpboi5317
      @oneplumpboi5317 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The pre-assembled ones are poorly done if you look at the Promo pics, the ears are mismatched, and have spaces.
      Plus, their team is a quantity>quality. A lot of people have already had a lot of problems with the TFA helmet being poorly assembled

      +Wyatt Medley there are better kits around - i strongly suspect that this is an advert/sponsored - which seems to be the way tested is going - its really sad to see good products getting ignored and then other companies getting a lot of coverage - its just advertising dressed up as a review or guide- it was the same with the airbrushing videos it was just a free advert for Iwata- who sell overpriced airbruushes

    • @wyattmedley2426
      @wyattmedley2426 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +captainkavi exactly, and I rather pay more to a person who can make them with but higher quality material. This armor seems like it would crack easy. also that a symmetrical stuff, what a load of shit. Who wants a helmet thats not symmetrical unless it's an original.

    • @emptyangel
      @emptyangel 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Wyatt Medley I think it's nice they went down the path of making it look as 'polished' ANH helmets. There are loads of styles of helmets so I guess it's down to your preference, personally I like the asymmetry of the ANH helmets.

    • @fanis1414
      @fanis1414 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @captainkavi
      @captainkavi 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      fanis141414 You are incorrect - they are not obliged to say anything as we have discovered in previous sponsored video's when Tested has failed to mention that they weren't real reviews- i assumed the same thing but its not the case- This is why people are asking for clarification in their video comments now on a regular basis - - Previously they have come into comments section to confirm that some of the video's are in fact sponsored -= they have stopped recently - i am assuming that because it was bad press for them- Sad but true- the power of extra profit end up over powering independent and unbiased reviews- - if you look back over Testeds history you will see that they heavily favour certain brands over others regardless of the competitons merits- (DGI drones /Ultimaker printers/ Iwata airbrushes etc etc etc) sad but true i am sorry to burst your bubble

    i am confused. i was almost going to get one but it looks like i would pay $1,000+ for the same quality as the $3 things at Walmart for costumes. actually the Walmart things are better as they are vacuum mold and colored and no trimming. and worse is its like $3-6,000 for the same thing just trimed for you... is there any way to get a storm trooper sute with out selling your house for a Walmart costume? like thick PVC or foam or something? or make the $10 of plastic more affordable? i feel it would be cheaper to... idea, can you make a vidio ware you try to 3D print a set of storm trooper armor?

    • @nousername3004
      @nousername3004 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      there are no scenes with shadow trooper in the movies but they are rather often used in the exstended universe so they might got some referenceses from there

    • @jimdrake2580
      @jimdrake2580 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +metanulski So the manufacturer wouldn't have to make two molds because molds are really expensive. If they make the Stormtrooper with the "original" asymmetry, then they can just reuse the molds for the shadowtroooper and print the pieces in black plastic instead of white.

    • @madcowrebel4216
      @madcowrebel4216 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2
