What's the best option for a biker scout undersuit, do you have them made locally?

i found this one but am not sure if it's acceptable http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-STAR-WARS-BIKER ... 3a635747bd

depends on whether you want to be a more accurate scout or not.

Frodo,Naruto,Weirdo is the right person to help you out with Biker Scout stuff. He's referring to Lancer grade which the higher accuracy grade for Biker Scouts - even higher than 501st approval standards.

thanks Mosske.

the suit does not have a rear view, thus i am not able to give any sound advice. if you do choose local-made flight suit, you can get it done at a cheaper rate.

for the 501st approval, you need to be at least 80% movie accurate.

Arek, have you sold your Storm Trooper armour yet? i was wondering why you want to sell it? are you a 501st member or not?

I'm 501st in Brunei and have decided to hold onto my TK for now.

Still waiting for my scout armor from MonCal but i haven't got an undersuit yet. I've reviewed the bikerscount but was wondering what undersuit is good for trooping in tropical weather.

Hey arek,

The specs and design on the flight suit are totally wrong.

First the flak vest should feature a round neck instead of a mandarin collar design. Ribbed biceps should end at the shoulder joint and its length should long enough such that it extend about 1cm beyond the shoulder bell. Zipper should be at the back of the flak vest and have a overlapping piece to hide the zipper when zip up

Secondly faux suede riding patch on the inside of the thighs should not extend beyond the groin area. Flight suit should have a mandarin collar

Thirdly, the fold patterns along the abdominal area of the flight suit shouldn't be present, instead an elastic band should be sewn and hidden in to tighten the suit around the waist area. Zipper should one instead of 2.
