    Need some help with Han Solo - Stormtrooper disquise

    Hi everyone,

    I need some help with my Han Solo wearing a Stormtrooper disquise.

    I picked up a Han Solo - (Force Battlers) and his armor is removable and fits pretty well on a Mego body but it is missing the armor for the arms.

    This is what I have so far:

    - Han Solo head by Dave Mc
    - Stormtrooper Armor from Force Battler figure
    - AJ black spy outfit for under the armor
    - LJN boots painted white

    I'm thinking of adding black Chips hands for the gloves but I can't figure out how to do the armor for the arms.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    - Bill

    Well, my route for this was a little pricey. I bought a modern 12" Trooper, removed his vinyl armor, and cut it all up to fit. It worked but is a little thick. Not any thicker than the force battler armor though.

    Looking good so far, BTW!

      I think I ended up using White Superhero boots cut up for the missing arm pieces after being unhappy with craft foam.

        I didn't know that the 12' trooper has removable armor. I'll check into this. What did you use to shave it down?

        What did you use for a blaster?

        Thanks for the help.

              That's what I was thinking too.
              Looks great so far

                  The Tin Man armor seems like it can work. I'll have to do some smooting out but it should not be that hard.

                  I also just picked up a 12" Han Solo and Luke (Dressed as a Stormtrooper) for a good price on eBay. I'll give that a whirl also and I'll let you know how both came out.

                  Thanks again guys for the help.
