Scout Trooper Armor In Child Sizes

Post by TK-8841 »

Hey all. Recently, a friend's kid has been asking me about how he would go about building a set of Scout Trooper armor. He's eight years old, though, so obviously he'd be too small for any of the adult sized kits out there, and he's going to be growing, so we wouldn't want to spend enormous sums of money to put it together. I'd love to help him, though.

My question is this: Do any of you TBs out there know of any good resources for building biker armor that could be adapted to fit an eight year old boy? Thanks so much.

There is a guy that makes kid sized TB armor. With them growing it will work a bit longer than a TK, but still eventually grow out of it. I'd have to look up the info on where to get it, but it does exist.

Thanks for the heads up! I was able to get in touch with him over on the Scout Trooper forums.
