Hello

Now it has finaly arrived and i have spend last week doing some tweaking to get it to fit properly.
I still have some more work to do before it fits perfecly.

The legs and the lower arms work really nice and smooth. I still have some problems with the shoulders but I will sort it out. Just need some hammering.

I payed 2000 usd for the armour and 320 for freight.
I bought it from Armstreet in the Ukraine.

I have sorted out the trouble with the shoulder, then needed to be placed higher up like Chuck pointed out.
Now it works really well, I have tried some halfswording in it and it works like a charm.

I´m most pleased with how the legs work. They move just like a pair of pants. I can do Taekwondo kicks in headhight in the armour.
