I recently just purchased a Krop suit and I'm getting it ready to wear for the 1st time this weekend at a Con in Philly. I have a couple of question's that you might be able to help me with.
1st my suit has a wide black strap connected to the bottom of the back pack. Where does this attach to or does it just get tucked behind the belt?
2nd what is the best way to wash and clean the body suit after a long day at a Con?
3rd do you recommend wearing any type of "under garment" as in T-shirt and thin pant's or short's under the body suit?
Also s there anyone producing the rifle's and pistol's besides Krop? I see that they have them advertised but they don't have any available yet?

Just got back from a pretty good Comic Con in Philly and lets just say I "Stood Out" in the crowd, lol. Funny how the older crowd knew what I was and thought I was "Awesome" and the younger crowd didn't have a clue what a Cylon is and thought I was " Awesome" and the little kid's just hid behind their parent's leg's, lol.
Body suit was just as hot as I expected it to be but it was worth it and the shower felt great.
Here's a few pics.

Well done Centurion Sabre6! You have helped spread the Cylon might across this Earth... but... Did you find the Galactica? ;)

I love the photos. You and the Vader's rock - sith Cylon.
Stormtrooper stare down is sweet, you show him who's Empire is better. lol

For your questions...
  • 1. I think on your Krop suit the black flap is an additional anchor for the bottom of the back pack to the ribbing you seem to be missing...? See this pic: http://www.byyourcommand.net/cylongalle ... play_media there are typically three rib strips, two attach to the bottom of each side of the chest, wrap around the side a bit and both join the third rib that sits over the center of the back.
  • 2. My under suit is a different make so I can't be certain, still, I'd recommend only hand washing.
  • 3. I usually do t-shirt and shorts, so you can change in or out of the suit anywhere if need be. Next time I got an under armor long sleeve shirt. They are supposed to wick away sweat... I'll let you know how that goes when I can.
  • 4. Check our Cylon Store (top of home page, when logged in). I think you might yet find one rifle maker.

Thanks for the reply. The Con was great and I have another one next weekend. It'll be a smaller one but still a good reason to get out and destroy human's, lol.
I was already going with the idea of hand washing the body suit and I went with a t-shirt and short's also not knowing where I might be able to change if needed. I basically wore the body suit from the hotel to the Convention Center and put the armor on in the parking lot, lol.
Might look into getting some under armor very soon but I didn't have too much of an issue as far as sweeting, even though I was soaked when I left it wasn't a major discomfort. The main issue was since I'm bald sweet kept running down my face and into my eye's and mouth so I'm guessing sometime of "Doo Rag" or Bachlava is needed to keep the sweet out of my eye's.
The year is just starting and there are many Con's yet to come. Hope that I'll run into a few more of our Cylon brother's and together we can end the human race once and for all, lol. :byyourcommand:
