Great to see Centurions represented! Looks good. I do agree on the undersuit should be tighter. Maybe can you find dance-type leotards? At least you have something until you can get a better suit. We need all the Centurions out there we can get! :cylon:

Looking GOOD Flyboy! That is a great line up of costumes... But the one guy needs to work on his Princess Leia costume. lol :lol:
You have a cool mix of different builder parts to make one awesome Centurion.

...One small item if I may suggest it

UFO Parade? That sounds awesome! Never seen one of those before. Would you be able to get pictures by any chance?

Very cool. Did you add it yourself?
I would think that would lead to better vision, the slit option...

Do you have a close up of the slit? I'm always looking at alternative ways to see.

After looking at the Kropserkel helmets again, it appears there are two different ways to see out of it:

Option 1: The traditional "salt and pepper" version

Option 2: A slit above the eye scanner as seen here:

Hope it helps, Hand-Schaub!
