I just picked this up second hand. I was told this was made by TE. Wondering what your guys thoughts are on this. Thanks

I just read that Matt has told you its not 1 of his suits?

It look identical to me TE2 i built and sold earlier this year. It has the right parts for a TE TE2 set with the extra left forearm from the tour suit. Is it matte hips or styrene plastic?

It looks nice, all the pull are clean and look ok to me so what is the problem?

Yeah, Matt got back to me and said it was a CR AP recast. I guess the Yellow glue gave that away. I was really trying to stay away from buying something that was recasted.

It's not a CAP set either. Whoever it is could be staying under the radar or only made a limited number of sets.

Can't see anyone going to the trouble of making all those forms to sell a few kits.

I dont see how the yellow glue gives it away. It looks like someone started to assemble it and just quit. The glue could have been to put in a snap or ???, no?

I didn't know there was an armor maker called "CRAP"?

Well the more I work on it the more it looks like it is there for a reason. For one thing not all the pieces have it. The pieces that does have it looks to be where the plastic is thin. I am the 3rd owner on this kit.

Now that is a very strange place for the plastic to thin out.
