    1. Not awesome. Just Nice.
    2. Nope. I don't use full sets.
    3. Add a helmet on it.
    4. No. Since it's still going on. Which is obvious if you go and read thru the thread.

    *And those are Long Gloves, not Bracers.

    1) I think it is a solid set with some good (if not hugely inventive) tech textures. The chest plate (which can actually support a "painted" on logo) and the combined ear/chin guard are distinctive compared to existing parts. I like the collar especially, as it is a high rear hard plate (relatively rare but stylish) and since it is in the collar slot it doesn't interfere with using a neck slot part as well. Certainly worth the zen.

    2) So far I'm only using the chest piece and back collar components on my PPD homage tech police officer (replacing some parts I was formerly unhappy with). I doubt I'll use more then a piece or two on any particular build, but I can see using a number of them spread around (which I consider the benchmark of a good set).

    3) I found the hip item (aka metal underwear) disappointing as there are many very similar items. A new, decent helmet option (i.e. something with a transparent visor or such) would have made it feel more complete.

    The Chest piece, the head's side accessory, and the collar are all awesome parts.

    I gotta say, I'm 100% in agreement with ALL that you said here.

    3) I found the hip item (aka metal underwear) disappointing as there are many very similar items.

    This is where I don't quite agree. Did you know that this hip item comes in a seperate Hips slot, which means you can use belts with it. Something that was sorely lacking with the other "similar" pieces. I have wanted this functionality for a long time.....means I can finally achieve this type of look.....

    Which, in turn, allowed me to achieve this look....

    I dig it. I've really only got a couple of 'gripes', but small ones.

    1- The boots and gloves strike me as more 'retro' than the rest of the set.

    2- Would have liked to see some kind of helmet and arm accessory.

    3- Strikes me as kind of weird to make a 'Soldier' costume and not a single weapon to go with it.

    I did not notice that. I'll have definitely have to review the potential uses based on this aspect.

    I don't like that the chest piece follows the pattern of having an indent in the back/spine when moving in certain ways. But other than that it's pretty cool.

    Seriously, why do all chestpieces seem to have this except like Holo Hex?
