Gez,

Any progress? The one I had purchased from you years ago ripped apart under its own weight when I tries to put it on. I have since made repairs but would love to get a new one when it is ready. Thanks!
Zach

To Gez (or anyone else), My torso that I bought from you 2 yrs ago has now completely sheared apart under its own weight. It looked great but I was only able to wear it 1 time. For $600 it was a bit much for something worn once.
My suit is currently not usable w/out a midsection. Does anyone know where I can reliably find a mis-section !?
Has anyone tried using the 3D printed version for sale on line?
Robocop is my favorite suit to wear, I really need to find a midsection. Gez, how is your rebuild coming along? Have you solved the tearing apart issue from the first batch?

sorry to her your bad news on your torso . i was not the one to make the torso it was a friend called carl on who you paid . after you told me tht it spilt i stopped all torsos from him as i dont wank that risk . nd ask for any rubber parts i make them my self now as i know what is tobe used . on the new torso iam building it going to be a lot better and using silicone and a matting in the torso with a zip at the back. ive done many tests with the neck seals i have made and they are very strong and will last . and i told you once my torso is made i will look after you . but i feel this is a jab at me now. when it was not my work .

Not to squash Gez's ambitions here, but in the meantime, I have ordered and received an excellent torso made of plastic but 10 times better quality than the original Bruce Hansing version (which came with my suit). It is a nicer, thicker and easier to wear version of the hard plastic complete with Velcro straps
It is available through a costume maker (Robotcostumes) on eBay in the States:

https://www.ebay.com/usr/robotcostumes?ul_noapp=true

He is reasonable, reputable and ships quickly. I believe he can even make an entire 1987 Robo suit.
