Posted June 24, 20177 yr Looking for some thoughts here. I'm not a huge fan of the tanks on the First Order Flametroopers. They are huge. What do you think about using white scuba tanks? One small caveat is that I did have to shave off the top little notch on the tanks that would be the first stage regulator with an Exacto knife. DSC03542 by James Eilers, on Flickr
June 24, 20177 yr I agree the original tanks are too big but I'm not a fan of cutting pieces personally but it looks closer.
June 24, 20177 yr The tanks for the modified scuba tank look too small compared to the actual backpack in the movie. Yet, the lego build one is too big...sigh.
June 25, 20177 yr If you don't mind custom parts, Clone Army Customs have come out with the exact part: https://www.firestartoys.com/Shop/Minifigure-Bodywear/Clone-Army-Customs-Bodywear/40229-Clone-Army-Customs-~-Flame-Backpack-~-White.html

I'll take a look. Brick Arms has one specifically designed for the FO troopers but its $10 for the backpack and flamethrower...
