I was 6 years old when I first saw ANH.
I've always wanted to be a stormtrooper from that day on.
Unfortunately the grow bag my parents kept me in, and the feeding of baby bio, once a week meant at 16 years old I was a height of 6ft 2".
Now at 41 years of age and 6ft 5, my dream of being a TK has crashed and burned, due to being too tall.
So, my only option was to embrace the dark side and become Vader.
I feel a little jealous of the guys who are average height, and can fit most costumes. However maybe some wish they could be a Vader too.
So in a nut shell, I'm hoping to be cleared, sometime this year and will troop until I drop, to make up for all those lost years of never being able to wear the white armour.

Off topic Vader
in Other 501st Costumes

Hi Rich,
Unfortunately a Vader costume is not a one stop shop. There are vendors out there, that do the complete costume, however the accuracy is questionable on most parts.
If your looking for accuracy to join the 501st you will need to source each part from different vendors. This is very time consuming, so patience is key to any good Vader costume.
It's expensive and takes time, but well worth the wait.
