Thats a good one!

Haha, awesome vid! Thanks for the link!

"I'm such an idiot..." Dude, that's one of the funniest vids I've seen in a LONG time! Thanks a bunch for posting it!

My bucket came today! I almost fainted from excitement, lol! I couldn't WAIT to open the box, and give it a look over. And, of course, once I had it in my hands, I HAD to try it on =) The things that will need to be fixed/added on became abundantly clear right from the get go, but, still, even fresh out o' the box, it's pretty wicked awesome! I've got the pics I had taken uploaded onto a photobucket account. Here ya'll go! Enjoy, and let me know what you think! http://s1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc509/SemperParatus485/Stormtrooper%20Helmet/ Oh, and Tom, thank you very very much for the information! It's very helpful! And the TK diagram about the differences between ANH and ESB is awesome! I'm torn, because I have an ESB helmet now, and I'm right handed, so I like the holster placement of ESB, but I *hate* those Snowtrooper handplates, lol. I guess I have to make a pretty big decision pretty soon. =/

Yup, that's the exact helmet I'm getting! And yes, I'm doing an ESB TK. Hope to eventually be able to get my EIB, but for right now, I'm just worried about affording armor of ANY type, that will meet 501'st approval =/ And I just found out about the helmet last night, so I got it at the $159.99 price. Still, I think I'm going to be happy with it once I get it modded up right. It'll fit my big thick duracrete skull in it, and that's half of it right there, lol. I wish I could have made it to C5. Oh well, there's always next time, I suppose! Now, I just need to find a set of ESB TK armor, for a good price, that will fit me (I'm 5'9, 213 Lbs) Any ideas there?

I believe I did, yes. I got it from Elite Collectibles Inc. Great price too. And my adviser Wally has the same helmet, so, he knows all the modds =) I was lucky to find it, and lucky to get and adviser that knows the helmet inside and out!

Hey everybody! Been a while since I posted here, so I figured I'd share the good news with you! I ordered my Bucket today. Its an MRCE model from Elite Collectibles Inc. Got a good price on it. Decided on that one, vs. a few other options, after some discussion with my Academy Adviser, Wally. Its essentially the same helmet he has, and having tried his on, I have a pretty good idea of how its going to fit me. Now I just need to save up for the rest of my armor! =D

VERY cool! That would be great to record trooping events with! Awesome idea dude! I might have to get me one of them. Well, when I actually get my armor =P

I stand corrected....my day has just been made TWICE!!!

Thanks for the link ELP! You just made my day!

"Daddy loves you" I almost died laughing by that point!

Those are AWESOME! I've got them all saved, and the first one is my new wallpaper! Thanks a million for posting them!

Welcome! I'm sorry but I'm not quite sure as to the answer to your question. I'm still relatively new here myself! But I'm sure someone will be along before too long that will know. Good luck in your project, and welcome again!

Happy Birthday!

"Isn't he a little short, for a Stormtrooper?" Haha, seriously though, thats epic, man! I wish my dad could have made something like for me when I was that age...then again, he was never really into Star Wars to begin with In anycase, superb looking armor!
