I want your shelf. That is a sweet collection.

Welcome! Looking forward to seeing your eventual build!

Looks nice. Was going to mention the mesh on the teeth but you caught it. Nice build. Good luck!
-
Welcome, you are starting with the right attitude. Good luck!

Wes Pfneisl 7639 EIB Letter

With so few people going for EIB I doubt it'll ever just go away. We're still not at 300 EIB's which isn't very many of us when you think of how many 501st approved there are. This is just my observation. From my less than 1 year of service to the Empire. Yeah, I'm still very new and shiny!

Looks pretty cool. Congrats on your first troop. I understand the feeling, I had my first troop recently at a Comic and Video Game expo. Have to ask was there someone in the Wompa or was it just a prop?
-
Welcome, I understand how you feel. I saved up for about 5-6 months before I could afford to buy my armor. It's all worth it though.
-
Looking good. Good luck on your EIB application!
-
Welcome. I have no experience with the TK Commander, eventually someone who does will chime in though. Good to see another Canadian!

Congrats. You're armour looks pretty sweet.

I've been considering adding the spring and bolt to my Hasbro. If I could bother you for the dimensions of the cuts you made for your that would be great. Also, what did you use for the spring catch?
-
I was just approved late this year. I've done 2 official troops, and one unofficial as just a test.
Favourite one so far has got to be the first. Was at the Edmonton Expo. Think I was smiling the whole time inside my helmet. It was just awesome.
-
I will also be interested in the new certificates and some EIB patches. Things take time. Understood. Standing by.

Congrats Trooper!

Thanks for all the congrats. I'll definitely look into moving the rivet on the knee belt soon as I return home. Just left for a 10 day trip back home and the armour didn't follow me.
Thanks!

Can't believe I missed something so basic. The lens in my helmet was the stock lens that the RT-Mod comes with. By no means is it green. I still had in my mind the Hero criteria that allows smoke colored so I never even though to change it. I was going for the hero until I decided to do the stunt. Realized this at 10:30 at night. The fact that I couldn't go to bed until I had the lens switched and the new pictures up either shows dedication or obsession. My wife bets on the latter one. Oh well. Here are the new pictures of the helmet showing the green lens.
First the side by side comparison,
A little darker for sure.
And installed in the helmet with a light behind.
Pictures were taken with my Ipad but they look decent enough.

I haven't had a single notification in 2 days. Maybe that's why there are 5 EIB Applications waiting?
Or they are just busy. Understandable as this isn't anyone's full time job. How cool would that be though?

Although I'm sure I'd be warm enough with some extra clothes under the armor, with all the snow that we've got I'm not going to risk it. Almost slipped and fell just walking to get the mail. Last thing I need is to take a spill while in armor. That could get kinda expensive. Thanks for all the input.

Just noticed I missed a picture of my right shoulder strap. So that's been added now.

Your armor looks pretty sweet. I had my biceps sitting where yours are now and was advised to lower them a little to hide more of the black. I thought I would lose mobility but I actually got more. That's all I can really say. Nothing that should keep you from getting approved though.
Just my 2 cents.
