    Ok on this one i'm building a Mr no stripes ok ? (that's cause i want to save money)

     

    -------------

    We're allowing people to deploy as SWAT on the MEPD without a pack because...

     

    1) you have to already be deployed as a Police Officer... so you'll HAVE the pack...

    2) everything else is about mimicking a trooper (ex: pauldron must match blaster much match pack) so why not allow it?

     

    I don't think the TKs are as specific though.

    I mean the TDs were really, really obvious that "this one" was "this one."

    They were made to be different on purpose by the production team.

     

    The Mr. No-Tube-Stripes (esq.) was just a mistake.

    Not the same thing... that's my two credit chits at least. B)

  2. I think a lot of people fall foul to the fact the trim each side the same distance

     

    Front should be narrow, the rear should be thicker.

    This is due to the way the helmet curves away from you by the ears

     

    The front face is quite flat, but the back end of the helmet starts to curve away from you on the backcap

     

    So trim one side at a time. Do the front first

    EXCELLENT point!

     

    This is so true... and I take it for granted that everyone just "knows" this now and forget I once did not!

  3. I'll troop inside before the show, try to step on stage and dance. At the end of the movie i'll shake everyone's hand when they leave and thank them for coming (i got a lot of free time).

    I'm gonna try and get all the TKs I know to run through the theater from front to back during the Tantive IV scene.

    The rest of the strapping is a little different on my build — that pic isn't my armor in other words, but it gives you a good picture of the size of the straps.

     

    I actually have 2 short straps connecting my left side, and the one long thin strap at the top of the right side, with another short one under it.

    Then 3 straps holding the butt plate to the kidney, and 2 holding the kidney to the back plate.

  6. In a thread from years ago I posted up a bunch of screen grabs from ESB. I'm not even sure of the title of the thread, but I think it had to do with EIB requirements and the promo EBS blaster that had been cast and was being offered at the time with extra greeblies on it.

    Yeah, I thought I had that bookmarked, but couldn't find it... hence this post. :P

    Let me know if you find, and I will do the same.

     

    In the meantime... anyone else?
