So here's another question that's been on my mind. If you go "all out" and shoot for Centurion status, does that also mean that you also qualify for EI? I read the CRLs and it seems like they essentially just "stack" on each other in increasing levels of attention to detail. It seems this way to me anyhow.

Unfortunately I won't have the funds to utilize until late December or January. But I've got a little time to get things properly researched and planned out for this build. It'll hopefully be squared away and approved by next years Mechacon in New Orleans.

Man this is greatly helpful for me! Thanks brothers! I feel more confident about the RT Mod armor for my goals now.

tkrestonva: Bast Alpha Garrison.
Locitus: I did like the RT Mod set as well because of it's sizing allowance. I had heard the helmet was good for basic entry but wasn't sure if it would pass muster for the EI or Centurion.

Hello all! First post here and I'm glad I've finally gotten to begin in on a ESB TK as I've always to do one. My local garrison has a shortage of TKs so it was the perfect excuse for me.
Well, I'm of course looking for the choices of ESB armor (which I could qualify for my EIB.) to best fit me aswell. A lot of people have said CfO is the way to go but at 6'2" and 210 lbs I think I'd look more like an Imperial sausage than a trooper. I was considering AM or RT Mod but I think that the helmets aren't allowed under the CRLs (especially not for the EI) so I'm kind of stumped.
I need advice on my next steps. I haven't purchased anything yet as I don't want to buy a kit only to find out I just blew several hundred bucks on a set I couldn't use or get EI with.
Any ideas folks?

Greetings brothers in armor.
I'm reporting for indoctrination here in Lafayette, Louisiana.
I've been a huge fan of the 501st for many years and an even bigger nerd for the ever iconic Stormtrooper for just as long. I was thrilled when I discovered our local Bast Alpha Garrison was very active in our area and have wrangled for them several times. I had a good chance to see what goes into wearing a set of armor. I knew after a little research and some questions to my garrison members that what I wanted to do was become a TK.
I've decided on an ESB TK. I'll be adding the attentional details to qualify for both EIB and Centurion. I should begin my build early in January 2012 and hope to have everything squared away and approved by this time next year as to attend MechaCon 2012 in New Orleans.
I have already gotten some really good advice for the build from several of you. (A big thanks for that in advance.) I hope to enlist more of your sage advice as my build progresses.
