Thought I'd post some pictures of my finished and Rebel Legion approved Havoc Squad Trooper! I figured other troopers would like to see! comped shot Thermal Detonator Front and Back From Long Beach Comic Con '12 Bucket off after wearing a TK for a year, this thing is HEAVY! Weighs about 35 pounds with the rifle. I have a build thread (that is pretty long) on the Rebel Legion forums if anyone wants to see the progress! http://www.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=41615

Sounds like we are gonna have a pretty good turn-out on Wednesday for the families return as well!

I hate having a wire running out of my helmet and can't get a mic to stay on my face without falling down, so I was wondering what people that was a good wireless mic to use with the iComm/Aker setup?

We did our first day at the set for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition for a firefighter who lost her house and her husband's star wars collection during the 2011 Texas fires. We were there to protect the designer who was building the secret room for the family. We donated a bucket with everyones signature on it to the family along with a star wars toys from all our personal collections. We go back on Wednesday to welcome the family home!! Since the episode doesn't air till next Christmas, I'm only posting images without spoilers. Designer John (who was doing the secret room) Designer Pauly and the Architect of the house Pro BMX Bike Rider Matt Hoffman and this one is just funny haha

i used rivets because the belt covered the top of the thigh

The Central Texas Squad (with some members from North Texas as well!) did the Chuy's Parade yesterday! We also took a brief trip to the capital on our walk back. Here are some pictures: https://picasaweb.google.com/106732009917406810840/ChuySParade2011 and some highlights: and then for fun:

pretty crazy! looks awesome

I'm not sure I follow you about the tape?

i have 3 elastic straps. i may lower it a bit though so it doesn't ride up all the time.

I'm having some issues on my AP armor with the buttplate. I'm a skinny guy and so my butt sticks out when the armor is snug like I did on my ab-plate. It hangs ok although rides up a bit when standing up-right but when i bend it sticks out on the top and overlaps sometimes cause my butt is pushing it out. I'm not sure if i should make longer elastic and make it hang lower (its under a half-inch from the back-abs right now) or maybe make the strap between the codpiece/butt longer and looser? Any ideas? here's me doing a weird bend in it so you can see it:

I'm looking to start building one of these myself! exciting!

same with me, although since I haven't heard anything I'm guessing i have to wait another 8 weeks which is a bummer

its Dec. 20, 2011 in North America and Dec. 22, 2011 in Europe! In case you haven't seen yet.

thats some awesome photography as well! nice work!

no problem! When I get to work today, I'm going to go through all my pics from all the conventions this year and put them up somewhere of all the 501st cause I have a LOT haha. Maybe more of your are in them.

Hey dude! I filmed you checking in your rifle haha! You actually made it into our highlights video: http://www.swtor.com/media/trailers/2011-san-diego-comic-con-highlights 00:32 seconds in. Probably got a lot of you also in the video, especially in the posed picture.
