TK-4962 requesting detachment access please! http://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=14411

Oh man, i cant believe i missed all of this. I was running around in my "EIB ready" TK the whole weekend. I finished it two hours before our drive from La to Fl. I should have looked at the forum before C6, but i was too busy finishing my build. I guess there is always next Celebration. The pictures and gear looks great everyone!

WHO DAT! My screen name comes from my grand-paw. It was his nickname. He had red hair and his last name was White. My last name is also White and I also have red hair. I'm very glad that his nickname rubbed off on to me over time. Its something I'm very proud of and I'm sure he would be too.

I ordered my AP kit last November and received it in March. WELL WORTH THE WAIT. His customer service is great, and his product is great. Sometimes it just takes waiting, which I agree sucks, but it's worth it and just how this hobby goes. Mark was great to deal with. For anyone waiting, I suggest reading and researching as much as you can during your waiting period, and then read and research some more lol. It's a whole different animal once your box actually arrives. I'm about 80% done with mine. Good luck

That looked like a blast! Great pictures!

I will have my TK approved by the end of the month. My wife and i will be there. She's a Tie Pilot. It would be great to have some kind of FISD meet up and group picture.

So awesome! Congrats on the first troop Andrew!

Looks great! Good job. I should be starting my AP build in the next few weeks.

Andrew your suit looks awesome! I can't wait to see your request for EIB status. I'm loving the AP armor!

With your body type, I'd go with AP! The ATA is supposed to be good too. I just know AP makes a great product and has great customer service. This is just my opinion. I was in your boat about two-three months ago with trying to start my build and deciding on an armor. Just make sure you take your time and read and research as much as you can. It seems overwhelming at first, but after a few weeks and months, you'll be super knowledgeable and be able to help out other future TK's. Also check with your local garrison as some of its members can help point you in the right direction and assist on your build. GOOD LUCK TROOPER!

I'm a real slim guy and my should be here soon, so I'm really enjoying this thread. I'm gonna be doing a strap and snap system just like this so it really helps having the pictures also. I like the idea to use the elastic to keep the chest to the ab plate. Keep up the good work and good luck! This should turn out great!

Great!

I got the email early this morning also. I just paid through the PayPal email address that was included in the email. I actually didn't know they even had a website. I would think that your fine as I've heard nothing but good things about this company and their boots.

Happy New Year Troopers!

Wow, that's awesome Vern!

With it being the last week of the year, where does the EI number stand now? Are we going to reach the goal?!

A M A Z I N G

A Festivus for the rest of us!

This is awesome! I can't wait to see the episode. The 501st rules!

Ha ha! That HAD to be a fun parade!

Your suit is incredible!

Thanks! That's exactly what I was thinking! Grabbing a Stanley! I have a helmet bag for my lid, but would it be overkill to have it in a bag and also try to find some sort of hard shell type of box to put it in too?
