Congrats Karin!

You could check out the MTK lid. It's awesome.

Great deal!

Happy Birthday!

Congrats troopers!

Our little group is doing a "Free Comic Book Day" event @ Texas Toyz tomorrow.

Casey (@ doopys) has had some network email issues. Just stay on him. They are great.

I wear a size 11 and got a size 11. They are perfect and fit awesome. My 2 cents...

NICE.

This will be a good thread, I can tell already...!

Yeah...avoid the noid on this one.

Agree with all the above. I'd avoid this one.

Great post.

Um...that's Bac-lava...but LOL! Try this out...http://trooperbay.com/black-balaclava/

Well...I have this much hair so can't really offer much. I think the balaclava idea is a good idea though. ---------

I stay in character while in public and when asked also refer to my armor as coming from the "Imperial Armory, as ordered by Lord Vader". I usually just wing the other questions that come up (and they do come up). I've said stuff like..."I was on vacation when the Death Star I and II were destroyed. So yea, I missed that one!" The kids love it too. However, I usually do not allow kids or people to handle my blaster.

I'd avoid it.

Agree with Vern...Sci-Fire makes a super nice one, and it's light weight. There is an in-expensive alternative but the sales/service are sketchy (CCC). I would not recommend it.

Yup...velcro strip on the inner boot top connecting with the inner shin. That's me...works great.

You are a breath of fresh air Ingrid! Nobody would EVER tell you to hush!

Looks like your pics did not post correctly. Can you try again?

Looks like a bad re-casting job...maybe AP or TE armor as stated above. I would avoid this one.

Looks great! I echo the above comments on biceps/forearm distancing. What helmet is that, MRCE? You might want to get darker lenses at some point.

This is one of my favorite stops.

I joined up last year and got my ID. Now I have 3 costumes and have learned so much. When I got started, and was totally lost and in need of help, a forum member helped me out. When I thanked him he said, "no problem, just pay it forward man." SO...I have always tried to do that and help anyone, anytime, anywhere...
