TK5492

I think Eric is looking into it already. There's another thread regarding this. I have the exact same problem. The ONLY fix I found for it was to download and use Firefox on a computer. On a smart phone or any other browser forget it. And if you are able to do it through Firefox and then come back and edit on your phone through Google chrome, Safari, or internet explorer it will ruin the whole thread. But as I said Eric is looking into it.

Noone's connected to Alderaan in a lonnng time. A long time.

Your dedication to accuracy is commendable. Awesome work with your research, very respectable.

And so begins speculation on A-C models!

I keep hearing 2016 for the armor. There is a place on the Legion boards where you can view their progress and I believe be added to a waiting list. This is for 501st members only which obviously you qualify for.

Kudos to the guy that got into the bathtub. I'd love to see how long the setup for that shot took!

Okay guys what paint are you using? Is white gloss paint good enough or do you have to clear coat? Thing is I consider myself an excellent painter but I can't paint clear to save my life. I want to get the best look and surface possible but it does make me nervous.

Appreciate it Eric!

Same issue here on Google chrome and internet explorer. Only way I could get it to stop that was download and use Firefox.

Everything looks great but just want to comment on the blaster especially. Gorgeous work.

Yep! Cell 2187!

2187 huh? I see what they did there.

It may be rubies yes but I like the idea of having a secondary blaster to take to troops with big numbers of kids. That way if something happens I don't have to worry about it and don't mind handing it around.

Hmmm... My link isn't working. I found it on spirithalloween.com though. It has dimensions. Looks to be roughly 18" long. Gonna be awfully small without the stock.

Also interested in the scale as it does seem surprisingly detailed.

I usually try to stay in character when trooping no matter what. Alot of times when I tell people my armor was issued to me when I enlisted they roll their eyes like it's so irritating. I don't see why people feel the need to ruin the magic for others. I get all kindof questions and stupid comments though such as : "I know that's a costume." "I know that gun is fake." "I know there's a real person in there." All of this I can deal with as it is often teenage kids making these comments. What I can't deal with is parents letting kids stick their toy lightsabers up inside of my helmet to "kill me" or teenagers hitting me in the back of the head and laughing about my "plastic suit." 99% of the time trooping is great but there will always be folks who just want to watch the world burn.

Probably better as the bolt would also cauterize the wound.

Just saw the preview. Watching now. It's not looking good. Yoda is 6' and Boba looks like he got his costume at toys r' us...

I clean grubiness with windex multisurface. I like to leave the black scuffs from my blaster though. Just gives it more of an authentic feel imo.

Couldn't agree more. Rebel troops were supposed to cower in fear in the face of stormtroopers. They're not battle droids...

Looks similar to the new rubies one they just came out with. Also noted there's no trigger guard. Probably the lesser of the evils with this TK though.

Interesting. Well whoever is responsible for this I'm not overly pleased. Call me a downer I guess but I like to think of myself as a traditionalist. Just hate to see the originals being messed with.

Oh I know I don't. I could deal with the clone wars series because they didn't mess with TKs. But I can't see having to troop with TKs in this armor. It's not evolved it's devolved. Thanks Disney...

So it begins... Your gonna need to somehow walk out with that.

Love this poll. It's surprising the amount of members still sporting them with the availabilty for more accurate options. Very interested to see the result!
