Can you check in on possibly shipping it to Orlando? I don't really want to fly with my armor, I can only imagine international flying being that much worse.

Well there was the Slave Leia photo shoot at CIV.... I'll be there at C5! I can't wait.

I asked my wife "Can I have this many helmets?" Very quick answer "No!" Although my brother in law said "There's nothing wrong with having that many"

On one of the Making-of Documentaries on the ROTS DVD you can see what the Digital Yoda looks like in TPM.

I worked at a book store for a short time so I snagged the DVD for free when we sent back the unsold copies of the mag. Still my favorite of all the fan films.

I have this movie as well. It's a fun watch, especially if you are trying to explain to someone why we make such a big deal out of these little sci-fi movies. Highly recommend picking it up.

Even ignoring sites like RPF or TDH, look at how FISD compares to the other Detachments. FISD is HUGE and it really is thanks to the staff here. You have all worked tirelessly to create a great environment and community. Troopers helping Troopers!

I'm going to have to agree here. I honestly can't see paying 4 figures for something that was not even seen on screen.

The MRCE is a great bucket to learn on. I was in the same position as you when I started mine. Very unsure about my abilities and not sure how far I want to take it. I pretty much went for broke and did it, and just had to learn as I went along. It helped a lot to boost my abilities and to gain that confidence. If you like the Hero look, I say go for it. I think the MRCE would make a great Hero lid. Here's how mine came out

That makes sense actually, because isn't that closer to how the clones come together?

Face forward, turn the helmet to the right, plunk down and twist. What's funny is I tried turning it the same distance to the left and I couldn't get it on.

Get some nice white boots for that dress

I love them all, prequels, SE and all. But, if I had to put them in order... - A New Hope - I really gained a new respect for this movie during my TK build, I must've watched it 4 or 5 times a day. It really is the best, it's where everything started. - Empire Strikes Back - Do I really have to give an explanation? - Revenge of the Sith - A little slow in the beginning, but the 2nd half of the movie is really good. Order 66, Obi-wan v. Anakin, the birth of Vader, lots of good stuff there. - Attack of the Clones - Great action, and I think I'm one of the few people who actually liked the love story. - Return of the Jedi - My least favorite of the OT, and it's not because of the Ewoks. - Phantom Menace - There is a lot to like here, but the movie really needs to be re-edited. Lose about 10 minutes of the movie, really tighten up and I think the movie would be 1000x better.

How blind are you with your glasses off? I wear glasses and have a big head. I can't wear my glasses under my MRCE. In fact, my head barely fits into the helmets as is. I couldn't even get my huge melon head to fit into a garrison mate's AP bucket. I gave up when I heard the plastic groaning in protest

FX Armor done in ANH styling.

No fans.. my head is too big for them I have TK-4510's great ANH decals, TM's accurate trim, and Stomper's Hovi-speakers.

MRCE and FX both done in an ANH Stunt fashion. Those are my only buckets at the moment.

Very cool. More armor is always a good thing.

Looks a little Rubies-esque to me. Definitely not a screen used. There's a thread on here somewhere with people who have done "realistic" mods to the inside of the bucket. In an attempt to match those pictures.

Congratulations Brian! Thank you for your hard work Tony!

Book arrived today. Read the first few chapters already and it's a great read. Again, thank you so much for doing this.

I got my TK approved in 2008, before it was even finished I was already scouring the TB boards, the Clone boards, the TIE boards looking for my next project. It really is a sickness. I think I have finally settled on a ROTS Obi-wan, that I would like to have before this summer for Celebration 5. If funds and time permit, I would like to follow that up with a TD.

I was impressed that none of the troopers had problems with the stairs

I'm a Trek fan, although Voyager pretty much killed it for me. It actually took the latest movie and Enterprise on Netflix to get me back in. I think Star Wars and Star Trek can coexist happily. Heck, even R2-D2 showed up in the new movie.

Here's a video of Bonnie dancing in the costume.
