I think Nathan needs to contact the original caster of this kitten and give them money for the right to recast the kitten in question that the original recaster doesn't hold the rights to. Of course, we need to determine if it was originally a Kitten Master, Kitten Expert, Kitten Expert 2, AK, or KAT Kitten. So he can make an Affordable Kitten Alternative (AKA).

Kittens, definitely.

Q.E.D. Shoot the messenger all you want. But attacking the guy isn't going to make the situation any better and as Damian stated, it was probably only a matter of time before it became an issue. If you recall a while back, one of our Australian members had their blaster confiscated. Luckily here in the U.S. we're extremely lucky to have common sense replica laws and police officers that know how to use that common sense to say "Hey, it's a costuming club. Leave them alone." Here in Jacksonville, the police usually take the time to admire the work we put into our blasters. We have officers in our garrison, and everything's cool.

I actually do this with my armor. Well.. a tupperware bin... but at least I put a pillowcase in the bottom so it's sorta padded... I guess... I dunno..

I usually end up leaving my sunglasses on when I troop here in sunny Florida. I had absolutely no problem fitting my glasses in an FX. I could not fit my big head in an RT at all. the AP, CAP, and ATA helmets all were comfortable and I can leave my glasses on. Weather or not your glasses will be "squished" is all in how you do your foam. I do mine very basic. A 1/2 inch sheet in the dome, a forhead block (about 1.5 x 1.5 x 3 inches) to press the helmet out from my forhead, and 2 2 x 2 x 1 blocks on the sides for lateral stability. It never squeezes and stays put.

That + Florida + Star Wars Weekends = instant heat stroke. I guess it'd be cool for the northern US. But yeeeooowww it looks hot! Looks nice and clean though!

I was thinking about something like this.. but my idea kinda involves ducting to pull air from outside beneath the edge of the helmet. Think two little ducts on the sides of your unit that conform to the helmet that run down to the edge trim between the neck seal and bucket rim. Not to give my idea away, but it'll probably never get made by me.

Which reminds me.. can TK-4346 get some detachment lovin'? http://www.501st.com/members/displaymember...amp;userID=8946

Yup! Missingmyplane's advice is comfortable and stylish. I've got it on my armor. 2 x 2" by 5ish inch strips of heavy duty elastic with a ton of plastic weld hold it together. Adds a bit of length and a whole lot of flexibility. Ahh yes.. and the potty issue. Belt sits something like this:
