  1. Merry Christmas all the best for 2017
  2. Update: Carrie Fisher's brother, Todd Fisher, confirmed to The Associated Press that the actress is now in stable condition following a "medical emergency" during an international flight. According to the AP, Todd Fisher said she was "out of emergency" at a Los Angeles hospital, however he was unable to discuss any further information regarding what has happened, including whether she did indeed suffer a heart attack, as has been reported, or instead another medical issue. Carrie Fisher is fighting for her life, and her support system has arrived on 2 and 4 legs. Carrie's daughter, Billie Lourd, and beloved French bulldog, Gary, arrived at UCLA Medical Center shortly after the actress was rushed there. Billie is Carrie's only child with talent agent Bryan Lourd. As for Gary the dog ... the pooch was always by Carrie's side and, according to witnesses, was also aboard the flight with Carrie when she suffered the massive heart attack.

  4. Hello and welcome aboard, good luck with the build
  5. I can suit up myself just takes a little longer, but I do find it easier with an extra hand.

  7. It could be several combinations, reaction of the paint to plastic or the boxes. Really without trying to replicate what has happened it could be hard to find the answer. A lot of clear varnishes will yellow while curing and can take some time to do this.<br><br><br> I had a black towel wrapped around some of my painted pieces and some black leached into the paint, luckily enough it wasn't deep and I used a cutting polish and removed the black.<br><br><br> Really depends how thick your paint is, you could try some cutting compound on a small area not very visible and see if that removed the yellowing. If it doesn't you may have to sand it all and repaint.<br><br><br> What paint did you use? Also did you use the same make clear coat, mixing some paint types can cause issues.<br><br><br> Can you post a few photos?
  8. Perhaps contact Dan directly he may have a video, his sale thread is here http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/33111-tfa-episode-vii-accurate-stormtrooper-metal-holsters/
  9. For my T21 and DLT-19 I transport in a foam sleeve, for storing at home I have them on a weapons rack up off the floor. I have often looked at a rifle box or similar for transport but they are very large.
  10. Could we at least see a couple of troopers with injuries that can get back up . Nice to see you here Ingrid
  11. Ok now it's a bit low key for me but one more with some of my comrades Entry 5 - It's time to sing Trooper report here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/39963-starlightroom-christmas-party-2016/
  12. DSS TROOP REPORT EVENT: Starlightroom Christmas Party (the day before) LOCATION: PMH Hospital, Subiaco, 19th December 2016 TIME: 1.00 - 3.00pm TROOPERS: ID59226 - Jerry - jezzapm, IC36367 - Luke - Verfolger, TK85421 - Q - gmrhodes13, TR13310 - Liz - Liz WRANGLERS: - REPORT: We arrived at 12.30 in plenty of time to change, only to find our attendance was not expected, a quick check of communications and indeed our attendance was organised for th 19th, not the 20th as staff had been advised. No problems we aim to please and after a quick converstion witht the Captain Starlights we decided to adlib and soldier on. After changing we headed to the Starlightroom to say hello to some younglings then it was off to the outpatients centre. We spent quite a bit of time having photos with families and staff, then headed to some of the wards. We made a special appearnce for a young lad named Kai who was in a quarinteened section so we headed out to the flamingo garden outside his window, very touching as he is very ill and can't leave the hospital and has his own letter box in the garden. After this we had another walk around the wards until it was time for a few of our members to head outside to replenish the hungry parking meters. After a short break we made our way back to the Starlight room for a TV interview which was broadcasted througout the hospital, oh yes and there was dancing . The Starlight room closed at 3.00pm so we called it a day. Starlight organiser appologised for the mix up and thanked us for our attendance and while doing so our squad leader Liz organised with PAC some of their members to attend in our place for the next day as they have organised an Olaf and have a Santa attending. MISSION STATUS: Complete REPORT BY: TK85421 A few photos

  14. DSS TROOP REPORT EVENT: Rogue One Screening: Hoyts 17th December 2016 TROOPERS: TR13310 - Liz - Liz, TK85421 - Q - gmrhodes13, IC36367 - Luke - Verfolger, TK10469 - Ben - BennyTK, IG21897 - Johnathon - ImperialKanos, ID59226 - Jerry - jezzapm Wrangler: James REPORT: Since seeing Rogue One, the first time, all I've been able to think about has been Star Wars, s I was really looking forward to this next opportunity to dress up Smile. We all arrived on time by 3:30, got ready, joked and chatted about our first thoughts about Rogue One. When it reached about 4:00, we all headed out to the area in front of the cinema. There seemed to be a much more steady stream of patrons than the opening night, but their frequency came in waves. Liz started off playing statues in front of the stairs, scaring a few people - after joking it would be funny if she scared someone down the stairs, she moved back a bit further... probably a wise decision. About a third through the troop, a Westfield security man approached me, asking whether we had center permission to roam around the shopping center, I said I wasn't sure and to ask Hoyts manager - from then on we had to remain within the perimeter of Hoyts, rather than the area out the front - this minor inconvenience didn't reduce the photos taken with us though. Over the evening we had two breaks, the first just to cool down and have another chance to relax, Hoyts provided us with free coke, and some refreshing icy water - they sure know how to treat the troops of the empire Around 5:30 my brother James arrived, who I tried to convince to wrangle for us, but he initially chose to sit and read a book.......... About 6:00, Jerry, Johnathon and I headed to the entrance of a cinema which had just finished screening Rogue One and took photos with many surprised and pleased moviegoers. Hearing a couple kids say "I think I saw Vader there" after seeing us then run off to find him was entertaining. As we headed back out to join the others at the front, I convinced James to come and help, although he was quite clueless, he did take photos for a couple groups of people which was good - eventually I'll get him into armour too haha Soon enough it was 7:00, and the flow of patrons had died down, so we called it a day and headed to get changed before Liz, Glen, James and myself went to watch a masterpiece a second time.
