  1. I thought caboots is discontinuing their stormtrooper boots.
  2. Yeah you'll need to ditch it, the FX holster is crap. Also I'm guessing you don't have your hasbro modded which I believe is also a requirement for elite and that won't fit in a righty holster due to the fact that the magazine on the gun makes it impossible to sheath on that side which is why the holster is on the left even though most Stormtroopers in the movie are righties.
  3. I'd think if you let the school know you're doing it, you'd be fine. If they tell you no guns, then no guns. Maybe have them orange tipped for the day or at least while you're not taking pictures and police aren't around.
  4. Have you tried Walmart? I just bought a few sets of "under armor" there for I believe $15 a piece (top and bottoms are separate). The brand is called Rocky and they come in a clamshell like package.
  5. Here's the other thread with some info as well. -----
  6. From reading the other threads, you will need to trim the arm and leg pieces so they fit you not loosely. Reattach the chest plate so it doesn't show as much black in the neck area. Buy new boots.
  7. Yup. It never ceases to amaze me the new stuff that's found, especially as the video quality gets increasingly better.
  8. I think you'd need some outside pictures to determine that. There's some elites out there who depending on the lighting in their photos have horrible white matches as well but outside look seamless.
  9. Considering this is a forum based on making fake "ferraris" that's a really bad comparison.
  10. Now he just needs to run through a local forest in it to get that authentic "Oh my god the Ewoks are going to get me and turn my head into a snare drum" look.
  11. Also you need to decide whether you want or care if the helmet is symmetrical which is not film accurate but looks more "real" or if you want a helmet that's more "warts and all" that shows the production flaws of the actual props. Considering you're starting with FX armor which is more stylized than more "accurate" armor, go with a modded MRCE.
  12. Just to add, since I can't access the 501st forums yet. You guys need to be careful because there are discrepancies between trooper models between game versions. One of my friends on starwarsaddiction found that the wii/PS2 version Jump Trooper is completely different model than the accepted version in the 360/PS3 version which is the one the figure and all artwork copies. This is due to the fact that several different developers worked on each version of the game. The actual Lucasarts team only did the two next gen systems. PS2 version: 360 version: As you can see, the 360 version is the same as the promo art: So I'd be careful creating standards from the lesser powerful systems, because they might not match the high end system games which seem to be what all the accepted art comes from.
  13. I've seen some people use velcro along with the clips to help secure the 02 tank.
  14. I have that, but a year later I'm regretting it considering I have a PS3 now. That's a movie I'd like to have on BR.
  15. Watch Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan. Nothing Star Trek will ever come as close to that level of awesome again.
  16. Tron (god I can't wait for the new one)
  17. That's great that he's full of knowledge but does that excuse his actions? I haven't seen much from him in my time doing research here that wasn't at some point either condescending or rude in almost every communication. He deserved being thrown out on his tucus a long time ago.
  18. You might as well get the big 'ol jug because you'll go through a lot of this stuff.
  19. YIKES! Anybody know what the total of registered members is? There doesn't seem to be a lot left to pick from.
  20. Yeah at best you might fetch a couple bucks a pop, none of those figures look to be in that great condition and are all missing accessories. I don't think any of them are hard to come by at all.
  21. you probably need to trim the front and/or back down a little. The FX helmet is a pain but its also like a right of passage.
  22. I got emails from the CT and TB boards that they were doing it and to warn there might be trouble.
