I got a lot of pushback that the tentative name I picked for this detachment leaves a lot to be desired. So I'm throwing the guantlet down Now's the perfect time to make a suggestion: top choices will be put to a vote. Who knows? Perhaps you will win bragging rights laying claim to naming the fiercest fighters in the galaxy.

How picky did you think is appropriate? Since most people use decals I don't think the traps will be an issue, not sure about the tube stripes. This seems to be an under-represented version of the TK so the feedback is fantastic.

If you have any question concerning the Stormtrooper Detachment or Whitearmor.net, here is a list of officers and web staff. 501st First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment Command Staff Please make sure you contact the appropriate staff member for any issues you may have.

You're set!

Done! Don't forget to fill out your 501st specific info on your profile and intoroduce yourself on a new topic in the newbie forum.

Granted!

OK, you guys are set!

Good catches

I think that's a great idea

This is what he's referring to - people posting non-English topics.

No plans, but can easily do so if there is enough interest.

Curious to see what others do. I have rivets now, but next time would probably ABS it to be more screen accurate.

Found this on another board, posted by TE: For the belt, here is a post from TE on another board:

Done!

That's some seriously beautiful craftsmanship! To me that would qualify as a quality fan-made blaster. For the belt, here is a post from TE on another board:

Done! Also notice that there are some 501st specific fields you can fill out on your profile if you'd like.

Done!

Done! I'd sooner turn in my armor than deny you access

Good catch! We'll need to get some pix up soon to show the diff.

For me it was a dream since seeing my first stormtroopers blast their way into into the corridor of the Tantive IV back in '77. The character in my mind I really want to try to reproduce is the MG34 carrying guy patroling the Falcon's innards. Wanting to be a stormtrooper is what moved me to buy my first SW costume (an FX TK suit), and join the 501st.

Enabled!

The Imperial Quartermaster of course! But for those of you not in a galaxy far, far away, try these sources: E-Bay 1. Search on www.ebay.com for "stormtrooper armor" 2. Be careful of poor quality home-made armor. 3. Look for good definition and sharp detail on the various pieces. 4. Most kits come pre-assembed and ready to wear.
