  1. We are quoting the cell block scene. You didn't think you were going to get on a Star Wars forum and not find dorks did you? The day I met my wife she was wearing a t-shirt that said "I heart dorks."
  2. I have a friend who can print me stickers so I'm eventually going to design my own for the rear lense.
  3. "Hey Derek! We are going to have company!" ...sorry. Couldn't help myself.
  4. No that's a really cool scope mod. I had been trying to figure out myself what to do with that small end. I might be eventually copying you on that one. Looking good brother!
  5. Yeah I wasn't sure if the D-ring was sitting flush or not so didn't mention it. Apparently keeping those counters on was quite the fiasco.
  6. Oh I see. He still has it screwed in the front and it just wraps over the center. Hmmmmm... Odd. I wanted to see if I could find a good screen shot an E-11 from ANH that would have that detail visible. The best I found was this: It does look like the rail is sitting pretty high up on the rear sight and... Wait a minute! No power cylinders? No counter? No M38? Looks like my build is getting more and more accurate all the time... Sorry. I couldn't help my self. Yeah it does look like that rail is mounted a bit higher than I would expect.
  7. Since the back half of the rear sight has that "screw hole" maybe he was trying to get the rail far enough back to use that instead of drilling a new hole at the front if the site. That's the only reason I can come up with for that.
  8. Amen to that Brother. Great job on the build! I love the stand!
  9. Put them in a glass case and stare at them all day of course.
  10. I didn't even think to add anything to the paint to texturiz it. I just got texture by dabbing the end of the brush on it (a tedious process to be sure). That looks great man!
  11. I know it's a bit too late now but if you need it my kit came with an extra selector switch. Just PM me if you want it.
  12. Tim she is 6. I've only recently gotten her in to SW (she is a big fan of Vader and Yoda and has been asking me to make her a yoda outfit). I've tried for years to get the three of them to watch the OT with me (I also have an 11 and 16 year old) but wasn't sucesfull until all-con (because I told them they weren't going if they didn't watch them...). The 16 year old liked them but will never be a huge fan and the 11 year old just outright can't stand them. I got the little one to my side though! She is really excited about Star Wars Rebels in the fall.
  13. The holster is also worn on the opposite side from ANH.
  14. Tim your pretty dead on with the ANH/ESB differences. I haven't looked into ROTJ...
  15. Awesome! I actually did see them as well as another Han and Leia that day. Judging from the chest panel this is a different Vader but this is a pick that my youngest daughter took with one (she specifically asked to get a photo with the really tall Darth Vader after we stuck our head into the Star Garrison photo shoot).
  16. You know the more I think about it the more I guess it was chilly Saturday morning to. That was our first day at the con and we weren't staying at the hotel but rather in the middle of organizing our family of 5's first day at a con. I do remember seeing a Hoth Han and Leia on Sunday and thinking how appropriate there costumes were to the weather that day. I'm just going to go put up my shovel now before the hole I'm digging gets deeper...
  17. Well I stand corrected. But I think the cold day was Sunday. Great pics in any case. Thanks for sharing!
  18. You found the grale! I'm so keeping an eye on this one. Awesomesauce!
  19. I remember walking by that photo booth when the Powers were getting theirs taken. Very cool to see the end result!
  20. Oh I hadn't seen that crayon trick. But it gives me ideas... I love the way your scope is turning out.
