I agree. I normally don't buy dated items but I figure most of the items in my wardrobe never last more than 6 months so I made an exception in this case.

They had these today $10 the lady said they just got them in.

They are like $24.99 and were sold at Darths Mall. They had mens, womens, and child's sizes. I was happy to have picked one up for myself over the weekend.

Good pictures! I got some from This sunday, not the best but in case anyone is looking for something specific.

I am already on my way back to Missouri but am flying back down in 2 weeks for another weekend. If you want one they retail at $25 as long as you pay for the shirt and shipping I don't mind picking you one up. Just send me a message close to when I head down if you want one and I can pick it up for you.

Is this the one you are looking for?

We seen a bunch of people in costumes and uniform on the side of the road and if it was anyone here thank you! You got me out of a slump and that excitement seeing everyone just the burst of energy I needed.

Just got home after the most fun weekend ever. We were non stop all weekend. My friend ran just the half and I ran the rebel challenge. We made sure our costumes were running friendly and really seen some cool ideas. I would love to share some of the highlights if I can figure out how from my phone. (Laptop is packed up still) I got my dream purse! A Star Wars Dooney, I imagine you males don't care but I'm still happy about that!

I almost forgot. It's super short notice but Acclaim travel has 3 spots left for the half but they have to have registration turned in early today so it may be too late. It's $305 I believe and comes with the half registration and a one day ticket. I usually go through them when I run in California because I don't have a pass for Disneyland and it's nice to have all that in one package.

That's a long time to be standing there. Not sure I could do it.

I seen a post somewhere where they were looking for cosplayers and anyone with Armor and such to volunteer for the event. Maybe you can do that? I am still working on my costumes but I am doing a Death Star, and C3PO it's hard coming up with something that you can run in but I think I got it. Only I hope running a half marathon in gold pleat her pants isn't as bad as it sounds. I'm a bit sad about the other one though. I ordered what I thought was a ball costume I am painting and it's only the front of the costume. The back is just to hold the front up.

I am super excited for this. I've changed my costume at least 4 times but I think I came up with the perfect one.

Look up Acclaim travel. Last I heard they had a few bibs left. I used them for the Disneyland half and had no issues.

You know your tired when you respond to your own post with out even realizing.

You may be right on that. I've seen pictures with it both ways and just assumed it was a personal preference. I may mess around with it tomorrow. It's not attached yet so it can be moved.

Forgot to add this one.

So after coming to the realization that the first crafty thing I have ever done in my life will not be perfect and I need to enjoy it for what it is, things have been rolling along pretty smooth. I have been failing at taking pictures as I go but took one from todays work and a fun one to enjoy.

What I have realized that this will not be a perfect suit by any means, but will be one that I can have fun with and enjoy.

True. I just don't know what the heck I am supposed to be doing. I dont even know if I am making this fit properly. Lol. I was fine last night after a bottle of Tank 7 but I am giving it another go today. (With the suit, too early to tell on the beer)

I was wondering if anyone here was planning on doing the Star Wars Half Marathon in January at Disneyland. I am a big RunDisney fan and love doing the runs. This one is the icing on the cake for me

This is insanely hard for someone who cant even do oven baked french fries properly. I am failing beyond what I thought was possibly possible on this suit.

Nevermind I found the tutorial I was looking for.

After posting. I realize I may have put this in the wrong category?

I am posting this here for several reasons. First I would love to look back after I get this done and see how far I have come with it, and second. My excitement for this turned to full out terror after opening the box and getting all the pieces out. I never imagined there would be so many pieces. I am almost doubting I can do this and could use help along the way. I have only seen a full Stormtrooper suit one time in person and i didn't think to study it. I have been wanting this suit for years but honestly didn't think there were so many pieces!! Anyhow. I just got home last night from a short trip to Disney for the Rebel rendezvous event and one day at SSW thanks to my job making me cut it short by two weekends. So to start my build I arrived home last night around 4am and rushed to open the boxes I heard both had arrived while I was gone. (I had talked my other half into opening the first one that arrived and took pictures for me but that was it. After opening the second box I had to go to bed and wait till morning to try and look at everything. Some of the pieces here are doubled up. I ran out of table space. I am headed to work in a few hours where I have two 12 hour shifts to do before Monday morning so I have to wait till at least monday until I can officially start anything.

Got a message tonight with these pictures in it.I decided to leave a few days early and My box arrived right after I left so now I have to wait a week to see it. It's going to be a long week!
