  1. From the discussion it seemed that most remnant were dirty and weathered. As to difference that is debatable and may or may not form part of the same CRL's as a variant option. That's what make this all a stack of fun, working through those small pieces of information we have, and hoping to see more footage on these guys as the current series and new shows come to air. Loads of room for good focused conversation so I am very pleased that you are happy with the launch of this area Jason
  2. Well my fellow troopers, the day has arrived. 6th July 2021. We officially start to celebrate the past 15 year of life as a detachment. It's pretty incredible to think, that thousands upon thousands of members, 501st or otherwise have worked their way through these forums, leaving their mark on the way, and allowing us all to take a wonderful journey into the development and ever growing resource that FISD has become. We have the largest membership base, one of, if not the busiest forums in the legion, an attache program that reaches more garrisons than any other, and a mass of TK information photos and other resources that some others would be envious of. All this with so few costumes in comparison to many other detachments. I think you could say we are doing OK! To welcome in our anniversary celebrations, today we launched a few things to get everyone in the mood. Our Special edition news letter is now posted and the mass email out will begin. We have launched our new and improved Expert Infantry honor gallery and a new forum section for our Anthology and remnant soon new to legion costumes. Awarded our highest Detachment accolade, the FISD Achievement award. And last but not least, launched our Anniversary coin sales thread. If you wish to share the love and celebrate 15 years with us please feel free to use our Facebook frame created by TK85421 http://www.facebook.com/profilepicframes/?selected_overlay_id=271286071464787 Happy 15 years FISD
  3. Additions to the Plan that can now be revealed. New section for Anthology TK expansion outside of Rogue 1. New Expert Infantry Honor gallery now live. These were officially launched today in celebration of our 15th anniversary as a detachment.
  4. July 6th 2021 Sometimes it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that a member stands apart from the rest, not on occasion but on a consistent basis. Glen Rhodes has dedicated an enormous part of his time to the members of this detachment and to maintenance and upkeep of these forums. He has been intrinsic in the revamp and clean up and given nothing less than 110% at everything he has applied himself to here at FISD. This will be the second time Glen has more than earned this accolade placing him in a very select group indeed. I believe his work and dedication shows clear merit.

  5. For the most part the system is back up and running, there are as couple of things still popping up like data storage and Caching issues, but for the most part things should be ok. Mathias undertook another back up last night which can slow things down, but forum appearance and loading should be better now.

  7. A great thread and still very relevant and should continue to be so into the future. Do we have a comparison on the IB and Gio's boots (Crow Props). I know there are some visible differences with the pattern around the rubber base but would love to see a similar comparison made as this would suit both our future R1 and Anthology troopers as well as our First order troopers (same boot)
  8. Good to see this list growing with some solid number coming through now.
  9. This is coming together well, if anything you can probably reduce some of the return edge on the thighs for comfort.
  10. Congratulations Justin, a very smooth merch run indeed. Some great feedback on your packaging skills too, i think the words were "He went well and truly over and above on this one" Well deserved award and a big thank you for your service to the Detachment and our membership.
  11. I’m confused, I thought we were discussing this for an ANH approval? Joseph are you suggesting we also axe the Airsoft from the R1 CRL as well unless it has the grip replaced?
  12. Congratulations Justin, slowly working your way up to legendary status
  13. Lets look at the wording for the ANH E-11 in the CRL Based on a real or replica Sterling sub-machine gun, scratch-built, or a modified commercial toy Stormtrooper blaster. This does not change for EI as nothing is mentioned., Toy Stormtrooper blasters are not accurate in themselves and probably less accurate than your S & T. At Centurion it is clear that we don't accept modified toys or Bapty's as they are not accurate to ANH sterling, so that would also cover any blaster not accurate to the ANH Sterling which unfortunately also would cover any blaster S & T or otherwise with incorrect parts. Bapty-style, Hasbro and Rubies blasters are not allowed, even conversions. I think the CRL currently explains itself well enough, but I have no problem in adding additional items to the centurion list. We didn't have these available to members when this section of the CRL was written so not possible to exclude something that hadn't previously existed. I would certainly be adverse to requesting anyone modify an expensive Airsoft to a point it is no longer usable, therefor my recommendation would be to not use it in our high level approval.
  14. Additional update: Due to a security upgrade with the latest version of INVISION, Forum log in has also upgraded. In the event you log out of the forums, and find you are unable to log back in with your current username, please use the email address you signed up with in this field, and your existing Password. If you cannot remember the email you signed up with, please feel free to contact Locitas, myself or any of our Admins to assist you.
  15. Wow your helmet turned out great Garrett, nice progress sir.
  16. Hi Geoff One of our IT guys will help you when they wake up in thier morning. Not sure why you are having the issue but if you have your original info for your account shoot me a PM and I'll see if I can reset your password.
  17. Dave's work is solid, so you wont have any problems there. One thing to note is commission builds frequently need resizing to fit perfectly because there is only so much you can do without having the trooper there with you when working on accurate size. Dave will ask for a series of measurements to get it as close as possible, but what you miss out on ultimately is the experience of building it yourself. There is a whole bunch of satisfaction that comes with assembling your own kit, I cant stress that enough. Helmet fans make a difference for sure, and there are several systems available including what I make locally in Australia, so shoot me a PM if Glen can't help you out locally, and I'll give you some info on what I can offer. As to hearing and mic/amp systems, many of us use these, I have hearing assist and run a microphone and Aker Amp for volume, which works well in crowds like conventions etc. @ukswrath makes some excellent products so check out his threads for price and availability. Icomm units add modulation, static bursts to the amp set up but can be a little synonymous with malfunctioning after about 12 months. What was the RS blaster worth?, you may have better options with high end resin printed blaster these days as the old Doopy Doos kit which many of us have are very hard to come by now.
  18. We have just updated the forum back end software Invision, so you may witness a few minor changes to the front facing forums, side bar information etc. Also while the slightly massive update occurs you may experience longer then usual page loading times. We appreciate your patience while this is taking place and our IT geeks work to return full functionality over the coming days.
  19. Have spoken with Walt and he is keen to get this kit added to the vendor list. Once he starts getting kits out there and we get the sort of feedback we have come to expect from Walt's armour, then we can look to adding this in as well. Looking forward to that build thread Lou. On an entirely separate subject, I noticed we don't have CrowProps (Gio) on the list for FOTK boots. I raise this as it seems you can not order FO TK boots from Imperial Boots currently, and Gio seems to be the only other option.
  20. Welcome to FISD Piers!! plenty of solid troopers that will help you out in Knightfall garrison. As to build threads, check out the ESB, link below https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/82-esb-build-threads/ Most armour trims up the same way, it is more about trimming it to fit your size/shape. Check out any of the ANH build threads as well (same armour with only a few differences, so just refer to the appropriate CRL for that. https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_esb Also take a look at our higher levels of accuracy. These are purely voluntary but it is always easier to start with the top level in mind, rather than to have to pull things apart to attempt mods later on. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/95-expert-infantryman-program/ https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/66-fisd-centurion-program/ Good luck with your build, and we look forward to your build thread.

  22. Yes you are correct , and was thinking about that today as I finished the ESB section and read down the list. It won’t be touched as it is already an archive and makes no sense to move or remove anything from it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
