Hello Michele !
As Ed stated we will be at the Maker Faire at the Henry Ford Museum on July 25th and 26th.
There you will be able to see what goes into building your kit and to meet most of the Great Lakes Garrison members.
Welcome aboard !

As Sylverbard said, NOVUS polish and even Meguiar's Car Polish works great as well.

As you can see above, pretty much everyone attaches things inside of the helmet using Velcro.
You can attach the Velcro to the painted inside of the helmet without any real difficulty.
Here is a picture of the inside of my bucket when I was almost done with my recent upgrades:
The inside was painted before anything was installed, Velcro is stuck to the inside of the helmet, and everything else is stuck on the Velcro!
Show-Off !

Thanks, I'll keep my eye on the sale forum. So there's no place currently that just sells (good) ones? Just gotta watch for the private sales?

Just keep an eye out for HYPERFIRM in the for sale section .. you wont be disappointed.
I have the HYPERFIRM DLT-19, T-21 and E-11 and couldnt be happier !

Not sure about the corrective eyewear issues. I've seen troopers use sports prescription glasses or affix extra glasses inside the helmet. What I can definitely tell you is that if anyone shorter than 3 feet tall gets closer than 2 feet away from you, you will not be able to see them.
True what Clint says ... Any small-ish child gets within a few feet of you, you wont see and is why most Troopers have "Handlers" .. My wife ( who was my handler this past weekend ) did a lot of "subtlety" getting my attention to direct me towards a child that i could not see.
Another point is .. You can see more when you ONLY have your helmet on ... once you put your chest plate on .. the range of motion you head has changes.

Todd was nice enough to bend down a few times.. LOLAwesome. I love doing the Walk For Wishes. Of course, here, I am the only trooper. But, at least there isn't anyone to stand next to me and prove I am short for a trooper.

I have a few photos from my first troop.
It was with Todd - " DEVILMAAN " and I must say .... I had an absolute BLAST !!
Seeing those kid's faces is something I'll never forget !
What made it better... I had Devilmaan "Show me the ropes !"
We were even on live TV ! ( WXYZ Channel 7 Detroit )
Anyway, here are a few ...and yes ... I DID get the " Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper " lol
R4ZORBL4DE - Short Trooper
Devilmaan - Taller Trooper

Can't beat HYPERFIRM !!X2! I just pulled the trigger and got mine in last week! It feels indestructible, very kiddo proof for trooping and looks amazing!
-
.... and took delivery of my new Hyperfirm DLT-19 !!
If you are looking for a GREAT trooping weapon, you MUST look into getting a HYPERFIRM.
Practically indestructible and light weight !
Slavefive puts out AWESOME products ..

Ask your Garrison Merch Officer he will help.If you are looking for FISD Detachment Trading Cards, you must Request 501st Status and then look for the thread in the 501st sectionThis will also need to be move to the correct forum.

lmfao. i wish i would have known that before lol!!! I'll see if i can make it work...
Well, the ears look thick enough that you may be ok ..
-
Welcome from Shelby Township !
-
Hey David...great job but I think your ears are attached the wrong way around. As in the right should be the left and vice versa.
Hans is correct .. the ears are on the wrong sides
On a positive note .... it looks like you have plenty of material left on the ears to make the switch.
And if that doesnt work .. ATA comes with 2 sets of ears .. Thankfully ...

Coming along nicely !
