2019-12-20: WFAA Good Morning Texas
We had a chance to join the local TV ABC-affiliate WFAA to do some promotion for The Rise of Skywalker! Here I am helping out with the weather report.
2019-12-22: Dallas Sidekicks 12/22 GameFor the last troop of 2020, we escorted Mike Quinn (Nien Nunb) during the Dallas Sidekicks game.

2019-10-29: Star Wars Reads 2019 - Texas Scottish Rite Hospital For Children
This was a great event. We got to visit the Texas Scottish Rite in Dallas to hang out with some kiddos who are staying there.
2019-11-09: HAF's Annual Dallas GalaThe keynote of the event explored the intersection of Hinduism with Star Wars. Neat stuff!
2019-11-24: Leo's Make-A-Wish RevealWe had a chance to be part of Leo's Make-A-Wish reveal! Not only did we reveal his wish, we also presented him with an honorary membership to the Bounty Hunters Guild, as well as a special message from a special bounty hunter in The Mandalorian!
2019-12-07: Dallas Holiday ParadeLoved doing this parade last year, so back at it again! Love having all these TKs together!
2019-12-14: Dallas Mavericks 12/14 GameThis was a very long troop. Highlight - we hung out with game attendees, pretended to be statues to scare Mavs players (ended up on ESPN, almost half a million views on Facebook!), and made our first TikTok video!

Hello there!
Like others have said before, the place to go for Sandtrooper resources is the MEPD forum.
http://forum.mepd.net/index.php
The builds are of course similar, and I've seen people doing their build threads both here and there, so starting a build thread on here is probably a good idea. For all tips on weathering though (and the Move Along Captain is so iconic!), def hit up the MEPD forum.
Also, there are no Centurions with MEPD - level 3 equivalent is SWAT where you emulate an on screen trooper (like what you want to do!).
Good luck with the build! It'll be loads of fun.-

Thank you for the update! Excited to see the progress. How was the experience pulling the helmet together?

Looks like you might want to request detachment access here

2019-10-05: MDA Muscle Walk of Dallas 2019
This is a great troop that I did last year (see troop 12), so naturally I trooped it again this year! Got to the venue bright and early, and saw hot air balloons take off nearby - super neat. We had a chance to take pictures with the families there for the walk, firefighters, as well as the local marching band / cheering squad!
With this troop, I hit 50 troops with my garrison, and 35 troops as a TK!

2019-09-28: Dallas Autism Speaks Walk
Just me and a Jedi hanging out at the Dallas Autism Speaks Walk. This woman wanted to paint my bucket blue!
Fun aside - it's always hilarious to share changing rooms with other folks ... we shared a changing tent with the SONIC Cherry Limeade and Coney Dog mascots. And Chester # 7 (apparently there are ten of them?) from Cheetos.

Make sure you sign up on our garrison website and introduce yourself - http://www.stargarrison.com/forums/forum.php
Also, if you are on Facebook, make sure you join our recruit page - very active folks on here who can help answer questions as well! (We also post armor parties here often) https://www.facebook.com/groups/296336407050926/ -
Welcome, Clay!
Where in Texas are you located? We have armor parties often and people willing to help, always good to see a new recruit! -
Yup, same here!My garrison counts each day of a multi-day event as a separate troop. -
2019-08-31: Texas Rangers Star Wars Days 2019
This is the last year the Texas Rangers will play at the Globe Life Park in Arlington, so of course we had to come out for Star Wars night! The crowd was great as usual, and we had a chance to get on the jumbotron a few times. We didn't track down that many photos, but here's a shot of all of us at the getting ready area.

2019-08-30: Dallas Symphony: Empire Strikes Back
It's been a while since the Dallas Symphony has requested us to appear, so this was a special one! It's one of those screenings where they show the movie and the orchestra played all the accompanying music. We took pictures with concertgoers as they walked into the building. What a great troop!

2019-08-15: SW Under the Stars: A New Hope
The Alamo Drafthouse hosted an outdoor movie screening of A New Hope. This being August in Texas ... was a ridiculously hot troop. We had to wait until the sun went down and cooled a bit before we started walking around taking pictures with folks. Representing here in this group photo!

Since we're just playing catch up for now, I'm going to put all the photos in this giant post. Will then post photos and descriptions from other troops as they happen

This might be of interest to you. I did a bit of research on this a few months back, too, and had this bookmarked: http://www.blizzardforce.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=3290&p=24947&hilit=Blaster+difference#p24947

Hi Rob! You're in my neck of the woods. There is an armor party coming up on 3/31 in Richardson. PM me if you're interested in learning more - can work on the armor with a few folks!
HOWTO: Removable/interchangable holster w/ snaps
in Tutorials, Tips and HOWTOs
Posted
Since I'm stuck inside because #corona, I decided to follow this tutorial and make one of a belt for the ANH Stunt. Now I can swap out my belts easy!
A few addition from my learning this afternoon:
This is a visualization of "step 2" from Brien's instruction above - "placing your snap on the inside of the belt facing armor and push a pop rivet through the opposite side"
Thank you, Brien!
