Good Morning,
My detachment access fell off the forums for the Detachment only topic. Can I get that corrected? I wasn't able to see QA this year.

I got my 3d printed F11D via Heston. He's good to work with!

I have an Alpha First Order from Anovos. So far so good on the ABS pull!
However, buyer beware due to wait times. They've gotten absolutely horrible with delivery and customer support is full of canned responses. Hubby ordered a costume that was promised for delivery in late quarter 2015 wasn't received until January 2017. -

Chances of this are slim to none for $350. I'm still under an NDA regarding my First Order, but I can safely say I've put in well over $2k between the armor kit, undersuit, gloves, boots, accessories.
I don't think there are too many vendors out there working on the kit/armor, so that drives the pricing up. -
Yup.... hubby ordered ESB Han from them in April 2015 during Celebration Anaheim. He was told it was going to deliver late portion of 2015.
He didn't get it until February of this year. Almost a two year wait, which I think is ridiculous for a licensed company.
They do deliver, but they take forever. Their customer service is subpar and full of canned replies and the runaround.
I find this disappointing as I had no issues with Anovos during the Alpha wave of FO TK's, but there was also a marketing/promotion rush behind that. -
I also tend to look at trooping as if I were at work. My employer would fire me on the spot for drinking while on the clock. (Or showing up drunk.) I can't fathom drinking while representing the Legions while in costume and 'on the clock'.
I can drink up AFTER I'm done representing.-

Hubby is 6'2" and had a TK. He didn't have any fit problems with height. He did have to center the thigh armor between hip and knee so it looked proportionate.

Great to hear! So ANH tk under garments, the only ribbing is the neck seal, the rest can be any type of compression black?
Correct! Amazon is a great resource, so are sporting goods stores. I picked up my compression undergarments at a local REI and used the store brand.

Back in January. So considering the 3d printing process, this was fully assembled and finished. Not a bad turnaround timeframe IMO!

Fantastic post and superb tips!
There are also heat gear styled caps, towels and skull caps that you can soak in water and wear under your bucket or costume that will help use your own sweat to keep you cool. I'm in CO which is a drier climate and the UV rays are stronger at this elevation. Lack of humidity makes it easy to underestimate what the sun will do to you when outside.
I'll echo what others said, don't be a hero. Also, listen to your body.
Stay safe, troopers!
