    Another thing you might consider is to ask that members here send him one of their personal trading cards.  Most of us have them and I'll bet many (myself included) would be happy to mail him one.  Might lift his spirits to be able to open the envelopes and collect them.  We have over 200 Garrisons/Squads/outposts worldwide, so you never know how many he would receive (or from where)!

     

    As Stormtroopers we have a tough plastic shell, but when it comes to kids that are ill we are all soft on the inside.  I think I can speak for us all when I say that we wish your grandson (and your family) all the best on this difficult journey.

     

    I along with others would gladly send him trading cards along with a patch or something along that line. Most of us have "Stormtrooper voice boxes" and could send a personalized message as well.

    I would guess I have between $1500.00-1700.00 into mine. Sounds like a lot but broken down in chunks it isn't bad. The biggest chunk is the armor. Have a look at the Vetted sellers list and go from there.

     

    First off Welcome to FISD!! 

    As Randy said you should expect to be in the 1500 / 2000 ball park when all said & done. But to reiterate the statement that once broken down it really isn't that bad and you wont build it all at once.  

    After doing your research on Armorers HERE and figure out what's best for you and purchase your shiny white ABS. Once that's done you can start planning, building & saving for all the other parts. 

     

    You'll find a ton of information and you can always ask any questions that pop up and we'll be happy to point you in the right direction.

    Hi Josh, 

    I currently have two sets of WTF Armor and have built them to EIB/Centurion standards. 

    If you have any questions feel free to ask away or shoot me a PM if your more comfortable with that. Keep in mind that WE'VE ALL BEEN THERE so you have no stupid questions and nothing is that far out of wack that you cant fix. 

    Walt also has some great build videos on his site as well and is active on his facebook page.

    Welcome Ashe,

    You'll find a ton of information here I would start our Getting Started page it should give you a pretty good idea of whats involved and also the community we have here and how willing everyone is here to help. 

    Another good read for those " a little short for a stormtrooper" would be Zel's post. Its an Anovos kit but the builds are the same, 

     

    Best of luck but it sounds like your in good hands with your Midwest Garrison mates. 

    We're here if you need a hand. 

     

     

  25. Never too old to start - my karate journey

    Congratulations Paul. 

    I remember taking the same journey with my daughter, it was fathers day and she had a take your Dad to class and 6 years later I was day 2 into my exam trying to figure out exactly how I got here. Two dans and a teachers exam later and I still remember my Master instructor saying that a black belt is just a white belt that didn't give up. Enjoy the journey however long it takes you.
