  1. I hope it is okay to contribute my own reference pics... + Note these guys are wearing MP40 pouches and drop boxes + A couple of them are armed with E-11s, but almost all of them are rocking the DLT-19 + Throughout this storyline, pauldrons indicate rank with orange being sergeant (and possibly higher) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/CorvusTortus/hwt03_zpsn9rqq1vm.jpg
  2. I've seen a some E3 gameplay from EA Battlefront II and a few notes: (1) Unlike EA Battlefront I, there is a true "Heavy" class ala the original Battlefront II. In the Clone Wars era match they played, the Heavy had a selection of standard heavy rifles that were cross-era (one clone was using a TFA FO rifle). Each class also has a perk system that is customizable. The Heavy at E3 could activate a personal shield, or switch over to a minigun/chaingun. There will definitely be more gun and perk options, maybe even in the way of micro transactions. (2) The Heavy did not have a jetpack. None of the classes that I saw ever used a jetpack. Instead, the jetpack was a character you could unlock with points earned in-game, called "Jet Clonetrooper". It was an ARC-style character. DICE clearly intends the Heavy to be a sluggish tank class, so I'd be surprised to see a jetpack option. I could definitely see the jetpack being a perk option for the other classes, however. (3) Still no images available of the OT Heavy class or whatever the OT-equivalent of the jetpack character will be. (Source for E3 gameplay)
  3. I have both Battlefront 2 and EA Battlefront on my PC that is running a 1070k, so I can provide quality screenshots (and video) of both if needed. But screenshots of EA Battlefront shouldn't be the basis of changing the HWT CRL because (1) no matter what faction you are on, you can equip the jetpack and any weapon you so desire to any character skin you've unlocked. You can have a Bespin security guard with a Jawa gun and a jetpack, if that's what you want. You can have a Biker Scout with a jetpack and Han Solo's blaster, if that's what you want. At any given moment, a shoretrooper armed with a Tusken Raider sniper rifle might spawn next to Emperor Palpatine, while a Rodian X-Wing pilot with a DLT-19 kills his partner that is a sandtrooper armed with Boba Fett's rifle before jetpacking to the safety of Nein Numb's squad-shield. Oh, and all of this can happen on Hoth. LOL. And (2), there is no HWT skin in EA Battlefront. The closest thing to the HWT is a skin titled Stormtrooper (Orange), which appears to me to be an idealized sandtrooper (no ab buttons, high brow -- weirdly the MP40 pouch does appear in-game, but not at the character screen) wearing a ANH:Special Edition backpack. Red, white, and black pauldron variants are also available. I took screenshots of the Stormtrooper (Red) variant just for fun... You'll see that my character has the DLT-19 equipped, but I could just as easily have equipped any other gun, Rebel or Imperial.
  4. I'm 5'6 with an Anovos build incoming, so I'll have to add this to my references. Looking good so far!
  5. I had a personal best, yesterday, clocking in 7.62 miles on my Fitbit! I'm at about 6.3 miles, today.<br><br> ...and I weighed-in at 164. Lost weight!<br><br> Edit on 6/26<br><br> Lost another four pounds. It's getting harder and harder, ugh.
  6. Just to be clear, the Heavy Weapons Trooper is not in EA Battlefront, as there are no classes in the game but unlockable skins. Also, the jump pack is a random perk that can be applied to every skin in the game, including rebel pilots, imperial officers, sandtroopers (as seen in Uruk's picture), rebel generals, bespin security guards, etc.
  7. Anovos is the cheapest, but orders take several months. What I have done since ordering in October is purchase most of my accessories (boots, gun, etc.) and study Tony's build obsessively.
  8. This makes me really excited for the DLT-19 I've got ordered. Looks great.
  9. It would be chaos. The local ghostbuster group permits non-canon customization of characters and the result is that two guys look like they walked off the set and the other five or six look like really bad fan-fiction cosplay because they're all trying to one-up and look cooler and more unique than the person next to them.
  10. The upcoming EA Battlefront will apparently be a class-system rather than perks system, so there is a very good chance we get an updated Heavy Weapons Trooper by November. (But in the trailer, they've got a ROTJ(?) stormtrooper wearing an ANH:SE sandtrooper backpack)
  11. http://i1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc465/metallorgy/HWT%20hi-def/HWT1.jpg From another angle.
  12. The TD is having a major wardrobe malfunction with the codpiece floating up. Shame about the lack of turnout. I've always admired working dogs, I've got a German Shepherd rescue that I've thought about training for therapy and hospital visits.
  13. I'm going to follow this thread. Some months ago, I was told by the folks at TKBoots that 1.25-2" lifts probably wouldn't be very comfortable.
  14. Hey guys, I asked Paul if I could submit a ribbon design for the Master Armorer Program and he suggested I post the designs here for everyone to see and sound off. I thought for the Master Armorer ribbon color scheme, it would be appropriate to pay tribute to E6000. For the 2nd and 3rd awards, I went with a silver and gold anvil rather than the more traditional star and wreath. My illustration skills are pretty lacking, but I've also included a patch design -- it is rough but conveys the idea. What do y'all think?
  15. I cannot remember if I already posted, but I'm 5'6 and when I first ordered my TK kit from Anovos, I was 182. I'm down to 168. Weight goal is 145-150ish.
  16. I've got a pretty legit Ghostbuster costume with a scratch-built Proton pack that looks nothing like the movie but gets the job done. And I've been waiting on Anovos to ship me a TK kit since October.
  17. Just ordered a DLT-19 from Hyperfirm. I'm fixin' to be a short trooper with a big gun!

  18. I'll keep an eye on this. The quandary about the benefits of disassembling versus integrity of the build is interesting, I'm not 501 yet so I haven't thought of it.
  19. I have an Anovos on order from October ($515 shipped) and limited funds presently, otherwise I'd jump on this. The extra $200 is probably worth it in quality and actually having it in a reasonable timeframe with some semblance of customer service.
  20. I ordered in October and like you, I'm still waiting. But I'm using this time to try to lose some weight. I'm 5'6, 170. I need to get down to 140 or so to look proportionate.
