GoofTrooper

Looks like minimal effort went into those holiday troopers. OT TK with a vibro-axe and a Porg? I love Christmas and Star Wars and the two together have potential but these are not good. @gmrhodes13 Agreed. Your holiday TK is far better.

Congratulations FISD! This was a very exciting moment to be a part of! It makes me very proud to be an FISD member, Attache, part of the 1000 EI, and member of the 501st Legion. Thank you to everyone who has helped make this moment possible!

Congratulations Sebastian on being #1000! Congratulations to all the DOs and staff for putting in years of selfless work to make this happen! Congratulations to the other 999 EI troopers because without all of you this wouldn't be possible!

Hello Wayne, Welcome to FISD! I really enjoyed your introduction about how you got here. It's great to see that the piece about the 501st in the Mandalorian doc is inspiring others to become Stormtroopers! I love your excitement and enthusiasm about your build and I look forward to seeing your progress. Regarding the blaster. I use a DoopyDoos resin blaster and it does get very heavy after trooping for a few hours. I was also considering printing an E-11 for longer troops or troops where there is potential for my blaster to become damaged but I'm concerned that the printed blaster won't be very strong either. The posts above show that may be the case. Another option if you don't want to use a toy blaster is to get a rubber/foam one. However, I'm not sure about the availability of such blasters at the moment.

Thank you for the compliment on my armor, I appreciate it very much! My avatar photo was taken during one of my last troops before lock down started and it's one of my favorites for sure.

The anticipation is killing me!

Congratulation on EI #999! That's very exciting! You've got a great looking set of armor!

Congratulations Sven and welcome to the EI ranks! You made it to the first 1000! Great job!

Congratulations David and great work on your armor! Welcome to the EI ranks!

Congratulations on making it to the EI 1000! Nice work on making all the adjustments to your armor for EIB. Centurion is right around the corner!

Congratulations Trooper and awesome work! Welcome to the EI 1000!

Congratulations! You made it as a part of the 1000! Welcome to the ranks!

Could that be a Stromtrooper Commander shoulder bell?

Congratulations on your EIB approval and being part of the 1000!

Congratulations Trooper and welcome to the EI ranks!

Hello Craig and welcome! I don't have any answers to your questions but I enjoyed reading about how you got here and about your plans for becoming a Stormtrooper! I am currently in school working on my degree in electrical engineering so it's always inspiring when I meet actual engineers. I appreciate the three prime directives you have instilled in your kids, they seem like they're going to have a pretty bight future with you as their father. I really look forward to seeing your progress here on FISD!

Congratulations on your EI approval Trooper! Welcome to the ranks!

Congratulations on your EIB approval!

Hello Michael and welcome to FISD. You're about to embark on a very fun and satisfying project! There's no better feeling than suiting up for the first time and becoming the iconic Stormtrooper from right off the big screen, especially when you're the one that built it! Good luck on your journey to Centurion!

Hello Briannah and welcome! It's good to hear that you're turning your passion for Star Wars into building your very own HWT armor. I look forward to seeing the finished product!

Hello Andrew and welcome! I was gravely concerned when I saw Rubies and much relieved after I kept scrolling. Don't scare us like that!

Welcome to FISD Jake! Good luck with your research and saving up!

Hello Paul, welcome to the FISD. I'm impressed by the amount of research you have already done! I will definitely be following your build with interest once you get your kit!

What a cool story! Welcome to the 501st Legion Andreas!

Congratulations Trooper! Welcome to the 501st Legion!
