Wompet

Mine took 4 weeks, but I did order it the first day they were available, so I was probably at the front of the line. As @MaskedVengeance stated, they’re $59.99 plus sales tax and shipping.

So this showed up a few days ago: Not the worse likeness (I don't think my nose is that big, though ...)

This was announced a couple of weeks ago, but I don't recall seeing it here: https://hasbropulse.com/pages/selfie-series I know some of us have gotten custom backing-boards and made custom figures, and now you can get a professionally made Black Series Stormtrooper figure of yourself. Available today in the U.S. (no dates on availability elsewhere unfortunately).

I'm no good at getting screen captures, but the newly streaming "Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi's Return" has some nice, clear shots of the Kenobi-style stormtroopers.

Thanks, @gmrhodes13. You would think that I would have remembered to look there.

Jason, I would go for one of Jimi's undersuits, but for the life of me I can't seem to find his contact info anywhere - here, the 501st forums, RPF, Facebook - I'm having no luck. As for the helmet - that's when Andy said "I'm tired of relaying information - talk to him yourself!" So I didn't get the helmet info before. If I had access to a 3D printer, I probably would print Nico's bucket. But I don't, so for now the plan is the Black Series conversion. If/when I get access to a printer, my priority is your redesigned belt boxes.

Just getting the BBB picture out of the way. I had been thinking about getting a Rogue One kit after finishing up a couple of other works in progress, but some unplanned weight loss has made my ANH-S TK a little loose, and this kit came up for sale on the 501st boards, so ... Armor: 850 Armorworks Helmet: 850, but I'll be doing a Black Series conversion (trust me, it will look better) Boots: Imperial Boots Gloves: Imperial Boots Neck seal: Imperial Boots, but will be replaced with one that fits better ... Undersuit: Still need to confirm Blaster: Came with an Imperial Arms kit, but I have a @trooper96 kit I plan on using instead I haven't done much with it yet. It's already been rough trimmed, which is good - for the most part. The original owner trimmed all of the teeth off of the front belt, so that required a replacement. They also had the forearms and biceps completely glued, which required some disassembly and reassembly on my part to install the velcro. And the shins ... well, see for yourself: At first I thought "Oh, both sets of shins open to the right - I'll have to fix that." Then I realized that they had glued the inner shins together as one set, and the outer shins together as the other. This has been fixed. What else - the cover strips have been added to the biceps and forearms (sorry, no pictures at the moment). I ordered shoulder straps from @BigJasoni's Etsy shop to replace the 850 ones, and bought a couple of ab closure kits as well (more on that later). And one last set of photos from an armor party (my first attending) earlier this month: A little ugly, but I was just getting a rough idea of where everything should sit. Hopefully I won't have to trim anything off of the ab/kidney. And one last thing for this first post - I would like to thank @11b30b4, @BigJasoni, @TheRascalKing, @TerribleBen, @Twelveravens, and @Imperial Valour . The detail that you guys put into your build threads has already been a lot of help.

So, what I'm getting from this is that if I want my R1TK build to represent the Stormtroopers shown in Rogue One/Solo/The Mandalorian and Kenobi, I need to buy an extra set of ab parts from 850 Armorworks and not paint the ab window/USB port. Well, if I must I must. @Parquette would you please re-post these blaster and holster shots? As far as I could tell, the holsters were simply ESB-style E-11 holsters, but additional details are always appreciated.

Not to further hijack the thread, but are you coming to the armor party on the 18th? I could bring my ANH-S TK bucket for you to look at. I’ve got @ukswrath’s hearing assist, speakers, and fans in it, with no problems.

Win lottery. Book hotel. Quit job and leave singing and dancing. Finish all the costume builds that I would want to take with me. Look into cost of chartered flight to and from London because #4. Run “Why should I pay for your trip to Celebration” contest. Wake-up, realize that everything above was a dream, and plan for Celebration 2024 (did someone mention Orlando?)

Greetings and Congratulations from the far left corner of Excelsior.

In case anyone hasn't seen it yet:

The links are all working now. Thanks.

Same here. I can see posts in those sections, so if you could do that it would be appreciated.

I'll start by saying that I haven't started a R1 build, but it's on my wish list. I found netting fabric similar to what you pictured in my local JoAnn's. If I remember correctly it only needed three layers to make it opaque. Just do a search for "nylon net."

Let's see - fix the belt boxes, repaint the helmet, assemble and paint the blaster ... hmmm, it's possible ... Or assemble my TFA FOTK ... and get it approved in a timely fashion ... Maybe I'll try for EIB #1001

Hello from Western New York! Yours will be the first R1TK in the Garrison, so for the Rogue One specific tips this is the best place to look. I'll start off with two things - the R1TK doesn't have a holster, so you don't have to worry about that, and there may be some surplus helmet pads available where you are.

Congratulations!

Anyone else notice that the shoulders, forearms, and shins are different between the top and bottom pictures?

The helmet and purpose made me think FO Purgetroopers.

This was just posted on our garrison's boards: <edit to remove personal details> If an admin could take a look and let him know what's going on, it would be appreciated.

Just referencing the clip above, and nothing else in the rest of the show - These Stormtroopers appear to be wearing R1TK style armor. I personally can't tell if the ear rank bars, traps, and tears are OTTK or R1TK, but Take a look at 0:27, 0:32-0:34, and 0:56-0:58 - I think those tube stripes are cut out, but it could just be the lighting. Or maybe I just want them to be cut out, because I feel that R1 buckets should be worn with R1 armor.

Nice to know that I’m not the only who thinks that.

The detailing is lacking on this last one - just including it for completeness:

"We just call 'im 'Jed'."
