  1. Looks like this suit is up for sale again at Studio Auctions, with even less info than previous... https://www.studioauctions.comstormtrooper_501st_28__ensemble_from_rogue_one-lot1001.aspx I'm still so curious as to the authenticity and the story behind it if anyone has anything else to share.
  2. 95. Live Like JoJo Walk - San Clemente, CA - Sun. 10/20/24 (ANH-S #65, FTE #74) And a silly one for fun:
  3. *WRANGLED - The Bradley Rofer Baseball Tournament - Coto De Caza, CA - Fri 10/18/24 Wrangled this one with my son so that my wife (the Jawa) could sneak a troop in before the census closes - it was her first since we had our son late last year and was a great event to support!
  4. *Los Angeles Comic Con - Los Angeles, CA - Sat. 10/5/2024 Had a very successful Imperial patrol at Los Angeles Comic Con with TK-57899 "KC Grim", TK-62345 "Dsposat0", TK-42128 "equuspolo", myself TK-61490 "TheRascalKing", and TK/SL-88667 as our Vader! We didn't see any other classic Stormtroopers there today so we caused quite a stir in the floor while checking for Rebels! 📸: Giselle C./Teddy F. or Justin K. with edits by KC G.
  5. Let's gooooo! So happy to see another Rogue One/New Era style build of this high of a caliber come across the boards! I've been following along closely and this is one of the most well built and accurate suits I've seen in a hot minute and Mike has done exactly what I would, and plan to, do to refresh my ROTK kit. Best of luck, @MikeRadnessbut this should sail through and be a fantastic example for others
  6. This one is an early Rogue One helmet. I welcome an admin to do so.
  7. Correct - hopefully you're pointing this out just as another way in which the new pauldron has improved over the original commissioned one Okay just a few more before I find time to put everything on again...
  8. 94. Orange Public Library Comic Con - Orange, CA - Sat. 9/14/2024 (ANH-S #64, FTE #73) It's the Crocs and the confidence for me
  9. Et voila. If no objections, I'll finish the final gluing and hopefully the next time you see this will be with the full armor and helmet!
  10. Super. Cut and painted! Will let the paint dry fully and then get gluing for final assembly. Previous two attempts for comparison.
  11. Templated up and feeling better about version number 3 of the center connector. The center panel looks a lot closer and the overall shape was changed to better suit the new angles, but needs to be at least that long to cover the chest armor indent. I also plan on mixing the grey paint a bit darker this time. I went pretty easy on the glue to avoid it bleeding out from under the red panels, but I do need to go back and CA or leather glue all the corners that have the more aggressive bends in them as well (can see it at the top). Finally, you can't see them, but I pulled up the velvet lining and epoxied two large, round neodymium magnets underneath, so the front of the pauldron is held down by the same magnets that secure the chest, and strong bar magnets in the back. This allows the pauldron to click into place easily and securely but still move some with my arms, but it always wants to return "home". Making some progress again and will cut the connector out of leather next if it looks good. I'm not happy until everyone agrees it's ready for a CRL!
