  1. First troop of the year at Toronto Comic Con. Another huge step for me getting back in trooping with Garrison involving large crowds. Up to 36 troops in total so far
  2. Have a ANH Stormtrooper from WTF And still in box Tank Trooper from Imperial Surplus
  3. Final troop for 2023. Starlight Foundation Canada at Toys'R'Us. Great troop and huge step for me to troop indoors.
  4. Sorry for the long delay in responding been a bit hectic and tough here. Added to more troops so far this year, New Dundee ( just outside Cambridge, Ontario ) Community Fireworks 2023 and Gotham Central Comics and Collectables Anniversary Bash 2023. Slowly getting back into trooping

  6. Hi Dan Welcome; good to see another Canadian From Brampton here
  7. My TK number is 73705. Used number that would IMO match letters in my last name
  8. My nickname is Blaster and this how I got it. At Toronto Comic Con 2019 (Fan Expo's March show), Dan Fogler was one of the guest. It was arrange the he would come to our booth so we provided an escort: 2 or 3 Stormtroopers, Vader, couple of Officers and 3 handlers. Upon arriving at our booth he started to do his shtick; jumping onto Jabba's throne, sticking DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle into Jabba's mouth. Then shouting out "force hold" a blaster would be handed to him where he would say "pew-pew" then toss it aside, he did it a couple of times. He then turns to me and "force hold", I hand him my E-11; wasn't going to be the "sore-thumb" and not participate, where he then as he's about to do his "pew-pew" I hear him say not this piece of crap or something along those lines and tosses my blaster aside (my blaster at the time was metal and plastic and a gift) it breaks in 3 places. At that point it went dead silent and he realized what he had done and picks up a piece goes to me and offers to pay for it (yes he made restitution for it). Now he did have a video of the incident on his instagram page but all post there have been taken down for whatever reason. Command staff was able to get me a new E-11 through his making restitution but never again will I or anyone else inour Garrison hand him a prop. So if you read this this is how I got my nickname but also be wary about handing him a prop. On a lighter note I made a patch to commemorate what had happen.

  10. Was getting into first hour then walked out. Reason for walking out....3 smeg-heads behind me kept talking; "this" is going to happen, "see this happens next". After asking them to stop talking 3x I had enough and walked out. Will try to see it again. But from what I saw in the first hour had me captivated
