Just wanted to introduce myself...I've been stalking/researching on FISD for months. I've always wanted to have my own TK armor and have recently ordered an ANH Stunt custom build from Troopermaster (TK Props) in the UK. Looks like the build is almost done and it should be shipped this week! It comes with the full armor, helmet, belt, holster, gloves and thermal detonator. It would be fun to learn to build my own armor kit, but between my job in engineering and a real estate business (and maintaining a patient/tolerant/happy wife ), there just isn't time to take on a long term build. I ordered boots this week, but am currently researching manufacturers for the E-11 blaster, neck seal and audio/fan helmet kits. There's so many options with helmet audio kits and fans!
My ultimate goal will be to get my armor approved and join my local 501st, the Great Lakes Garrison (Michigan). I'll also be attending ICCC this year in Nashville in May and would love to wear my armor if I can get it completed and approved prior to.
Thanks for taking a minute to read my introduction and I look forward to learning more from FISD...I've already learned so much on here!
