I'm already signed up for my 1st event! Can't wait! Excited and nervous lol.

Please enable me for 501st access TK11257 501st Legion - Vader's Fist

I made it!!! TK-11257

I have the same exact suit from RSPM. I am also in the process of getting approved. Hope you don't have any issues.

I also ordered some helmet fans from Henry's Helmet Fans. Hopefully they will come in next week. When I was wearing my suit for the application photos, it got pretty warm in the helmet and the eye lens film was steaming up. I don't think it helped that I had just got out of the shower and my hair was still wet from the shower. lol

I got the fully commissioned suit from RS PropMasters so it came ready to wear. No assembly required. I have submitted my application and the required photos and am now awaiting approval. Thanks everyone for the encouragement and advice.

I received my ANH Stormtrooper suit and helmet December 23rd and 24th. I'm ready to start my application process and that's what I'm researching right now. Thanks for all of the advice. I did order a mannequin and am already trying to figure out where I can display the armor without it getting direct sun. Overall, I'm pretty excited and can't wait to get my application process started.

Hello. I'm just getting started down this rabbit hole. I have been interested in a Stormtrooper (ANH) suit for years but have never been able to get to the finish line with one. I've 3d printed a helmet and it came out ok but I just wasn't really satisfied with the finish and didn't really like the 3D printable armor I was able to find online. So, after years of wanting... I finally reached out to a couple people, one who is 501st and got some more direction and advice. I'm happy to say that I just commissioned the build of a Stormtrooper Stunt Pro Built Suit (ANH) through RS Prop Masters. I'm currently working on all the required measurements they need and will have that info to them by the end of day. RS Prop Masters is advising a 12 week lead time for the suit so, I plan on using the time to research more about the sound stuff (icomm/akers/etc) so I can get all of my ducks in a row for when the suit arrives from the UK. I have a friend that built an R2D2 years ago and he goes to a lot of charity type stuff with it and I've always thought it would be fun to go to some of those events with him, so that is what I'm interested in so far. I'm still exploring the 501st forums and trying to get a better feel for everything. Once I get my suit from RS Prop Masters I think I will be filling out an application for the 501st and go through that process. I'm pretty excited and anxious to get my suit and plan on getting a mannequin so I can display the suit when I'm not using it.
