    White leather is also a good option and a hell of an improvement over abs strips.

    I will second that. Signed up to the forum , always good to learn more/ the truth about props and their history.

    Talking of tall troopers, anyone know whats happened to Steve Tk4999? Not see any sign of him for a while.

    23rd May '88 The day my mum died. Kind of a way to reclaim the numbers from being bad and commemorate her, if that does not sound too strange.

    Ditto. Even louder if you do the motorola speaker mod. OT . You using 9v or have you gone the 12v route Mark?

    If your shot wearing a bullet proof vest it will still knock you on your a very impolite person, same with being shot by a blaster in TK gear. It may not kill you but it will knock you for six. Thats my theory anyway, but it could be coz its just a film.

    Spray it with Mr Sheen /Pledge. Let it soak for 10 mins. Peel straight off. Used this method dozens of times.

    The main body could be an old style toilet pull chain handle. The "arms" do look like door /cupboard handles.

    I have signed up and paid for one of the current batch of 50. Placed order in March and the ETA is approx 7-8 weeks from now. They may take a while but I have yet to see/hear a better product out there, and John takes care of his customers re emails etc.

    I would add that the reason for the depatures is not due to internal conflicts etc but due to an overwhelming workload. The UKG is the busiest garrison in the world , and the behind the scenes workload sadly reflects this.

    Yeah, there is a big back log at the moment. One of my mates has been waiting for 3 1/2 months to get her Tusken cleared, but the back log is now being dealt with . Trust me though mate, it will be well worth the wait.

    Not the one with the E11 in his hand, he's used to being on 2 wheels I assure you. Incidentaly, the guy filming it has now earned the nickname " Butthead" due to the huh huh huh huh you can hear from off camera.

    Ding ding ding. Spot on mate, we get pledge over here too and I "believe" they are almost identical in ingredients.

    Too much use of Novus can remove the top layer ( ie the UV protection) leading to yellowing. Once its been polished up I would recommend just using a house hold spray polish like Mr Sheene to keep it clean and shiney. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Sheen

    Wel, its painted and fitted. What do you all think? (please excuse the stae of my workdesk in the background )
