Wheeljack Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Like for example your wallet, phone, watch etc? If yes where do you put it? Out of sight or within sight? Reason I'm asking is because sometimes I don't trust the storage area when our luggage are kept. It may not be locked up all the time and can be also shared by other costumers so i always carry my personal stuff with me when in armour. (OK I admit to buying drinks occasionally when the weather gets too hot!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTrooper Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) I've got a neck wallet that I keep in my tote just in case we don't have a secure changing area. It's also handy at conventions. ------------ Edited June 28, 2021 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheeljack Posted April 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) I assume it's hidden inside the armour right?

SuperTrooper Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 The one I have is all black and it hangs behind my chestplate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splattum[TK] Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) I like the neck wallet idea. I'll have to get one of those. You could give them to a trusted spotter to hold for you, or if your costume allows it you could put it in your thermal detonator or even in your holster.

bluehickey Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I built a big pocket into the back of my holster that I usually put my car keys in. I do really like the idea of that neck wallet though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holds what I need. Edited April 4, 2010 by MiDri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 well either way, it works great, though some times its a bit tricky to open, but that's good cuz you know it wont open on its own. but your lil box is sweet. lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrestonva[TK] Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 The best way to go is to use a trusted handler to carry your stuff. Barring that, I try to keep as many of my personal items - wallet, iPhone, etc. - in my locked car (or hotel room if I'm away from home at a con) as possible. Basically in costume I try to limit myself to my keys (car or hotel room), and those I keep in my hollowed-out thermal detonator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray1134[501st] Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I try to keep my personal belongings to a minimum. Normally, I would give most of my things to our handler (usually my wife), and depending on the event, I will have a similar hanging wallet setup around my neck and my armor tub is lockable. At a recent con, I had my phone on my belt, very non-canon. Unless LG and Verizon supplied the Empire with comlinks I also have my Thermal Det tube modified so I can keep my glasses in there.

Chunk[501st] Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Has anyone ever used the "box" in the back plate? Over in the Jolly Roger Sqd. I've seen some of our pilots make a fabric wallet or bag & secure it inside the back plate. :tie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 i store an extra set of batteries in mine, the part where it looks like two rectangles... just made a little storage space there... i plan to make a water pack for the hot days and put it in there. that or i'm going to put a fan in there to help keep me cool.

TK-5069 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 I velcroed an old wallet (similiar to a business card holder) to the inside of my chest plate. I only carry a few things, but have never had a problem with it coming off or anything falling out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 that's an awesome idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiDri Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 (edited) Here's my iphone carrier pouch I made on the inside of my ab plate. Eric has one too, but his bottom slip came out, we need to replace it. I'm using the iphone to take pictures, so i put a placeholder in there to show how it goes in. And for not canon events all my other stuff (Money, Keys, Credit Card, Drivers License) I put in this bad boy (not really applicable for TK) It goes on my belt right before my ammo packs. Nice thing about it is it snaps shut. Edited April 9, 2010 by MiDri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
