There's a kid friendly troop next weekend to get this ready for... Sat 2nd Feb 2013 2. The Galactic Academy website and forum will be up soon for new submissions Front view Right view Left view Rear View Action shot Lids off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyTrigger[TK] Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I've tried to make the best of the components I have. This is a re shaped and repainted Rubies lid. Painted Hasbro E11 Blaster Homemade Holster Hand painted boots, new shaped shins and cover strips Re-strapped torso, new shoulder straps and cut down bells It's been a fun build thread. I'm looking forward to trooping with my son next week as a TK and my daughter as Jango Fett and my wife spotting for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddo[TK] Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Really nice job on this. The GA site is currently being revamped. In the next few weeks we will be back up and running. I'll be proud to accept this trooper I suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dday[501st] Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I was wondering what happened to the GA. I wanted to submit my sons in his TrooperMaster Jr. suit, but no links were working except facebook, so I just stopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyTrigger[TK] Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hi Dday, my son is 7 and 1.2m tall. The current TM junior was too big for him hence I went with this. Did you get the Current TM junior or one of the older ones? How big is your kid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dday[501st] Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 My son is 140cm at 7 as well, but he has super tall parents. the sizing isn't to bad, I just need a little bit of padding in some parts to fill them out since I wanted to leave room for him to grow. It is one of the brand new suits, I'm super happy with it, just looking forward to legoland here in Germany and CE2 this summer to let him get a taste of trooping, sore feet and roleplaying!

FunkyTrigger[TK] Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 That's great. As they grow so quick I totally understand that their suits can't be form fitted as they would outgrow it to quick and that would be such a shame.

FunkyTrigger[TK] Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 My son trooped with other Cadets today... He had his blaster set to stun, and managed to capture a princess He could appreciate the line "aren't you a little short to be a Stormtrooper?" He and I managed to show imperial strength together in capturing "Rebel Scum," Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theisaac Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 That is awesome bro! I am so jealous of these kits!!!! I went out and starting making a foam suit for my guys since we don't have anything close to this quality that I have found in the states. I am happy to live through you though my friend! Keep posting your troops! Isaac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
