Sgt JB Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Posted October 6, 2009 When the EIB requirements were on the webpage there was a footnote that Hasbros got 7 to cover the holes, when we transfered it back to being forum based it must have gotten omitted. gotcha, will get that corrected...OH SMITTY!!!!

Smitty Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 Ahhhhhh! Seeing the pictures now I see the T track dilemma. There is some confusion on T track when it comes to hasbro blasters. Theres only supposed to be 6 T tracks but the hasbro blaster has the wrong row covered up so will end up with 7 fins total. Some people correct hasbros mistake by sanding off the incorrect fin and drilling a row of holes in its place and then covering the row on each side with 2 pieces of T track for a total of 6 but if you don't correct hasbro's mistake you end up with 7 tracks in all. PM me your shipping information and I will send you the piece that you need to gain your EIB status. Great work on your armor by the way Quote

I was hoping it was good as is, but I'll get it fixed up ASAP --------- oh, and Thanks for the compliment Smitty :-) Edited February 3, 2021 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2021 Quote
Smitty Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 I sent you two pieces of T track just in case you boo boo the one piece. Dropped them off at the post office a half hour ago Quote

Sgt JB Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Posted October 6, 2009 So I submitted my application, here's what I got back from my GML : "My apologies, I didn't realize that was you on the boards. As far as I am concerned, You pass with flying colors. I will mark your account to "ready for Duty" Great Job Ryan " YEA!!! Quote
Smitty Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 Congrats on your 501st acceptance! EIB here you come! Quote
Sgt Steve Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 If this is your very first build? Then Very good, and why can't he get EIB with the blaster he has now? You don't mean he has to get one T track done to get it? One silly track? (seem's a weee bit picky to me) Quote

You don't mean he has to get one T track done to get it? One silly track? (seem's a weee bit picky to me) yes it's my 1st build. just over 2 months. Recieved my armor Aug 3rd, applied Oct 6th. Not too shabby. Quote
dougefresh Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 Awesome news on your acceptance, Eric. Welcome! You knocked it out of the park, dude. Really nice job! Quote
Sgt JB Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Posted October 6, 2009 Awesome news on your acceptance, Eric.Welcome! You knocked it out of the park, dude. Really nice job! Now I get to start doing what I joined these boards for in the first place...to be a trooper helping other troopers. I have a few small ideas I did in my build that I'm going to post that made my life easier. Nothing ground breaking, but I think are some neat ideas. Now that I know they work, I'll be getting some things up soon!!! Quote
NAZGÛL Posted October 12, 2009 Report Posted October 12, 2009 Grats man! You wear that armor very nice and can be proud. Quote
runewolf Posted October 12, 2009 Report Posted October 12, 2009 Great job man! Hopefully not too far behind you if I can get the weather to co-op. Quote
Sgt JB Posted October 12, 2009 Author Report Posted October 12, 2009 Thank you Gents. Allen, I'm looking forward to seeing your build all done. Quote
