Do you Ace hardware up there in the great white north? They have springs that will work if you stretch them out a bit. -Eric

Any really tall/big stormtroopers?
Darth Aloha replied to JimSchultze's topic in Hard Armor (General Discussion)
You can send Troopermaster (Paul) a private forum message and ask him: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/user/76-troopermaster/ -Eric -
Here are our costume requirements for your basic stormtrooper: http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_anh_stunt It states that an FX helmet may not be used for a new approval. Additionally it says: Note: The helmet is accurate in detail and proportion to official references. Many commercially available helmets or those considered disproportionate in size or shape are ineligible. -Eric

Aker wattage? 10w v 12w
Darth Aloha replied to Millar007's topic in Electronics for Helmets / Blasters
I have no idea. Mine sits behind my chest plate to be heard by the person I'm speaking to. Also being tall it's right at ear level for everyone else. Heh heh. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I say louder is better. Or at least the option to be louder. There will be a time when you want louder than the 10w can provide. I rock the 12w but I also like to be annoyingly loud. -Eric -

ATA belt, RT shin and TM thigh in the crap lighting of my place. RT shin compared to taller TM shin. Word. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

MTK is whiter than 1.5mm TM. But TM matches ATA pretty well. Both are creamy white. And TM's shins are taller than RT's even. I should take a photo at some point. -Eric -
BrinkHouse ANH TK Stunt Build [RT-Mod]
Darth Aloha replied to BrinkHouse's topic in ANH (Stunt and Hero)
Word. I should have added that I have ATA and TM plastic here too that does not match. They're both too creamy compared to the MTK, RT and WTF (his old batch of abs) I have here that are much more white white. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Hey Jim. It sorta depends on your proportions. I would say that RT-MOD works for someone up to a 46 chest and 40" waist without problem. The RT legs work well for 34" inseam. TM's shins are longer but a different color plastic. Have you thought about doing a Vader? And TyWebb is an imposing TD for sure. I can't wait to finish my sandie this year so we can tromp around and loom over people. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
BrinkHouse ANH TK Stunt Build [RT-Mod]
Darth Aloha replied to BrinkHouse's topic in ANH (Stunt and Hero)
Yep. Pretty darn close in the lighting of my apartment at least. Trooperbay's plastic bicep and RT mod shin in the crappy photo. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
That'll do just fine. Bless your heart. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Plaaaaastic spacemen. Costume club. Club! Hobby. Fun. Making fans and kids smile by wearing costumes. Please stop posting political opinions please, irrational or otherwise or I start banning people for a while. It has no place here on our forums. This sort of discussion is poison. If you want to post anything more on this subject I suggest doing so on the legion forums and keep it off FISD. Thank you. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Beware the eye sprain. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Trust us that the FO costume has way more parts and is way harder to put together than your average TK. I've done a bunch of OT TKs and I'm here to tell you that it requires way more skill (and time) that I was possibly capable of. So. Many. Parts. -Eric

LadyInWhite Phasma Build

Nope. I was addressing Ingrid's right hand squirrel, Ralf. I haven't thought of what manner of minion your are when you wrangle. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

A pirate walks into a bar with a big wooden ship's steering wheel down the front of his pants. The bartender says: "Cap'n? Do you know that you have a steering wheel in your pants?" The pirate says: "Yarrrr I know. It's driving me nuts!" -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Q: Why can't you hear a pterodactyl go to the bathroom? A: Because the "P" is silent! This may be my 5th or 6th post encouraging more levity and way less negativity. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And still unable to take a joke. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm just saying that we have no need for such negativity. It's counter productive and goes against why out forums exist. In a rare moment, Vern is right. I'm advocating for more levity and/or balls jokes. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haters hate haters who hate. We need moar ball jokes I say. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
