Thanks Ron! You're almost there!

I'm definitely hoping for #2!!

Thanks Glen!

Sorry Aaron, you just failed Fanboy 101.. haha jk. Jannick, did you mean that this would be the best news since Kershner directing ESB in 1980? If so, I agree!

Get on it, TREV!! Thanks, Caveman!!

Here's the thread you're looking for.. Ongoing run of 6 different pouch styles, canvas and leather. http://forum.mepd.net/index.php?showtopic=10805&page=1

Thank you fellow troopers! And thank you Steve, for the kind words! I'll definitely be making the suggested improvements for centurion. - Lining up the right side ab and kidney plates with no overlap - Tightening up the TD clips - Trimming the tops of the thigh cover strips - Silver paint weathering on the E-11 Thanks again troopers! Feels good!

Nope. Very inaccurate. The cap & back looks like FX, but the faceplate doesn't(?).. Cod is separate from ab plate.. Sniper knee plate looks way off... I'll stop there. I'm guessing FX recast. Anyone looking to join the 501st should stay FAR away from this!

The bottom screws will bring the ears in a little too. Not all the way, but some.

Thanks fellas!

Looking good!

Yes, ebay is to be avoided for the most part. But, as Steve said, there are a few good, honest sellers there. Here is one of them. http://www.ebay.com/itm/271493770394?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 MTK Armor out of San Diego. He's sold 3 kits in the last 24 hours, and only has 1 left! I believe he uses the CAP molds (same as ATA) with some minor changes, if I'm not mistaken. Same guy that runs trooperbay.com. A reliable seller. Good luck!

Thanks Matt!

Oh no! Sorry to hear that. I used a small dab of E6000 on each nut and bolt. Works great.

Looks great so far!

I glued my elastic tie-downs to the back-plate, not the shoulder elastic. While the tie-downs are required for centurion, they aren't necessarily essential to hold the bridges down. The bend of the plastic forces it to rest on the back-plate nicely.

Looks like your shoulder bells could use a little adjusting. I had a similar problem with mine that I solved by shortening the length of the strap from the shoulder bell to the elastic under the shoulder bridge. The shoulder bell almost touches my shoulder bridges. I also tightened the under-arm elastic so there was no slack at all. There should be as little of a gap as possible between the front of the shoulders and the chest plate. Other than that, great job trooper!

Great newsletter! Thanks Daetrin for that informative look into the detachment history. I know I'll be taking my EIB pics this weekend! I LOVE the shirt design! Simple and perfect!

WOW! Better start saving now... HA!

Jango is out! Wow. Looks amazing! But, considering their Star Trek TWOK Admiral Kirk Uniform is a little over $2,000 (for an all fabric costume)... I can’t imagine what that Jango is going to cost!! ..With all that leather work, armor, and helmet.. AND the blasters! Eagerly awaiting pics of their TK!!

Awesome! Thanks Aaron! Anovos just posted a pic with a profile view of their Jango Fett to their Instagram. Looks pretty damn good! I’d love to see a close-up of that one! It looks like they might be keeping the prices under wraps during C2E2.. signs say “retail price - TBDâ€. But we’ll find out next weekend when pre-orders start..

I'd rock the Bespin Han Solo outfit they're doing! I'm really curious to see how the stormies and Jango turn out.

Nice!! Good purchase! Looking forward to your build thread.
