Daetrin[Admin] Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 OK, this seems a really strange post in that we're only 57% of the way to the mythical 300, but I say to you that this is perfectly achievable. Think about it this way: -- if just 1 out of 10 Legion TK's went EI this year, we'd exceed the goal. -- if every EI helped one other Legion TK to go EI this year, we'd exceed the goal Why are we doing this? In the end it's about pride in our costuming. Stormtroopers are the backbone of the Legion yet in some respects are lagging behind other costumes in getting members upgraded. I'd like to challenge each and every one of our EI's to help a fellow trooper step up. If you look at the requirements even helping that out of the box FX trooper has never been easier. So, what are you waiting for troops? Vader's invitation? :vader: Troop on! Quote
matt black Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 Great idea Paul. I would love to help someone become EI. If I can help anyone in anyway, just ask. I have just sent a friend of mine who is a member here some small bits and pieces that he was finding it difficult to find in his country. I believe his goal is to go for EI. I'll give him a friendly nudge Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 I'm helping them to go centurion. Quote
Hawkeye[501st] Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 Thanks Paul! Thanks ROB!!!!!! Thanks so much!!! Quote
JohnBlackk Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 I already have someone in mind in my garrison, he is already setup, so I just need to take pictures of him suited up! Quote
Jorran Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 It's my hope that I'll be contributing to that number! I'm probably 40% through my build and everything is being done with EI (and, later, Centurion) in mind. Illness and a long vacation have slowed my progress, but there is plastic welder curing and a dremel cooling off as I type. Quote
1mpulseS0D Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 The only problem i will have is age I'm just 16 so can't join quite yet, though i'm aiming for Centurion with my armour so i get that as soon as i join in two years Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted June 4, 2011 Author Report Posted June 4, 2011 In March of 2010 we had 100 EI. In the 15 months since we've grown to 172 - that's over 10 a month! This time next year we should be at 300 with no effort, but wouldn't it be cool if we could do it this year? And then you can own it - a special memento for being the first 300. How cool is that? Quote
MartinSivertsen[501st] Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 I'll join you as soon as I get my gear. Shooting for Centurion, but EI at least. I want that "special memento"! Quote
OneWhiteWarrior Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 I too soon to hope join the EI ranks. Purchasing my Armor within the next few weeks and shooting for EI. Id love to be a part of the first 300!! Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted August 11, 2011 Author Report Posted August 11, 2011 Wow, we've hit a bit of a dry spell - not even cracked 200 yet. What's the holdup folks? What can we do to get this back on track? Free drinks? Quote
SCTrooper[TK] Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Sir! half a dozen parts and I am almost there maybe! http://i1094.photobu...hdetails025.jpg Edited August 11, 2011 by sctrooper Quote
Turtle84 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Posted August 11, 2011 Received my helmet today: http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=16421 Hoping to go EI on a TKC. Waiting until September so I will have the appropriate funds to start the armor. Quote
jnnfr72[TK] Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 I'm going for EI.... will have new pix after bestbuy gives me back my camera. I've had lots of help, and I appreciate it! I'm hoping to submit befiore OCT. It's my 1st build. ROCK ON! Quote
darksideemt Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 I'm on the waiting list for my armor and plan on aiming for ESB EI. Quote
n0c00lgamertag Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Only thing holding me up is I used pop rivets vs. screws on the ears. Still have three, do I have to pull and replace for EIB or will three painted rivets work??? Quote
dashrazor Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Only thing holding me up is I used pop rivets vs. screws on the ears. Still have three, do I have to pull and replace for EIB or will three painted rivets work??? you will need to replace the rivets for EIB, 3 screws are required in each ear for ANH stunt, one above and one below the ear bar and one at the base of the helmet. .. but it should be a simple fix I'm on the waiting list for my armor and plan on aiming for ESB EI. great! going EI out of the box is the way to go Quote
seantrooper[TK] Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 I'm just waiting to age! Quote
irocink33[TK] Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 I am thinking of working this after my build is done. I am in kind of a rush to get done for a troop next month, so in a pinch. Although once that troop is done, I can start working on EI. I already have alot of the components done for it. The dual snaps in the butt plate and one in the cod, the proper screws in the ears, etc. Soon, I'll put in for this, by the end of this year. Quote
Striker Posted September 7, 2011 Report Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) I wish I had the funds to get a new helmet. At this point all I need to do is change my helmet (FX) and I will be EIB ready ANH STUNT everything else is done. Actually I would love to achieve Centurion and all I would need to do besides change my helmet would be to add the butt/cod snaps and glue the sniper plate/remove the rivets. So I am so close but so far as I cant fore see me being able to afford a new helmet and or convince my family that I would need another other than the FX. So unless some increadible deals comes up i dont think I will get one soon and was hoping to get one that is both EI and Cent approved so I dont have to buy another. lol. Here is my FX helmet pictures http://forum.whitearmor.net/index.php?showtopic=14556 Edited September 7, 2011 by Striker Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted September 26, 2011 Author Report Posted September 26, 2011 Closing in on at leasting hitting the double ton. Only 19 EI left to go and we can at least do 200 by end of year. C'mon troops - Mason is bored. Give the man some work to do Quote
Trooper Q2[TK] Posted October 2, 2011 Report Posted October 2, 2011 We have a few members in CCG here in Oregon that I tell them they need to request.. I am working on them. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 2, 2011 Author Report Posted October 2, 2011 Good to hear! is starting to ask for extreme measures. Quote
senna1rossi[TK] Posted November 4, 2011 Report Posted November 4, 2011 ooooh, it may be tough to pull off by end of the year, but I'm gonna try... here i come, EI??? heh Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Posted November 4, 2011 We're darn close to 200 by end of this calendar year - what a cool achievement that would be! Quote
