SapaWanmdi Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'm getting ready to order my first suit (so excited!) so this won't be a problem for a few months, but I'm wondering how to survive a convention without pockets. Any suggestions? I'm trying to have everything ready by august for an anime convention, and actually joining the 501st soon after that.... before the next convention here in november. But this leads me to having the issues of not being in the 501st for a place to change, and store stuff. i figure worst case i could have one of the friends in the group im going with help me out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech151[TK] Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 How big of pockets do you need? what are you looking to carry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrooperTim Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 You don't need to carry much. Get a neck wallet or modify you drop boxes. I'd say focus on building your armor at the moment, cause that's the main thing... and most fun part. i figure worst case i could have one of the friends in the group im going with help me out Have a buddy be your eyes and ears. Have them carry your stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray1134[501st] Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I store my glasses (because I can't wear them under the bucket) in my Thermal Det tube. I've got a pouch on a lanyard around my neck for my ID/cash/Debit card/hotel room key/etc. Normally I give my cell phone to my wife to hold, she's usually my spotter, but I'm thinking about going non-canon and just leaving it clipped to my belt. I don't try to carry too much on me because it's just in the way. Most of my stuff stays stashed in my armor tub while I'm in armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nassik Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 That's a great neck wallet (I own that very one). I used mine at C IV beneath my Jedi robes. I was um', undercover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehickey Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I made my own E-11 holster and put a big pocket in the back of it that can hold my wallet, or a camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirDenzington89 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hey Jim, You should just get that TK ready for Celebreation V in Orlando in August while you're at it haha. The E-11 holster pocket come in handy for sure. I have read about guys using the thermal detonator on the back as a carrying case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkTrooper[TK] Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 At San Diego Comic Con, I held my keys, wallet & camera all in my helmet. I stuck velcro on the backs of all of em and they all held up throughout the day. I just discovered the blaster holsters with the pockets. I think I'm gonna mod my holster to do that.

poisonfox Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 What a great idea! I'm doin' that. I made my own E-11 holster and put a big pocket in the back of it that can hold my wallet, or a camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
