Welcome to Midwest Garrison, SDC75! Two questions out of the gate: Where are you located? And, building a TIE costume, have you also registered at the Jolly Roger Squadron (www.jrs501st.com), which is the detachment that governs the TIE costumes?

You should be able to get a TIE costume up and running fairly quickly, especially if you go the Reserve Pilot route, which you are assembling the other parts.

Sorry bout the intro. My name is Sean Crockett from Decatur and have been an avid Star Wars fan for years.
I work in a foundry so my days off are pretty up on the air some times. Im 41 years old and heard about the 501st from a friend of mine whose chold was in the hospital and was inspired and wanted to be a part of tthis organization.
The TIE costum acrually is pretty much done i just got to add a couple things to the helmet such as the discs on the sides of it and to paint the comm badge
As in joing the Jolly Rodger I have tried but come up on aa road block when it asks if you are human as that section is currwntly down or was the last time i checked

Hi Sean, and again welcome.

You're not the only person who's experienced issues with the bot check. Last time I was told about it, I loaded up the site incognito (so it wouldn't auto-log me in). I loaded up the registration process. The bot check should only be a pull-down menu, which you select "Yes". There also is the input line of what year Star Wars was released (answer, of course, "1977"). I did just check again, and I am seeing all of it loaded, but I don't want to register another time, so I can't officially complete it.

Is it hanging up after submitting those?
