I have a DC-15 clone trooper long rifle that I don't need. I bought it off Greedo from Clonetroopers.net a couple of years ago for $270. It's all wood and breaks down into two pieces, which I kept that way (the thing is huge!). He did say that if you want to make it one piece you can drop some CA gl...

If you are saying that you are willing to part with them, just let me know what you want for them Remo... and thanks, I appreciate it

I'm seriously considering converting my shadowtrooper to a Nova Trooper Elite, and for this I basically need the same pouches and backpack that a TD has... save for the backpack is all black. I'll have to look around for the pouches, and I have found a number of different tutorials for the back pack...

Welcome aboard!

One of my brothers lives up in Alaska... he's a public defender in Juneau (not sure if I spelled that right, and I'm too tired to care lol). Look forward to trooping with you soon!

Didn't Bollow say he wanted to do a tug of war with scifi vs heroes didn't he!? lol

Perhaps...I'm not telling.

Oooo... I'm down lol

It's hard to tell in the pictures since it the fabric all kind of blurs together... the one thing I can say for sure is that you need more accurate boots... unless those aren't the boots you are using.

It also looks like it may be missing the "scarf"

I think you have to contact them via email... there should eb a link on teir site somewhere.

While my horns required a bit of work (mainly painting) to get right... you can find stuff at kropserkel.com. You might have some luck with the gloves there as well... and I have never seen tight fitting gloves on Maul... There are two routes you can go with the contacts... 9mmsfx makes some good on...

If you're just looking for Darth Maul type gloves, I can try and hunt down where I got mine from... I honestly don't remember and it's been years, but I've been told they are "pretty" much the same as tie pilot gloves... so you might try asking some of our pilots as well. Now if you are actually loo...

Well as soon as this one sells, I'm going to look into picking up a Kashyyyk scout trooper... REALLY looking forward to the paint job on that one Actually, looking forward to just putting together another suit tbh

That's the plan

I've been wanting to start on a new costume, and to do so, have to sell one... I like my shadowtrooper too much to get rid of that, so the shocktrooper is going...

I gotta agree wholeheartedly on this one Much more comfortable this way...

On the day before Halloween a few members of the Midwest Garrison made the trek once again to Advocate Hope for our second visit there, this time they had a Halloween party going on... what better time for a visit from the 501st than this! The majority of the visit was spent in a room where they wer...

welcome aboard!

OK, this one actually goes up in a timely fashion.. SWEET! Once again the call was put out to the 501st to help promote a new Star Wars book at the Borders in Oak Brook. While the book may have broken new (and apparently gruesome!) ground as far as Star Wars books are concerned, this was familiar te...

Another that is a little late... my bad! This was one of the MANY events taking place nationwide to hope promte the release of the Lego Star Wars Visual Dictionary. The employees of the Lego store were very excited to see us, and incredibly accomodating for our troops at this location. We were all s...

Better late than never... Well, it was a slightly chilly, and most definitely muddy morning in Orland Park for our first appearance at a JDRF sponsored walk, and needless to say, even despite the weather and the mud, we were a hit. The kids loved us, and even quite a few of the older "kids" as well....
