Like the last 2 years prior we were invited back to the DuPage county Fairgrounds to partake in the annual All night Flea Market and Comic Con. The Flea market definitely has the feel of a Flea Market that is turning into a minor Convention as there are celebrities, bands and other activities aside ...

Hey guys, I will have to update this post after Celebration VI for pictures - not enough time to get them up on Flickr before we leave - but I wanted to get the written portion of my report up before we leave. I arrived at the fairgrounds at 2pm, 2 hours before the event started. We were given the s...

Wesley, I suggest you come to the Bartlett fourth of July Parade in Bartlett, IL on Sunday July 8 there will be many of us there and there will be a meeting but it would be a good chance for you to see what is going on. There is usually 50+ garrison members at this event. Look for Bartlett in the sp...

There will be quite a bit of us at the Lockport and Cresthill libraries tomorrow. Not sure where they are in relation to you. But I know those are still on for sure tomorrow if you would like to meet some MWG members

Hello All, My TK armor should be arriving today. Excited about my build. Going to make it an ESB version. I have been lurking this forum and the FISD forum for a while now and finally took the plunge. I know one of the guys in the Bloodfin Garrison and he is going to help me with my build. We start...

Hey! You joined the boards!! :D I was the Princess Leia at the Walmart event. And also the biker chic at Celebration VI that you remember. I can't help you with the Royal guard option, but I worked on my BF's sandtrooper a lot. In fact, I've helped him work on all of his costumes in one way or anot...

Still Need a greely for the belt and then I can get official pictures.

Hey Brian,

Yes Wally has moved to Ohio I believe, he will still be part of the garrison in spirit but he has moved on to another Garrison. Hopefully there is someone else near Shiloh that will take over the reins for you!

Yes the Flight suit is here. Bassclarinets may have a belt for me and Targ has the buckle I need. Now I just need a TK/Stormtrooper holster for my gun. Hoping to debut the costume at the Walk for Autism at Soldier Field 5/21/2011

We can be twins! Very nice, Jason!! We need to get all the Endor troopers together for some action shots this weekend! :) Sorry Brian, C2E2 is not in the budget for me this year. This weekend I am just staying at home keeping the home fires burning. Won't see anyone from the Garrison until our game...

Jason I didn't know you had an AT-ST driver outfit? Interesting! I've had the helmet for almost 3 years, but it took me this long to get the flightsuit and goggles to finish it off. AT-AT is the next costume I plan to build, right after some Vader upgrades. Now let's get yours complete, my brother!...

I know their are other AT-ST drivers in the legion but I think I'll be the only full-time one in the MWG. Yay to the armored calvalry division. When complete you, Andrew and I have to get a pic together.

Don't worry Matt, my food will always be good, (just worry about what I use for ingredients ) j/k

Hey Kids, the Chef is turning to the Dark side. I have a new AT-ST driver in the works. I just received the helmet today (check out facebook for pics) and I will be measured out for the flight suit tomorrow. The suit should be ready by Cyphan for approval - if not earlier! I will be taking that and ...

Hi everyone, I finally made the big commitment. With all of the charity events and conventions, I am finally ready to take the plunge and join this wonderful organization. I am building an AT-AT driver! I am really excited and looking forward to joining my friends for troops in 2011! Cathy Tomczak ...
