I just finished dyeing the MP-40 pouches and I cant really tell if I did a good job like the ones Juan did, I followed the instructions and after they dry we will see if they are up to par with the ones on the tutorial. lol In the meantime, I received 2 new packages: a brand new pair of shiny Trooper boots... MMMMMM cant wait to dirty these suckahs up. LOL and a pair of small spanish pouches. I love these... Rare enough is the fact that one of them had a note. A spanish hand written note with 4 random names... COOL, right?! So now im kind of stuck, Im on the ATA waiting list and dont know what should be next on the list of things to get?! Maybe the belt?! or the Backpack?! Gloves?! TTY soon, Doopy Doos kit on the way... YAY!

Juan, Wheres the pics?!

Mine had an old Spanish note... I'm posting pics soon. But a question remains, How do you attach these pouches to the belt?

Heres an UPDATE: Been working on my Hasbro E-11 blaster... bought a dremel (Dremels rule!!!! ) got some other stuff and a six pack... weekend warrior flow! BEFORE I checked out some of the posts on the forums and got some great ideas... and after a few brewskis and a lightly cut finger ( kids, becareful when handling power tools, seriously) heres what I have so far! AFTER, but Before the Doopy Doos MK2 Kit (lol) As you can see I cut, covered srews and sanded out all the proper parts and some extra ones I thought were real cool to customize! well so far so good, now I practice PATIENCE while I wait for the Doopy Doos MK2 Kit to arrive... I will wait to primer and paint after I get the kit installed. any other suggestions?! I actually have some great stuff coming in this week... Can wait to get em and showing you all, TTY real soon. ~ J
