  1. I have a hasbro e-11 that I wanted to bring up to spec. I had seen mod kits out there and looked through the forums. Most stuff on here regarding it is from 2007. Do you guys know who I should get in touch with that is making conversion kits currently?
  2. So follow up question, would the PVC be better for a TK since its super shiny an what we all think of a stormtrooper in our minds, and us ABS for a TD, because weathering will take better to it.
  3. Okay so after doing a rediculous amount of reading I've decided to save up and have an RS be my first kit. While I've read a lot on ABS vs HIPS, RS has a PVC set. What are you all's thoughts on PVC vs ABS? I want to go for as screen accurate as possible which is why I decided on the RS. But I want something durable to troop in because let's face it I want to BE the TK/TD not just have it in a stand in the corner. I'm pretty anal about screen accuracy so I'd like to shoot for something that allows me to move up to SWAT eventually. Thanks.
  4. I love how it looks like they have no idea what to do. They look so un-elite!
  5. So I have a question for you guys (and gals). My wife no-go'd buying armor right now (stupid other financial obligations!). Would you all recommend gathering up all the other pieces first (backpack, E-11, pauldron, better handguards/gloves) and then having the armor top it off, or just start with a TK and working it into a TD?
  6. My wife just texted this picture to me. It's my youngest son, he's only 19 months old. The force is strong with this one...
  7. Sold some guns, now to convince the wife purchasing armor isn't a waist!

  8. Alright troops, I need some help. My wife wants a Star Wars birthday party for my son. It in January so I have some time. She wants to make costumes for the kids to wear to it, but my boy likes the Imperial characters (Darth Vader is his fav). Does anyone have an idea on how to make a decent vader outfit for him to wear? I was thinking make the other kids Jedi costumes because 1: they are easy and 2: Way less cool than the Empire
  9. I use a family members HBO account that they don't use. I found I was keeping Uverse just for Game of Thrones. Cheaper to work a deal with someone on the side. I didn't need any other channels. Roku is awesome though, I use Uverse Internet at the highest bandwidth combined with Netflix, Hulu plus and Crackle. Don't even miss regular TV
  10. The Cowboys will never be good as long as Jerry Jones owns them! I've never heard so much "they have the talent to be great" in my life! It's the NFL, every team has talent!
  11. I would add that Sandtroopers were apparently the only ones in ANH that could hit what they were aiming at (JAWAS!), They are in combat kit which is always sexier, and the Stormtroopers are essentially the paratroopers/Rangers of the Imperial Army. When I was in Iraq, the chicks always hung out on the special ops compound.
  12. DA BEARS! As long as we beat Green Bay it's a winning season in my book! And I love what we did to the Cowboys, I live here but I can't stand that team!
