  1. Thanks for your comment's bros, much appreciated!!!
  2. Yah it looks like a gear or something.
  3. Target has been letting stuff go this past weekend. I scored a Target exclusive Commander Fox.
  4. Sorry this is a little late but still wanted to share. We were invited to join the Baton Rouge Zoo, in having a special night for Children with Cancer and their families. It was closed to the public. We teamed up with some local Rebels and had a great time making the kids smile. The Zoo staff even created some star wars backdrops for the event which was really cool. It was a bit humid but well worth the sweat. We also made the local news in Baton Rouge (sorry no video) All photos with children have been cleared to view. Here's info on what Dreamnights is all about. Please read and contact your local Zoo to see if they participate. This is a great event to be apart of. If it helps make a child forget about their illness if only for a while, I'M THERE Thanks for taking time to read. Walt Dream Night at BR Zoo for Children with Cancer ::: In 1996, the Rotterdam Zoo initiated an annual evening 'out at the zoo' for children from the Sophia Children's Hospital. This first edition of Dreamnight at the Zoo was planned specifically for children with cancer. The invitation list included 175 children, and they brought their mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters. In the years that followed, the Rotterdam Zoo continued to organize these evenings for more children each year, reaching out to more hospitals and institutions. Beginning in 2000, other zoos in Europe began to organize similar evenings, and Dreamnight at the Zoo was officially born. Held on the first Friday in June each year, it is a cost-free evening exclusively for children with special health care needs and children with disabilities and their family members. It is the dream of the Dreamnight at the Zoo Foundation that all zoos in the world will once call the first Friday of June Dreamnight at the Zoo. There are now more than 100 zoos, in more than 24 countries all over the world, celebrating Dreamnight at the Zoo. In 2005, more than 40,000 families were touched by this special event. You can learn more about the partnering facilities at the Dreamnight website: www.dreamnightatthezoo.nl. Dreamnight in Louisiana Dreamnight at the Zoo takes place in zoos in many states, including California, Texas, Tennessee and Ohio. BREC�s Baton Rouge Zoo was the first zoo in Louisiana to make this special evening a reality for our children. Thanks to the generous support of Valero, Cancer Services of Greater Baton Rouge, BREC's Baton Rouge Zoo and Friends of the Baton Rouge Zoo, children with cancer enjoyed a cost-free evening at the Zoo with their families and friends. The Zoo was alive with jugglers, face painting, food, keeper talks and, the 501st Legion Bast Alpha Squad, and of course, wild animals! Also, here's the full album of pics from the event. http://public.fotki.com/lasquad501st/dream-night-at-bato/
  5. This is one nice piece of art you got there bro. It's looks just like the one I just bought? Probably is the more I look at mine. Just a few different things. I need that box on the side of mine though. (isn't that a new MEPD requirement?)
  6. I cleared mine as well. I am 501st as well MEPD deployed, I don't know if my info needs changing. Here's my 501st member profile http://www.501stlegion.org/members/display...amp;userID=7777
  7. **** yes bro, thanks!!! I'll take one off your hands for sure. PM sent!
  8. Does anyone here have a good conection for the two end caps and plate that goes on the pipe that's on the right side of the backpack? I've decided to redo my pack and would like to start fresh with these pieces. Like a Dumb **** I got rid of mine last year thinking I'd never need it I wanted to check with my MEPD bros first. Thanks in advance!!
  9. I wanted to share a custom carded figure I did for Peter Mayhew from our squad for being in this yrs Tucks Mardi Gras parade and visting the Children's Hospital with us. We all signed the back with our 501st numbers but I don't have any final pics of that yet. The pictures used were private pictures sent to me from his daughter, and specail thanks to her for that. He was blown away by it and is a great guy Special Thanks to my Bast Alpha Squad for letting me present the Figure to Peter, It was something I'll remember till I croak LOL Enjoy The figure (sorry for the shatty picture) The figure presentation to Peter from me

  13. All of you have an open invitation to troop any parade down here. We are in four of the main parades. Next weekend we'll have Peter Mayhew riding on the Children's Hospital float and we'll be in the lead and surrounding it. I think I'll acually be riding on the float with him but I won't know till I get there. Check out the 501st beads we had made, cost was a little high for my taste

    hi there

    Welcome to the sandbox brother, time to get dirty !!!
  17. That's a good idea bro, I'm in the process of doing our squad cards. I think we'll have to get 501st approval first, as I did for our squad cards.
  18. By the way, I wanted to let you bros know that I can do just the art work if you want to do your own card. Price will be $11 for art set up for both sides and $3.50 for each copy or you can print your own. Holla if interested. peace
  19. Great job bro! I'd drop that ammo pouch a little. I had to do the same to mine, it kept bumping my helmet when I turned my head.
  20. Bump Good progression thred! Great job brother You got some new pics?
  21. Here's another custom figure and card of me. I used the new TK figure and then painted it with the same paints used on my armor. Sorry the pic may be a little blurry, and don't mind the cat hair that decided to lay on the card Enjoy Here's a few I did this weekend for myself Sorry the pics are a bit blurry, I tried using the flash but it screws up the picture. Enjoy.
