Has anyone nailed this down yet? I too have a Sci-Fire T-21 and would like to add the ribbed tube. any ideas? Thanks~

Yeah buddy!! we totally rocked WonderCon and supported Anthony all weekend. He called me the other day about San Diego Comic Con. He would like to come but needs a place to stay close by. Is anyone willing to help out for a few days? I will be staying at the Marriot for 4 days and don't have the room

Great photos! despite the rain, it looks like you guys had a blast.

Well I as far as i know, I was asked to dicuss the details of weathering armor so I thought I'd share on how I did my suit. This is a costuming "how to" panel after all and not a "why I joined" 101 lesson. I agree about the whole group thing and should never be about an individual who had a dream of being a 501st member. I like the idea about showing "Heart of an Empire", this will give people a better idea of what we actually do as a part of the 501st. I will suggest this to the panel leader and see if we can't liven this up a bit. Thanks for your input.

I was asked to to be on the 501st costuming panel again this year. I get a free pass but bought an extra 4 day just in case. Hope to meet some of you there.

Yeah we had a blast. Anthony was just awesome. We basically hung out the whole weekend with him. I met his PR person and we all went out to some crazy 80's club where he danced all night. It was great to see everyone again. I'm really looking forward to SDCC

Yep! that's the last time I wore the "Thong" to an event. Canon or not, that thing straight up sucks to wear! I'll be there Wed-Sun. I will be wearing my TD Thurs & Fri but I hope to wear my new Chewie costume if it's done in time one of those days.

That's John B, Lewis E and Nathen ( I saw the photos on Flickr )

nice job bro.

Suit looks great! Mike did an outstanding job on the weathering. The only advise I could give as far as precautions go, just be aware of your surroundings. Don't stand in crowded areas and like you said about the little ones, avoid hyperactive kids! they tend to jump all over you and engage in some sort of reenactment scene from Braveheart. Seems fine at first but when little Billy starts to tug, kick, slap, poke and prod, it's probably a good time to get the **** out of there before the wrong thing comes unglued.. (YOU) Mike's right, you should always try and troop in pairs. That way, you've got each others back. If your at an event, find a place to stand where nobody can go behind you. That way you can guard your pack from the occasional blind party goers. Be "in control" of the situation at all times if you can. You shouldn't have to spend your whole time worry about some knucklehead slam dancing into your gear. Have fun out there bro and remember to keep a bottle a CA glue with you at all times. Good luck.

Find youself a Tan/Biege Beret to attach that patch to Roy. Outstanding work on your suit bro.

Like Craig said, he and I will be there as TD's sporting fro's and wigs . I will be presenting Anthony with an MEPD shirt from my current shirt run and will get plenty of pics with him holding it up surrounded by a few MEPD Officers.

Looking good Mike! one of these days, I'll own a set of TE2 armor.

Welcome, good job on your suit bro.

Congrats on your deployment.

Thanks Nathan, it didn't dawn on me to ask him. Thanks

That's it, Thanks buddy.

Hey guys, I'm looking to get a sling for my T-21. The photos in this thread are gone, can anyone please tell me where they got their strapping from? Cheers.

Looking good Scott, nice suit bro.

Cool, thanks for the info guys. I'm going to be doing a run of MEPD T-shirts and I want to post photos.

No, nobody's come to the rescue yet Scott.

This is driving me bloody crazy! when I go to post some photos it says that I've used up all the space (490.88k of 500k) which is impossible, I've only ever posted a few of my deployment pictures on this site and the files were'nt that big ???? I always see other members posting huge pictures, sometimes 5-6 in a row and I know that's gotta take up some space so what the **** am I doing wrong??? AAAAGGHHH, this pisses me off!! Please can anyone advise? Thanks~

I hope so dude. Got me fingers crossed.

I am for sure doing this parade next year! my new Chewie will be done by then.
