  1. Wow, Vincent, i already knew you have a real dedication to details and most accurate parts on your pack but that sets a new standard, bro!

    I can only applaud such amazing detective work! (Of course my applause is for your XO too!)

    As some of you know i've been here on the MEPD bunch almost from the start over decade ago.

    Back then we only imagined that we could have such details and original parts finds like we had in this past months/year!

    People like Strider and you  (and many other, you guys know who you are) raise the level of accuracy for all of us!

  2. Amazing build, you know i follow with great interest, bro!  :peace:

     

    Only one thing, why in Gods name, are all of you guys using these ultrahighpriced hair shampoos for your bp bottles???

    Striders is also that exspensive...    :tongue:

    Ok, ok, i'm almost baldheaded, i really don't have a feeling for such hair grooming products....   LOL

  3. Yep, great guy too! Ask him for the detonator plate too, i worked with him on those.

    Most accurate detonator plate available at the moment afaik, don't know of anyone producing the correct 7-ribbed version.

    If you're going for accuracy don't use the detonator plate coming with your armor!   :no:

  4. While i still grieve for Photobucket since i used it as my preferred photohoster ever since, i am on the hunt for a good new hoster too.

    I recently use Imgur like most others that formerly used Photobucket. It is the preferred hoster on Reddit so i felt like it should be ok.

    I personally don't like the App while using my Ipad and it works different to what we are used to from Photobucket but nevertheless it does what it is meant for.

    Keep us informed since i'm not completely sold on Imgur!  

     

  5. Looks like a real run, great scores!  :duim:

    I have the very same Gio canteen from etsy too!

    But since you got all this great vintage pieces, please get yourself a Karrimor frame!

    They pop up on Evilbay for cheap every once in a while! 

  6. That's my precisely what i think, Paul!

    There is no point in building a SE Trooper while not using ROTJ armor and helmet! The armor/helmet makes more than half of the complete costume. It's not just a minor greeblie we're talking about but the major part of the full character.

    To archive the look of the original SE Sandtrooper there is no way without ROTJ armor and helmet which actually MAKES the SE TD's or at least half of it! Everything else wouldn't be near to accurate.

     

    While i often don't get the rules or policies of the 501st isn't accurate looking characters the main goal?

    So no SE TD's without ROTJ armor and helmet, that simple, imho!   :whistling:
