Hey Eddie, how are you doing bro...
Just wondering, besides the look (that is really close) are you saying that thet part is actually what we see on t21s used on ANH?
Can you provide any proof of that?
This might be an awesome finding...
I know Gino claimed to know what exact part was used for the t21 ribs, but also denied to share it with the general public... so.
Saludos!
That's because Gino is a freakn ****editted**** nice find though

OK, Thanks! Looks easy enough, have to give it a try.
-
It's a thing of beauty! Congrats Marcus!

Any pics? I want to do this too, my pack isn't very heavy but after a couple of hours it starts to feels twice as heavy <_<
-
Everyone I've talk to has this same problem, myself included. You just need to shim it till it clears.

Wow...when I saw that I thought "seriously"? Im still learning and building packs is fun for me....but....Ive been building for about a month and I think even I could do better....especially on a $500.00 budget.... lol
(not complete....still needs stinger and the side pipe to be reduced by about 3 inches....)
Absolutely! "FUN" is the whole idea

...What wrong with my pack Morgan? You guys are really mean. Im selling it for what I bought it for....
Just kidding, Im just havin fun with this one, its not mine...lol.
I would never bag on someones work, especially making a sandie pack, that's just being an elitist d**k. I actually really enjoy seeing everyone's creativity, cannon packs as well as members own interpretations, that's the fun part of the hobbie. However there are certain things that bug me. One is price gouging people that don't know any better, two calling somthing screen accurate that is not even close, and three lecturing as if they know about something when in fact their full of s**t.
For those of you that don't know, the owner of Starfortress is allegedly a fugitive wanted by the feds for fraud, being a pediphile, and supposedly ran off to the philippines with his wife to escape prosecution.
The topic was discussed at length over on the RPF, and again I say "allegedly". In any case the guys still a tool in my book. <_< If anything for the simple fact of all the horrible crap I've seen him sell people on the other boards. And don't even get me started on the Boba Fett stuff he sells Oh brother!

Bet someone still buys it though...

Only $550.00, is this guy for real?!? What a frggn tool
This is what he wrote:
Fiberglass construction, fairly lightweight for it's size, opens to reveal an excellent storage compartment for carrying vendor purchases while on patrol breaks. Requires some final assembly upon receipt. (This is NOT some Don@ld Duck type construct made of plywood and kitchen pans such as other amateur backpacks out there that people sell, this is a PROFESSIONALLY made molded prop replica.)
If this guy knew his a** from a hole in the ground he would know that one of the parts was actually a kitchen container. DOH!
Saw this on fleabay today, I though I'd give everyone a good laugh
-
That is f**ked-up I hope he recovers quickly, chalk up another way to injure yourself in this hobbie
-
Yeah, by no means was I saying it sucked, actually it looks like a pretty decent pack. And I'm sure it was probably inspired from someone here on the board so I don't want to be mean about it. I was just alittle floored by the steep price of something "claiming" to be screen accurate. <_<

Walt Disney announces Star Tours make over.
http://video.ocregister.com/m/26341885/dis...rs-makeover.htm
I heard through the grapevine that the Golden Gate Garrisons BH1034 has a small part as Boba Fett in the new Star Tours, the details are confirmed but not disclosed. Supposedly Boba Fett chases after you or something.
I'm stoked to see what they do with it!
-
GREAT JOB! I love to see people make and build there own stuff.
-
Yes E6000 all the way! You can get it at Joann Fabric or Michaels craft storeWhere do you get E6000? Hows my pack coming?
-
Yeh, Steve Sansweet's does take some beating...
-
-
Ah, I see.
-
From my understanding they were actors digitally added to the screen(examp. the "look sir droids" scene). However in some scenes, yes the TK's were CGI like the troopers on the dewbacks.

Sorry to hear that, what does he sell?Obviously I have been pretty lucky buying thru sellers on the legion,garrison, squads and detachment boards.
And whilst i freely admit its only 1 bad apple that wrecks it for everyone,,,well heres one bad apple...
His name is Scott Nelmmz, more commonly known as SPFX or Scott via email and Phil on other boards
kosmic-kustoms on Ebay
I knew there would be some delay, thats ok, i understand people dont have rooms filled with these items, and
I accept that they get a sale, get the money, buy the materials, build the item, paint n send etc etc
But i started to become concerned when my reply emails were..

"Hi Doug

"Hey bro sorry for not getting back to ya..been dealing with my kids Bday....(wish i could have a birthday that lasts ten days :o )
well its all ready to go..no doubt this week"

" this is your helmet.. armor is also complete "

"I am just trying to get the funds to send your stuff..." (postage WAS included in the original payment)

"You don't know a @#$%ing thing about me!
You should have thought twice about sending this threatening letter!
Do not contact me again!"
Well firstly it wasnt "threatening" i simply stated what i would be doing within the limits of the law ie: contacting Ebay..Paypal..Visa..My Bank.. and lastly the AFP.
Secondly,,, even if i did send an abusive,vile and disgusting email...I have every god **** right as it is MY $1800.00
The "Do not contact me again" is a clear admittance to me that he will happily rip me off
my advice to E V E R Y O N E is stop your payments if youve sent them, cancel your orders and DO NOT think for a second,,"Oh he wont do that to me"
Treat this disgusting excuse for a scum sucking pig dog of a theiving,lying human waste of space and fresh air that he is
and if he reads this,,,,then scott or phil or wtf ya name is, by all means, come see me face to face and complain all ya like,,
Also if you paid with a credit card, you can call them and tell them what happened. Usually their pretty helpful in matters of this nature.

The drop boxs are on the special edition, ILM was to lazy IMO to get it right and just used some old ROTJ armor from my understanding. Even the weathering job(looks like they rubbed crap on their armor) and field packs are awful. Honestly they would have been better off using some of us at MEPD in the film.

My goal is to full in by the end of the year. Good to hear from ya!
Right on! It's more fun to be dirty anyway

Crashmann, thanks for all your help...
Hey Marcus, it's about time you started back up your sandy
Cushmann problems?

Cushman is a total rip-off! I did not see this post before I placed an order with this scumbag. I waited almost three months with several email attempts, no response, no item. I have now filed criminal fraud charges against Cushman through my bank C/C.
Honestly, I don't really care if somebody chimes in and tries to defend this clown, their is no excuse for this and I would warn anybody thinking of buying from this person to look elsewhere.
I looked on the Better Business Bureau to file a complaint and it looks as if 14 other people have already done so before me. Also, their BBB rating is "F" on a rating of A-F
