  1. So who is the Burning Sands sandtrooper squad and are they mentioned anywhere else? I was flipping through a Star Wars book and it mentions the Burning Sands Sandtrooper Squad in the description of the T-21.

    "The T-21 proved a common support weapon for the army and stormtrooper squads. For Example, the Burning Sands sandtrooper squads sent to Tatooine to recover the droids Artoo-Detoo and See-Threepio used T-21s as their primary support weapons." (Smith, 1997, p.12-13)

  2. To get the correct cistern you either have to go back in time to the 70s (or at least find a very old toilet) or contact Rick or Gordon. At least in Texas nobody has any idea what I'm talking about when I ask them in home improvement stores.

  3. Awesome. First I would like to thank Juan for taking time to make this dream of mine come true. Then of course my parents and family and friends. Oh, and of course my fans. Which none of this could be possible without. I will promise to continue working hard and trim my butt. This just proves that if you can dream it you can do it, keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars! Blah blah blah....

    Seriously though, thanks for the support guys.

  4. Hi,

    I'm a 501st member who just moved from Florida to Texas and with that change I want to expand my trooping choices. I picked up an ATA set a long time ago to do a TK but I've only trooped with dirties. It makes a strong impression. Hopefully I can get together with a local armorer to help me get suited up and I'll definitely come around here often.

    Welcome to Texas, Star Garrison, and MEPD.

  5. Hey! My name is Daphne (I go by the username Funky Buns). I'm working on a sandtrooper costume. I mostly do Rebel costumes, and this will be my first full set of armor. Woooooo! I know I'll probably be asking a lot of questions here on the forum, and hopefully getting to know some of you.

    Dude, how can you not be down with someone named Funky Buns. All hail Funky Buns!

  6. Hello troopers! I'm taking the plunge and going dirty! I dumped my old FX kit and picked me up an AP kit. Already watching the threads for my Captain's pack from QM and Hyperfirm DLT-19 from Sci-Fire. Pouches are also covered. Hope I can make SWAT, but first I need to get deployed as an officer! MEPD has great references and I've already had a great experience and I've only just joined today. This place is awesome!!!

    Rolando..in the hizzy. Welcome to MEPD dude, glad to see you dumped left those shiny pencil pushers. Time to get back on the street.
