Oh the Horrors! lol

Also was wondering if I should use super glue to glue the popped off faceplate piece back on. Thats prolly what I will try to fix the chipped Cistern with. Or do you think that E6000 stuff everyone on here talks about is better?

Here is the cap. It got hit so hard it not only broke the cap but popped the paint off some of it. Man they were not careful with this box at all. Next time When we get my brothers Im paying extra to have you ship it UPS. Usually when I get large boxes from them they dont look like they were dropped from the cargo bay at the first sign of imperial ships lol.

Dirty I got my Pack this weekend and its aweswome. It did seem from the look of the box it was shipped in though that the Post Office May have dropped it from the back of truck at 50mph . There was some major scuffs and some damaged places. Most of which I hope to fix. A piece of the faceplate popped off and the Cistern had chunk snap off of the fin. Luckily I found the chipped off piece and I think If I glue it back on and touch up the paint and weathering it will be fine. Even the pack frame was scraped up pretty good.. Guess I got some free weathering there. The lab pip and other loose pieces all seem in good order. One of the caps appears to have been crushed though. The Cistern part was all cocked to the side and seems to have taken the brunt of it but if I can glue the fin should be fine. Maybe you can tell me which type of Cap to get to replace the broken pipe cap. They look like Spary paint can lids or something similar yes?

Wish I could come down there and work on Blasters with you! In all seriousness though have a great time and enjoy your stay here in the states.

Looks good but I must say Not nearly as good as all the pics of my brothers on here! You guys all have the best armor in the world hands down. and most of you regardless of ATA, RS, TM, FX, etc.. have all done a tremendous job of building your kits. I'd rather spend my time with the Sandy's on here anyday! . Its a nice hero Suit though

Glad you found something that would Work Pac!

Great Job on the weathering!

Here is a shot of me and my Brothers going TMNT style a couple years ago. It was a fun night. Im Michelangelo on the right. For those who are not familar with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles he is the Orange Bandanna wearing one with Nunchuks. The suits were from a costume shop but the color string and bandannas were home made and we of course all wore bald caps and painted our heads green. The weapons are also real Ninja Sais, Katanas, Bo Staff and Nunchuks. They are not sharpened however but still make awesome Cosplay Props.

What the Duece? we got no chance! lol.. but we can still try

Good Work Joe! Very Nice looking Kit. Congrats on making it to the squad. Have fun trooping and watch out for old creepy guys in robes. they can make you forget things! ha!

Scotty that Horseman suit is freaking awesome! Not sure what Im doing yet this year. I'll try to post some pics of some of my better costumes though. Ive had a couple decent ones over the past few years.

1!

Thanks for fixing the image posting problem Locitus! The troops will be much happier now that we can share our awesome photos again

Yep I was able to post new pics this morning. Thanks for getting this fixed guys.

I'm posting a Picture of my new Pauldron. Custom made by MEPD member and master of all things Pauldron Trooper1. His Pauldrons are definately second to none. Mine is white but he makes black , and Orange too. Im guessing He could probably make other colors if you ask him. This is probably the only picture you will see of it this shiny and clean as well. Because as you all know we are a dirty Bunch. I will be weathering it to match my armor once i get my kit built.

Here is a shot of my Pouches custom made for me by Blaster 8266 right here at MEPD. He does great work guys. These things are awesome. If you need pouches definately send him a PM.

Here is a good picture of My Son holding the BFG! He thinks its really cool too. Wish I had one of these when I was 5

The Dring discussion of Doom has Begun!!

I would think the Landend would work for Highest level. But Im no expert. The only difference between them and the CRL appears to be they only have one pull strap and not two. However Some guys have told me not all the original boots had two straps. I would say the Lands end are the most acurate Ive found in the USA. If you can get them and paint and weather them they will be pretty dog gone close to whats in the movie I think. I just bought a pair myself and plan on painting them soon . I will try to post pics when I do.

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I guess in another thread it seems the image link is a sitewide issue at this time.

This is why my picture the other day is only a photbucket link and not the image itself. I was getting the same error.

Hmm can't seem to post it as a direct image. It says I have posted more than the allowed images. Tried it as a direct link and HTML to my photobucket but cant seem to get it to actually display the photo here. Any ideas what Im doing wrong?

Its Light, has very good details and Is a joy to hold and walk around with. Thanks Misfit for giving me a good deal on it.

Thank you so Much for bringing the Imperial Mobile Comm System (tapatalk) Back Online. I have tested this and confirmed it to be working also. I do hope you Blasted the Rebel Scum responsible for breaking our Comm systems.
