    For approval you need to match the crl, though bear in mind a blaster is not even required for approval. For trooping, I would speak to your GML. If it is a canon troop you usually have to troop as if you'd just stepped off the set. But for a non Canon troop (which in my garrison is 99% of them) your CO / GML has more discretion.

    TD72822 at Kidsflix in Chadstone, Victoria on 18th March 2023. I'm the one on the right.

    Looking good. You mention abs so I'm guessing this is an 850 armourworks kit? Have you got your plash and bandolier?
  6. Dragon_a
    I've only ever seen pics from the toy, I'm pretty sure they never made the movie. My guess is it was something from early costume design, which is why the toy has it, that was then abandoned in favour of using existing props. Unfortunately there is little in the way of behind the scenes material for us.

    maybe even a patch that celebrates all the MEPD costumes not just the sandies?

    Nice. Good luck
  9. Dragon_a
    Is this still going ahead?

    Not had any feedback about this. Did you get my email?

    Has there been any progress on our level 2 requirements?
  13. Dragon_a
    Ah, I didnt see the pic properly, I thought it was attached.
  14. Dragon_a
    Are you leaving the abs / cod as one piece or seperating them?
  15. Dragon_a
    When do you need these by?
  16. Dragon_a
    How does the 850 kit look?
  17. Dragon_a
    Not necessarily, the split between the kidney and ab plate should be 70 degrees, the ones from the OT (like this) are vertical. My advice is to speak to your GML, it’s their ultimate decision, not ours.

    I’m not overly familiar with FX armour specifically, but to answer whether OT armour can be converted to Rogue One / Solo armour? The answer is yes, in theory. However, it would be a big undertaking. A lot of pieces would need modifying and some parts built from scratch. Walt (from Walt’s Trooper Factory) was of the opinion that the only OT part that could be used is the butt plate. Have a look at the crl and compare to your armour and it should give you an idea of what the differences are.

    I can't comment on sandies vs HWT, there're better qualified people here than me. However Mimban is not an option with the armour you have, AM is an OT kit. For Mimban you need a Rogue One style armour and bucket for 501st approval.

    The blaster section of the crl needs updating anyway. The E11 listed as is is fine (as it describes the "rogue one version"). But are any Mimbans seen with DLT19s? The E10 should also be added (though ours is slightly different to that carried by mud troopers as it lacks a sling).
  21. Dragon_a
    Looks good. I believe that leaving it mostly grey is the more screen accurate approach, the prop makers used welsh slate for their mud.

    Congratulations on your application. Ive considered applying for PO for my Mimban but I have to say the MEPD's reputation for upper levels is really quite intimidating. As for packs being required.... absolutely not. There is no reason to require them. There are few clear pics to base a Mimban build on (trust me, I know) and none are wearing a pack. The only troopers seen clearly in the movie, the ones that throw Han to "the beast"..... no packs. And the argument that OT sandies need a pack to get level 2 therefore Mimbans should too? Sorry that makes zero sense. Different movies, different troopers.

    Looking good

    Its loose stitching which you can just pull out.

    Also the bandolier is pretty handy for stashing your wallet, keys and phone during a troop
