mikajedi Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hello everyone, I am mikajedi from France. I am a star wars collector, I have a lot of props. Concerning the stormtrooper costume I have a full SDS armor with a SDS stunt helmet + another SDS battle spec helmet. I know we can always find better things that SDS, so this is why I am here... I wanted to be a member here to have some informations about the best stormtrooper costume parts ...I wish I had some new helmets in my prop collection and I 'm sure I will find some help here to know what I can buy. BTW : here's a pic of my SDS display : http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/2114/sdspd4.jpg Have a nice day everyone Best regards from France Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iconoclasta_88 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hey everyone... first post here. Ive been reading the MEPD forums for a while now but finally decided to join just yesterday. Ive been a member of the 501st for a year and a half now, part of Mexican Garrison and haved attended several events including CIV. There was where I was impressed by you guys during your group photo just after the Legion photo... Stormtroopers have been my fav character since I first saw ESB when I was 3, and then, Sandtroopers somehow for me became the portrait of the real imperial war hero... The elite of the elite... My armor has gone from Stormtrooper to Sandtrooper in the last few months and after a few more details, Ill be applying for deployment with the MEPD soon! Here is a pict (not the most recent anyway)... http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/3476/picture2sv7.png THX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacFett Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Hi all, been lurking for a while now. But, the TD is done. So, I figured I should at least intro myself before aplying for deployment. Rob D (aka: MacFett) BH 4113 I've been a member of the MidSouth Garrison and the Legion for about a year now. Been a fan since I saw Star Wars in the theater as a kid. Just turned 39 and I fly helicopters for a living. Wife and 3 kids at home to keep me young at heart. Looking forward to meeting more TDs. PS. Congrats Mike.

TK6237 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hello guys, I´ve been lurking around, even making a few posts, but realized I´ve not really ever introduced myself yet, so here goes. I´m from Norway, work as a cartoonist, and a member of Nordic Garrison since 2007. Being a huge Star Wars fan, I finally made my childhood dream of having a TK armor come true, close to age 30 (actually celebrated my 30th birthday trooping at CE!). My first troop was in April last year, where I even got to share the stage with Jeremy Bulloch, at the local student union´s SW 30th anniversary celebration. Way to kick start the 501st experience! I´ve always had a soft spot for the TD´s, even before joining the 501st, and signed up here some time ago to get the best info on how to dirty up, build the big guns and the back pack. Man, you´ve got some talented and dedicated people on these boards! My conversion from TK to TD is well under way; I´ve got the belly plate and the diamond knee on an AFX suit with an AP helmet, and I´m gonna have a second go at weathering my armor sometime during the next couple of days. I´ve also been lucky enough to get a Hyperfirm T21. I´m sourcing parts to build a back pack next, and then, gods of dust and dirt willing, I´ll be sending in my application for membership in one of the finest detachments in the 501st!

Terry19d Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hello everyone, my name's Terry, aka TK-2055 . I haven't been in the 501st very long but have already had a lot of fun building armor & getting to know lots of great people. Some of you I've already met & talked to over at the FISD forums but others are new - looking forward to settling down and getting to know everyone here. Currently I just have one set of armor that I'm keeping "clean", but I am getting a set of AP in this week that I think I might just dirty up for a TD. Even if I decide not to at this time I know that a TD is in my future - what better time to get acquainted with the ins-and-out of dirt, lack of ab buttons, & BFGs than now?
