New member, name's Brandon.  I'm a part of the Carolina Garrison as well as Talon Clan (Mandos).  I bought my kit off someone getting out of Star Wars costuming so I'm in the process of making adjustments to fit me.

G’day everyone, I’m Matt and from Queensland Australia. I’m a member of the Redback Garrison with my TIE Fighter Pilot kit and recently picked up a Sandy from a member who was no longer trooping. As luck would have it, it mostly fits well, just the thighs are a bit big for me. So now I’m brain storming how to trim them down without wrecking them as it is a nice kit. I can’t wait to join the MEPD

Hi Matt and welcome to the MEPD. 

As long as the back coverstrips haven't been glued with superglue, it should be fairly easy, even with superglue, it shouldn't be that difficult. Since you are going to reduce the size, you can cut out the back coverstrips, adjust the size and glue on a new coverstrip. Keep us posted on your progress.

Cheers mate

Thank you Hausi, I’ll definitely keep you all updated as I go. I’m a little hesitant to trim it as it’s a great bit of kit. However, if I don’t start it, I won’t get it approved :)

Hello everyone.

My name is Julien fro FanWars Garrison in Belgium. I have been a 501 member since 2014.
ID 69863
I own several suits, TK, SL, TI & MW.

I very often think of one of my first loves, a Santrooper. For now I'm gathering the info so I can hopefully become a real Sandy.

I've always loved this costume, because to me it really epitomizes the shock fighter of the Empire.

Living in Belgium it is sometimes difficult to find the different items without paying a lot of import and customs taxes! So I take some time to reflect.

My English is not very correct, sorry for the mistakes!

Have a nice day :)

Hi Julien, welcome to the sandpit, good to have you here.:salute:

Don't worry about your English, it's great. Many of us here actually come from different countries, English not being our mother tongue.

You will find heaps of valuable info in the different threads here, so take your time to browse the forums and have fun.

The Sandtrooper also wasn't my first costume but I knew from the beginning that I wanted to be a Sandtrooper once. 

Cheers mate!
