hpdblues Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Click on the link. It says topic does not exist. Well boss, I tried to sign up for this C4 Sandtrooper Costume Panel and they looked at me like I was some kind of crazy person... I guess I'll keep my sandie expertise and knowledge to me-self (not that I had a lot to begin with... ) T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 Bummer. I can't login since they never sent me my confirmation. Typical convention organization trying to throw something together quickly at the last minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SethB6025 Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 It would be a little shameful not to have at least one body from the MEPD there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpdblues Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 It would be a little shameful not to have at least one body from the MEPD there. I would agree. However, things get a little bit more "political" the higher you go... T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a minor league observation from someone in the peanut gallery If there's a sandtrooper panel I'll locate it! IF NOT, then we'll blast em!

hpdblues Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Sandies, **EDITED** The title of this post says it all. I was just granted access to the SWCIV forum and visited this topic. The current line-up DOES NOT include a SEPARATE sandtrooper discussion panel. Instead, sandtroopers will be discussed with other armored personnel in the Amour de Armor session.

freakengine Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Actually, this is what it says, and it does include us sandys, albeit mixed in with the other troopers: Stormtroopers Title: “Amour de Armor: Costuming for the Troopers of the Trilogy” This panel would cover the various incarnations of the armored stormtrooper costumes seen in the original trilogy, namely the clean TK, the sandtrooper, the snowtrooper, and the scout.

Thanks Tom. What I should have said is that there isn't a "stand-alone" costuming panel scheduled for sandtroopers. T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tom. What I should have said is that there isn't a "stand-alone" costuming panel scheduled for sandtroopers. T No sweat. I just know we all feel left out from time to time when LFL and associates want only polished TKs at formal events. At least we were mentioned this time as separate from the clean boys. What I don't get is how any ground can really be covered when tackling that many costumes in a single panel. Oh well - I suppose it's just an introductory overview for most attendees.

I'm disappointed that Mike AND Seth won't be able to attend. I am certain that their expertise on the subject of sandtroopers would have really enlightened the panel.

SethB6025 Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Funny, at this point the only thing I am not upset I'm missing is the actual convention. It would be worth the trip just to meet some of the far-flung brothers in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well boss, After looking at it and jumping through a couple of hoops, I'll probably just skip the panel discussion anyway. What I will do is have a brew in honor of you AND the XO. If I can meet up with the rest of the MEPD troopers all the better. T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Organization was lousy at C2 & C3, so I wouldn't expect anything else for this one. Also, I urge all of our 501st members not to volunteer for duties during C4. I know that sounds odd, but the track record is clear and it isn't pretty. Volunteer for a hospital visit or something more meaningful. Don't be slave labor for a group of companies that can more than afford to adequately staff an event, but choose not to in order to make even more money.

I'll be trooping an event at the Shriners Childrens Hospital the day befor CIV opens, and expect that to be even better than the con.
