Well after almost being conscripted at the Louisiana comic con yesterday by the awesome people who ran the 501st booths, I am revisiting interest in interaction with this garrison that seems to be in a galaxy far, far away from here. I finished my scout armor 12 hrs before the event and need to do some modification to get it right. With some luck I will be approved before I move to Orange County CA. I'm not sure if anyone here is remotely close the Shreveport area but if so we need to meet up sometime. .... and why is there no TB smiley!?!?!

So I found the rules for submitting my photo application for approval, however there is no mention as to where I need to send them. Anyone have a contact for that?

Welcome to Bast Alpha, Sean! Saw some pics of your TB, looks very good. There are a few troopers up north, we just need to stoke the fires up there. I feel with the new movie coming out and the success of the con there will be more. 8-)

heloo!!! i am so glad we got to hang out, talk, and get you onto the forum.

you are just a few minutes with a seam ripper to fix the thigh strap issue and add some velcro to your neck area, and you would be ready to submit. I ll go ahead and post up the pics I took yesterday so everyone else can see the hardwork you put into your gear. it looks great on you.
