Re: Question regarding ones TK or TB #

Your number is your number for life, so I'm 60609.

As a scout, I'm TB60609. If I built a Boba Fett, when wearing that costume I'd be BH60609, a Vader would be SL60609, etc...

Re: ANOVOS = Argh! (now I have to make a decision)

I got a line on an Altmann's Scout bucket, so I decided to stash the cash for a snazzy new lid.

Maybe - Maaaaaybe I'll wear my KS in a spraypaint showdown with Todd.

Re: Scout Test Fit. Almost ready

I am finishing up on my Scout. I am having a lady do my Vest and Flight suit Patches this week. I am also going to get rivets and attach my holster to my boot in the next cpl days. After that there is a small situation with my forearm armor that only has an elastic strap attached to one side, inste...

Re: Waiting lists...

What kind of armor are you looking at?
My scout kit shipped in a week, though there are makers who take (considerably) longer.

That's the only costume I have any knowledge about though.

Rich
I'm in Bay City, and got it at Ideal Party Store.

I believe their website shows places where their products are sold, but there's a good chance any place that sells Michigan craft beers would have it or be able to get it.

Re: Scout Trooper (Boots)

Hey Matt, glad things are coming together for ya! Yeah, the soft parts for the Scout can be a little overwhelming, but it's all there in the CRL on the Legion site. Suede riding patch (thighs), buttflap, thigh bands, modified collar, pocket removal... it sounds like a lot, but it's not too bad. I di...

And thanks, Brewski! I took my time, did a lot of research, and the gang over at BS.N has been top notch. I'm proud of it.

Thanks, Ripcode. Yeah, I knew this wouldn't fly. Just a quick pic while I was suited up. I pretty much look for any excuse to put it on :) I spoke with a photographer friend whom I'll be getting together with this weekend for my pics. Rather than bother with my phone camera, I figure I'll get the be...

Re: Scout Test Fit. Almost ready

Vest and thigh patches - yes.
Missing the mudflap here. All that work putting everything on and I forgot!

Thanks! It's been an absolute blast working on this. Can't wait to get out there.

Scout Test Fit. Almost ready

I finished my flak vest yesterday and had my wife snap a couple pictures while i had everything on. In these pics, I'm missing the mudflap and shoulder bridge covers. The thigh boxes were just clamped in place as i was adjusting the strap lengths. http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb36/iamnotjohns/...

Re: Ebay Find?

Yowsa. I've been staring at Scout armor since October. Well, since I was 4 technically, but I digress... That's a rough rig. I wonder if it was scratch built. It doesn't look like any I've seen. It would be well worth it to save up a little extra cheddar and start fresh. Also, keep an eye on the tra...

Hey Troops! I should have my Biker Scout buttoned up in the next day or two! I'm going to take a few quick pics and post them at BS.N for some critique and adjustment, and then get my proper submission photos together. I know the obvious: front, back, sides, bucket on and off... Are there any tips a...

This weekend is going to be a haze of E6000, Velcro, and ABS dust.
