Great Lakes Garrison & Base

Right on. Not worried about it though.

I'm looking right now (after I type this) where to go for approval pics.
It seems I forgot where to go for that.

I am going to request TB-10311 as my number. They checked and said it WAS available. SO: any of you Biker Scouts looking for a number - I got dibs on TB-10311. Lol.

I should be submitting in the next cpl days.

Wore it to MCCC on Saturday. Lots and lots of compliments. Everything is all set and ready for official approval. My dad had a Kidney Stone procedure the today and haven't had time to get the pics taken and sent but will do that ASAP!!! Should be in the next cpl days for sure. Also have to go back o...

Awesome. Thanks for the info.

I will ask for TB-10311 then. Hope to be submitting very soon.

I am almost ready to submit my Scout Trooper and I had a question about the numbers you get assigned when you join the 501st as a TK or TB. (I believe TB is a Biker Scout). I see the different numbers after the letters and was wondering if it is randomly assigned or can you choose your numbers? I re...

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, instea...

Thanks guys. I just need to settle down a bit and take it piece by piece.

I'm sure everything will work out fine.

Well, I received my Scout Trooper (Biker Scout) Armor, Helmet, Soft Parts and Blaster in the mail today! Now I am sitting here with all of it laid out and feeling a bit overwhelmed. I am having trouble putting everything on and fitting it properly and have also come to the realization that I absolut...

Wow, I must've missed that link earlier. Great link, thanks! That will for sure make it easier. I was so confused on what exactly had to be done. I can have someone my mom knows do all the sewing I think. I just have to go buy the material I guess. (Jo-Ann's Fabric probably). I just hope I can find ...

I ordered my Armor (and pouches and blaster) back on Jan 3rd from KS and I'm still waiting on the arrival of them.

I also ordered boots with Marcel on Pathfinder and he shipped them cpl days ago, should be here soon.

I didn't realize that you need thigh patches and a butt-flap. I was under the impression that was for Lancer-Class approved only. I know about the vest, but what has to be done with the thighs now? It never said anything about that before. Kinda irked that I keep finding more and more things I need ...

I might pick it up soon, OR I might put it on my B-Day list (not 'til July) for someone to get me!

Either way, it shall me mine!

I just saw this post today and I also just saw that book for the first time at Great Lakes Comic Con. It was sealed, so I couldn't look through it, but I wanted it. I assume some of you have this? It is a good book yes? Many good pics and close ups of costumes? ALSO: I am nearing completion of my BI...

I just ordered my Boots. Also contacted someone about a Vest. After that, I'M ALL DONE! As soon as everything arrives (and I try it on and make sure it fits) I will take mu pics and submit them for approval. I am really hoping to get everything done by May (which should be plenty of time) so that I ...

I heard that the Detroit Tigers are hosting another STAR WARS NIGHT on Saturday, Sept 19th, 2015. (7:08pm) I would like to definitely sign up for this troop! I have done it the previous two years and it's always one of my favorite troops to do. (I should have my Scout Trooper done well in advance of...

AWESOME! I have trooped the last two years and and definitely in for this year! It's one of my favorite troops to do! (I would like to request to be in the parade this time, I don't know how you get to do that).

I know. I'm not rushing. I've been saving for awhile now and planned to get everything for the costume in early 2015. I just didn't want to pay a little over $200 for boots, but I guess if I want a nice pair done properly, I have to get them overseas UK (which has ridiculous shipping prices). Also j...

*(read the bottom of my post). LOL
