Great Lakes Garrison & Base

I am aiming to have Luke Skywalker approved in time for the Griffin's game. The only thing I still need is the lightsaber (or just hilt). I ordered one from saber forge but it is taking longer than expected. Anyone on the west side have one I can borrow until mine arrives?

I have a new costume I'd like to submit to the CRL. Who should I contact to get the ball rolling? I am chatting directly with the artist in the hopes we can surpass the 3 appearances requirement to get research sources. It currently appears in comics.

I'm just wondering about the belt portion. Debating a post trash compactor han solo and it requires the hero TK belt.

It's possible those Jedha TKs could go M.E.P.D. as well. I'll do some poking around on their boards, see if I can find anything. Normal TK's with backpacks and pauldrons already exist as "Heavy Weapons Troopers" in the 501st. The backpacks I'm talking about look like cloth with a radio. I...

Does anyone know if there is a CRL for Rogue One TK's in the works? I can't find anything about it. I ask as there are patrolling TK's with backpacks and pauldrons I quite like the look of. But, from my research the rogue TK armor has a slanted split on the sides instead of vertical. In some cases t...

I live just south of Grand Rapids!

I ordered a used stormtrooper suit and I am looking for advice / help fitting it. It seems to be properly sized height wise. The thighs and arms are a bit big. The belt is a tad long for me and I need to find some way to fit my glasses Infront of my face if possible. I'm also not sure how it's suppo...

Thanks for the Link!

Can we (I) get a list of the social media used by our local Garrison? Public and members only? I'm wondering where to look for Pictures from the Salvation Army bell ringing event at woodland.

So, My Boots have arrived. Though I wont be finished with the Fabric section (and waiting on belt) in time to be 501st approved by GRCC, I still hope to walk in costume at the convention (with makeshift belt). I look Forward to seeing you all there!

Hello, Kylo Ren in progress here! As it is doubtful that it will be finished in time for Grand Rapids Comic Con, (the boots and gloves are still in china) I was hoping to get some experience with the 501st as a Spotter/ Wrangler (Or elsewhere) and wasn't sure where exactly to post or who to get in c...

Where do you storm troopers/Vader/Kylo's get your Balaclavas? (The black Head covers with opening for the eyes and mouth.)
