Re: TD radio chatter

I have copies of all these, but are you saving it correctly?
Right mouse button over the red hyperlink and "Save Target As" and select where you want it saved.
I have just tried this and it works.

Re: Quick question

Most of us use these... it may be a bit large, but having extra room is better than cramming. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Stanley-24-Gal-Mobile-Chest-029025R/203710098?cm_mmc=shopping-_-googleads-_-pla-_-203710098&skwcid&kwd=&ci_sku=203710098&ci_kw=&ci_gpa=pla&ci_src=29834623...

Re: Helmet Fans

Hi All As I am just getting started, is this fan thing necessary? Thanks in advance Jason Yes definitely, especially with the variable temperatures we have in Michigan! I am a "two fan" guy, which gives me options, one fan, two fans... or no fan at all! Also, having two fans gives you a b...

Re: Found the armor I want! But..

Just take your time, and research, research and research. Mine is AP armor, but would recommend ATA armor too. :thumbs: I highly recommend assembling your own armor, at the end of the day you're the one that's going to be wearing it! http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/11538-the-various-types-of-a...

Re: Dying black boots white??

I first bought a pair of Jodphur black boots (which I dyed white), wore them for my first few events, but the white started cracking off, so I ended up buying a pair of white boots! I know it's more "movie accurate" to show a bit of the original black, but they looked bad! Check on the FIS...

Rubies are no better than the junky ones at the halloween store. A waste of money in terms of fit and quality.

Yes, most of the Canon events, I'd want to wear the TK anyways.
Just would be nice to switch it up for non-canon events.

If you wanted to be non-cannon and wear your TK, you could be a Muppet Trooper! :mrgreen:

Re: Michigan 501st - CHARITY HISTORY

I asked Brent and Donavon last year how much was made at the 2011 Whitecaps and they said $3,000 was made. I pmed the command staff this amount and no one posted it and I was told it would be posted. So under Make A Wish Foundation for 2011 should be $3,000. For 2012 I have no idea what the total a...
