Great Lakes Garrison & Base

Hello, I'm TK-76239 from FB who told you to come here. First thing you need to do is decide which costume you want to pursue. From that point there are different expert people who can assist

Imperial Boot has an odd ordering system. They only accept orders for a week. See their website for their schedule. When that week is up, they start manufacturing. You receive your boots like a month later.

Clamp 2 halves of a light saber around the bottom of support posts? Paint the rest of the post in light saber colors?

Hello there!

There are plenty of Stormtrooper kits out there that I don't know too many printing one at this time. We even have a garrison member who makes kits. If you need help please reach out

Hello there! What kind of characters were you thinking? 501st is fun. You only have to dedicate 1 day a year to maintain active status. For a multi day event, wear your 501st for 1/2 day and go with your freelance the 2nd 1/2 day. A lot of us do GI Joe, Marvel, video game characters, Ghostbusters, A...

Hello Lefty! It’s me Al Tong. Welcome to the GLG boards. Glad you made it.

Congrats

There are a number of troopers in the GR area but C19 probably has slowed down planned activities

ANH Stormtrooper here.

For gloves I use some from Home Depot. They have some sort of white printing on the back side but it's not issue as it's covered up by the hand plate. If it really bothers you, use a Sharpie to black it out.

The limiting factor is your vehicle. I have heard many stories of people who cannot fit their large totes into the backseat or trunk of a passenger car. I have no problem storing a Stormtrooper with helmet and a bunch of accessories inside the 50g Husky. You will learn how to pack your stuff pretty ...

What part of Michigan are you located?

Who made that kit?

That is cool

I can help with some general stuff. Never worked or seen an FX kit but I'm sure we can figure out the final look

You mentioned Clawson in the whitearmor post. Are you in that areas? There are a crouple TK troopers in that area.

I have some pictures but cannot post them here since the photo bucket fiasco. Contact me on Facebook Al Tong

I don't have Spiderman or Iron man but if they are willing to take a TK I can probably do it depending on the date and time. Also keep in mind one cannot drive in a TK so a changing place (even a small one) is needed. I am close enough to Warren and it turns out through business and personal family ...

I might be interested but I'd prefer a larger group of characters

I have Troopacoola fans. The Troopacoola fan installation is actually a great setup because the switch is where you can reach it easily with bucket on. Switch is mounted solid. To be honest I don't use the fans at all and leave the battery out 99% of the time. If I do I switch them on for 30 seconds...

5'9" isn't going to work. The pant legs would cover your feet like a onesie and the crotch will be halfway to your knees

The collar picture of the flightsuit says XL on the hanger. Not sure if the flightsuit is also XL. If you are interested I have an XL brand new except for a test fit from Cosplay Sky. It is too large for me at 5’8” 185lbs. I’m guessing you need to be over 6ft for a good fit. Cosplay Sky is one of th...
