And we have approval! I've now got a formal legion costume. I still have work to do though. I'll keep updating as I modify my chestbox, add an elbow joint, get a helmet, etc.

Jon, what's a sigbar?

Justin, I can't find that thread on AB. What am I missing?

Ahhh, sigbar! That's that crazy photo thing at the bottom in the signature. Got it.

In the meantime, if anyone had advice on where to get a great helmet, please let me know. I'm nervous because I've heard complaints of Richies Armor lately, but I don't want to wear a Rubies![/quote]

Great costume! I have ordered a Helmet from RA. I will let you know how it comes out.
I sent you a pm about your Compad. (I need this item.... needdddd)
Thanks

I got my helmet from RA. My experience was not at all like the negative ones I've seen described on here.

For those of you familiar with MC's work from the 501st, he's promised me that his next helmet will be a rebel pilot (after I've badgered him enough).

For those of you not familiar with MC, he's a top notch armorer. Mr. Bojangles, maker of the best pilot chest box around, works with MC.

He's got a movie gig he's trying to finalize some armor for, and he's finishing up a Death Star Gunner helmet, but the X-Wing pilot is next on his list. If it's not, I'll be driving up and camping on his lawn until he gets going on it Evil or Very Mad

That would be great if there's another helmet resource for prospective pilots out there.

It's an urban myth... I am just a humble Pilot who has been blessed with many friends. Wink

I know of a couple of guys working on X-Wing helmets. When they have them perfected and are ready (and willing) to do runs, I will let you guys know.
