Hello from Sydney - Cybermew3 - Monday 3-Oct-2011
Hey guys,
My names Dylan, I'm 26 and currently working on a ROTJ Royal Guard to gain membership to the 501st with my local Garrison (SCG).
Thought I would sign up here in case any events pop up in the future that might need me to post over here. Also wanted to say hi for the same reasons

Hi, and welcome!
Dreamworld next year is one event you may wish to travel up here for..
RE: Hello from Sydney - redpaint - Tuesday 4-Oct-2011
Hey cybermew,
good to see you've joined up.
There's an events button up top where you can see the upcoming troops including dreamworld.
When you get your robes from FP post up some pictures so we can have a look.

Welcome,
So you didint go with robes from Ang? good choice
RE: Hello from Sydney - Cybermew3 - Tuesday 4-Oct-2011
Yea muppet. I didn't get around to letting you know but FP got back to me and started making robes a week and a bit ago. I then got in contact with Ang and somehow had a refund done in 2 hours. She just seems too busy to spend enough time making more than 1 every month and a half

My helmet has shipped (should be here tomorrow or Friday), my pike is not far off, and robes posting early next week.
Getting excited!!
RE: Hello from Sydney - Deltorn - Wednesday 2-Nov-2011
Great to hear, Its an exciting time when you know you have parts in transit, makes it feel oh so much closer.
RE: Hello from Sydney - Cybermew3 - Friday 4-Nov-2011
Just because I know how much you guys want to see the progress.....
But seriously had some fun last night:

and then I found a red table cloth and a piece of dowel...... So of course that meant I needed to have a little bit of fun

All in all a pretty awesome night!!!!!!
RE: Hello from Sydney - Deltorn - Friday 4-Nov-2011
Thats an AWESOME looking force pike
Seriouly, looking good so far, be sure to keep us updated.
RE: Hello from Sydney - redpaint - Friday 4-Nov-2011
Looks good mate.
You might want to change your visor down the track as you can see in.
That's if it worries you.
It annoyed me enough to change mine.

yea certainly looking at that with the ability to see in. At the same time you can see the slight bit of eyes and start of a face through the ROTJ guard shots from the movie as well, so became a little less worried.
I was thinking though, out in the sun that will be completely different, and you would see into it a lot more than you do now and probably supposed to. So it's something I'll look at
RE: Hello from Sydney - Cybermew3 - Wednesday 15-Feb-2012
and then I became a member...
what a useful thread this has been for everyone. Seriously though I will get some photos up of the second set of robes I'm getting made when they are finished... will have about 6 meters more material than the FP ones and hopefully drape a lot more.
SO an official HI from TR-5973 now
Hoping to get up for Dream Worldhttp://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=14105
