Hi all.
Dino here in Loganholme QLD. Been a Star Wars fan all of my life (well begining when I was 4 years old watching ANH at the drive-in) and have been gradually adding props and collectables to the man cave for as long as I can remember.
With Christmas just gone, my wife had a great idea to suprise me with a Stormtrooper Armour set bought from UK. Now I thought the best place to begin this project will be to talk to the team in the know ('redbacks'). I have read through some threads here and there is talks about 'costume forum' get-togethers. How do I find out more about these events. I'm sure 10 minutes talking to you guys will equate to months to me going alone.
Having been a father recently, I am keen to beging trooping when the full costume is completed. and enjoy seeing the crowds generate arount the 501st. A little worried about dropping dead from heat exhaustion in the QLD summer though!
I am 91kg and 184cm, with a face that should be covered with a helmet
Sorry for going on and on, but thought I could get it all out at once.....
Looking forward to meeting you in the new year. Remember kids 'don't do deathsticks'.
