Dammit! Every time I try to leave, they pull me back in. This looks incredible. My only nit pick is the trimming and shape of the shoulder bells. It's probably the photo not doing them justice but the eFX bells dont seem to show the same form as the originals. They still resemble the RotJ...

I was going to comment on what a nice person you must be to hang out with, being all intolerant and argumentative and such but then I thought I'd keep it simple. Feking eejit.

What does it matter someone's reasons for wanting to be part of something? I detest snobbishness and have left groups that have become that way in the past. I don't have a problem with 'fair-weather' costumers. If the temperature of that particular scene is red hot and people want to join in...

The trouble is, nobody is really sure how to enforce this silly act. It's a lottery with the customs guys. Evidently, judging from a previous post about a so called police expert saying it's okay to own a replica as long as it stays at home the police aren't too sure either. At a...

i'm also having a hair metal renaissance at the moment. My band at the time supported Saxon in the early 90's. Biff Byford was a total legend even though he was now playing smaller venues. He still came out with his trademark cup of tea LOL. Heard ride like the wind on a dance remix at work...

I don't think he meant it quite in that way. As the book deals with mindless violence from teenage thugs so it also deals with government sanctioned violence against the people and more importantly the states use of aggressive methods to cure the ills of society with brute force and brainwashing...

Well, it would be had Kubrick not read the American version that omits the final chapter where Alex finally outgrows his sociopathic urges through free will and not brainwashing and as the book is sort of about redemption through free will the film generally falls flat in that regard.

The Entity. This film was based on a true story IIRC. The Jaws head scene as many have mentioned already. Saw it when I was no more than 8. Gave me nightmares for months.

Re: RS Prop Masters ANH stomtrooper build: 2 sets of armor: 1 full PVC kit+helmet, 1 The original strapping method when applied to this particular suit adds to the overall ANH feel as much as the contours of the armour itself in my opinion. After 7 years and many different armours I think I'm...

The shins are closed with a strip of elastic glued to the side that has the cover strip on. The elastic has hooks sewn on and they fasten to holes drilled on the other side and the cover strip overlaps enough to hide these holes. The armour pieces are all held together with brackets and...

I've also been working on one of Si and Rob's RSProp Master armour kits over the last few weeks. I'm 99% finished and have placed it all on the ever patient and quiet Derek the mannequin. I've just gaffa taped the belt bits on for now and am in the process of...

That old man's mad You said it Chewie. Boy, where'd you dig up that old fossil?

If I'm not mistaken she is LFL's PR person. She and Steve Sansweet would often be seen together and I know she has been the instigator and go to person for any LFL and 501st promo events. I could be wrong. I often am.

Cool interview. That stormtrooper helmet really is superb as are both the Vaders. As for your online persona being a tad 'spikey' in some folks eyes, you are living the dream man, living the dream and were you to come across as a touch arrogant online, I think I can now understand why and...
