Cheap Storm Trooper Costume

[SergeantSoldier]

Okay, if this Tshirt makes ANY sense to you then good. Great. If not then I need to get better with my vague movie references. I knocked this T-shirt up one Halloween in college. Everyone does something silly to represent something else and lots of "so, what are you supposed to be?" to some hot girl who is of course a "vampire" and the ice is broken and you end up married. Some Tshirts have bigger stories than you'd think at first glance. So humble. And so, to build up my initial postings, and to get to know everyone, I offer this bona fide that I am a true red saw it in the theater in 1977 Star Wars FANATIC and I have been playing with the toys (note PLAYING) since they were offered I am now ready to graduate to full scale props in many genres. My name is Jim "Who Me?" Stormtrooper number TK420. I figure Luke is TK421. Funny? Not Funny? Can I go anywhere near that here? No? Anyhoo, the journey of a thousand miles, first steps and all that. HERE is my humble offering. BUMP at will to correct section on the forum for this stupid noobyscoobie. -Out

Is it an invisible costume? I see nothing.

A few seconds there hoss. It takes a few for a pic to get from East to West Texas. Shucks. Y'all know that.

So, I am a Stormtrooper, remember you are wearing this to a college halloween party so everyone wears sort of a mish mash of charades type costumes where if you put it all together it puns itself into the realm of the obvious somehow. Many costumes will be a stretch, but some are clever. I have no idea if I was batting that high, but there she is. So, who am I supposed to be, really? It sort of works at a few levels. It's me, in a "disguise" that's a disguise of a guy in a movie costume, and so on. It was funny as heck in college, I promise. What scene does this represent? I figure anyone with Star Wars chops can figure it out, but I've no idea if my sense of humor is very widespread so I could be wrong. What a great place to test that out? Be gentle kind reader. Anyone who can nail it pretty close gets a big HOOWAH from an old soldier, for what it's worth. So there. Is it at least funny? Not many people saw it and my idea is not for sale. Just my own private little halloween costume with a story that has its own story. Have at it and thanks for participating in my first thread on the RPF. -Out.

Maybe I need some caffeine. I am a Star Wars fan and saw it in 1977 (back when it was actually called Star Wars and not A New Hope), and whilst I get TK421 bit, I don't get the Tee Shirt (which is cool BTW).
