Hey ISG family! Just checking in and saying hello. (i already have forum access) The family and I have recently moved to Carlsbad and whenever trooping comes back, we look forward to suiting up down here. Its been way too long! I don't spend anytime on FB really, so I will be checking in here and there. If anyone needs a Vader or the Deathwatch, we are always ready for deployment. Brian SL-25259, Torrey DS-77787 and Levi CD-1912 from SCG

I should be able to attend. I need to work on my TK. I will bring chips or desert. I am now approved and officially a member as TIE Reserve Pilot. I couldn't have done it without all the help I received from all of you at the armor parties

I'll save Brian's Secret Santa the time of having to wonder EXACTLY what he wants... https://www.amazon.com/Tennsco-J2478SUW-BLK-Wardrobe-Cabinets-Assembled/dp/B09NWFYJY1/ https://www.amazon.com/Deluxe-Rubberized-Plastic-Hanger-Hardware/dp/B089QG2982/

Hi 501st Imperial Sands Garrison. I am Steve I just bought a mostly complete biker scout from a former/inactive 501st member. I am looking forward to getting completed and meeting some more of San Diego Imperial County's Legion members.

Next armor party is this Sunday - bring your projects! Or if you don't have any projects to bring, come anyway to help others with theirs, and take part in the meeting. The 2019 list of "no"s: - no food challenges - no sanding by the microphone

My schedule has been rearranged so I can go. I'll bring the garrison shirt orders with me, so if you ordered, be sure to attend to pickup!

I would use CA glue for plastic, with 2 part epoxy a close second. And whenever possible, drill and pin the parts together, with nails, dowels, whatever.. It can keeps the parts from shearing off due to impact.

I will be making Kahula pig and if I can find the ingredients vegan bbq pulled jack fruit

I’m trying to get back in so I’d be willing/able to host like 6-8 people comfortably w/ enough distance to be mask on or off at your discretion

Hello all, I'm interested in joining the 501st legion in the San Diego area. I have been a life long Star Wars fan and have always been interested in making my own Star Wars themed armor. In December a friend of mine, (a 501st member) asked me to film him in armor as he dropped off a large donation of toys at the Ronald McDonald's house at Rady Children's in San Diego. We made the drop off and finished filming which was in itself a great experience, but what particularly stood out for me was when afterwards a mother of a child admitted in the hospital approached us. Her eyes were red and she was tearing up when she spoke to my 501st member friend in Scout trooper armor. She said that her son was in the hospital and it was his birthday, he loved Star Wars. She asked if she could take a video of him in armor wishing her son a happy birthday, which he happily did. Afterwards, she began to cry and she told him how much it would mean to her son. After this experience, I realized how much joy this organization can bring to children and others, and this has inspired me to join the 501st. I have begun printing my own Scout trooper armor to wear on future charity endeavors. I hope that this community might provide similar experiences and support for my armor building interests. Cheers, Rogue24

My big brown box came in today! Really excited but the more I pulled out the more intimidating it felt to start this thing. Not sure which part of the body to start off with or how to fit each piece >_< I’m thinking the arms would be my best bet and easiest to start with.

I currently do not have any armor to work on but would like to meet up and see what this is all about. I am looking to start on a set by the end of Feb.

Can you fit B1H1 with a bowling ball launcher and targeting system?

Joint 501st/Rebel Legion/Mando Mercs September Armor/Sewing Party and Meeting!!!

Cadets, friends and family welcome!

There is a strong possibility of my attendance.

Brian, I've got a nice spot all picked out for you, facing the back corner. ;-)

I will have shirts, any left over patches and coins, and lots of swag from Celebration to trade. Not to mention I'm trotting out the lobster so that @Gaanon and I can keep working on it. Plus, @DarthPaul finally has a day off to come out!

Hurray! I can make it! While everyone was at Celebration I (finally) finished my TK! I think. I would love to suit up for an inspection if someone with more knowledge than me can give me a once over for some feedback on anything I might have missed and should get done before submission (or if by some miracle all is passable, take some submission photos!). See you there!

To whomever is doing the pepper challenge please remember that I have artificial turf and I will be closing the toilets. Rent a porta potty!!

I'll take you up on that! I'm willing to come and help, but I don't need a gaffi. Rob gets a gaffi, I get free beer. Win-win!

I'll be there working on my Mando.

I have been working on my fist TK for the almost 1 month now. My mentor Brian Gelb and I, have my torso and arms almost done. This is what we have so far. I would love any and all suggestions on any improvements I can make. Thanks Manda

Quick preview of a project I’m about to start on...thanks to Leslie for the 3-D Printed Imperial Cog! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

501st Rosters being updated. We're looking good and having a lot less images missing. If you're missing info/photo, contact me so we can update. Also please check emails from me too. Thanks! But it's looking a whole lot better!!! See link below: ISG Roster

Came home from today's armor party to my suit in the mail. The wife and I will soon be at least part of the crew! Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Wendy and I will be providing Costco chicken pot pie and shepherd's pie.

Host says: “We will provide nacho fixings with the gloopy yellow cheese, chips and salsa.” Om nom!!!

DS-13366 requesting access. Updated my profile. Thanks!

I'll be there! Edit: seeing that there will be multiple pasta dishes, I've rethought the Mac & Cheese. Kristy Doo and I are teaming up to bring taco fixings instead!

Was blessed with this kit.... I need to retake photos later, but here it is for now. I look like an air bender... LOL! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Per Katherine, there are grills by the shelters. I googled the center and they are not reservable. First come, first served

LEATHER-- well thats got me sold!

Hi everyone! My name is Nicole and I'm currently in the process of putting together a TIE Reserve pilot with a full ROTJ TIE kit on order. I'm located in San Diego currently and hope to stay here through the rest of my husband's career (active duty Navy). I've gotten some great advice from a friend of mine who is already a member of the 501st but she's not local Regardless, I'm excited to be here and can't wait to meet you all!

I'm officially official! Could I please request forum access now? Thank youuuu!!

Hello all! My name is AJ, I just moved to the Carlsbad/Oceanside area, and will be stationed here for the next three years. I just started getting involved with the 501st through the Florida Garrison, and I currently have a TIE reserve, with hard armor on order to upgrade to an "active duty" pilot. My wife and I both have mando mercs in the messy stages of building, and I plan to put together a clone trooper as soon as I have time. Once armor parties start happening again, I'd love any advice or recommendations on building hard armor you guys are willing to give! Can't wait to meet you all and start trooping after the virus restrictions are lifted! K'oyacyi, AJ

I hope so! I rolled my best game EVER at the SCG Bowling with Buckets while wearing my Tusken helmet!

Welcome to the forums Steve! Glad someone local got that biker scout armor, as it sounded like a good deal. Hit up @khazara and @alscout if you have questions on what it needs for completion. Also http://www.501stpathfinders.com/ will have a wealth of knowledge for you!

There you go! Ready for submission!

Please, no choco-pepper challenge this time? No Tide Pods, cinnamon, death sticks or bantha hormones either...

Is there an ethical and legal way to, um, gamble on this? Meaning everyone picks their horse, and puts in, with all money going to the charity of the winners choice?! Or, we just scald our innards for fun.

Looks great. You know you're gonna have to start making these for the Garrison now.

CA glue would work. You could also use a 2 part epoxy or liquid nails. Here's a handy glue chart that someone shared...

Hi all, I am Tony (BH-9108) from the Ohio Garrison and will be in San Diego on business for the TLJ premiere. Was looking forward to either trooping (Jedi since it would be costly to check my Jango) or can be a handler and help out. I am looking forward to meeting my 501st family while out there -Tony
