Hi from San Marcos

I have been a big fan since 77 and now I have finally decided to take the next step and buy some armor.

Currently I am looking at the TK from ANA and Anovos. But also interested in the new FA TK from Jim in the Philippines.

Anyway I hope to be trooping later this year with you guys and gals.

Thanks,

David

Welcome David!

Make sure you visit the proper detachment and view the CRL for your costume. They will set you on the right path for getting approval.

• We have a CRL (Costume Reference Library) that contains Visual Guides for every costume in the Legion. These are the standards you will need to meet with your costume. Here is the list of Visual Guides by detachment, and an alphabetical list by costume:

• Each costume type has a Detachment. Detachments are websites for members or potential members looking to build that particular costume. It’s there you can find out where to buy kits and parts, and everything you need to know about how to assemble the costume. Here is a list of all the detachments.

The detachment should be your first stop, and you will spend a lot of time there researching your costume. You should not make any purchases without getting the OK from the detachment to make sure it is acceptable for membership. Many items can be purchased directly from the “For Sale” section on the detachment website. Once you get started on your costume build, you should start a WIP (Work in Progress) thread on the detachment forum. As you post your progress, the members will help steer you in the right direction. That will help ensure that when the costume come to me for approval, it won’t require time consuming or costly revisions.

That's great!  We try to have an armor party every six weeks or so.  January and February are going to be filled with our current prop build days in preparation for our Airshow event in El Centro.

Be sure to keep an eye on the forum for SDCC stuff.  There's a lot we do there!
