that was dressed in, yellow, TK armor at the last University of Oregon, football game?

[Background]

I was talking with a friend who told me they had seen someone in, U of O, yellow armor; at thier last game. So? Who was it. I am curious and want to see pics.

Maybe Paul?  I think he and Tony went down to the game, and Tony was in "Duck Vader" gear.   :D

NAH, it wasnt any of us. We only were at the Halloween game. Rick and I have been way too busy to make our pics available yet. Rick was "Duck Chewey", Paul was "Duck Rocach", and I was "Duck Vader", (the original from 3 years ago, there are now 3 pathetic copies). Our seats were not "camera priority". The cameras always focus on the student section, which luckily for "duck stormtrooper", they STAND for the whole game :wink:. As to his armor, he has used it at 2 games now, and it looks so flawlessly gloss yellow that it seems to be made from "duck yellow" ABS...................ol tony

I was interested in this, and I managed to find a few pics for ya:

... it looks so flawlessly gloss yellow that it seems to be made from "duck yellow" ABS...

I too was hoping it was a one-off yellow setup.  Unfortunately, under closer scrutiny, this doesn't seem to be the case from the pics I found.  It looks (to my untrained eye) like a painted FX setup.  I'm a noob, though, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

Good find!  This is definitely a painted FX suit.

I love seeing custom suits like this.  Always fun seeing a Stormtrooper outside his element.   :lol:
