Hello everyone,
My name is Robert I started to cosplay just before the Pandimic so my cosplay dreams ended before it began, a chance meeting at a home depot started this new path which I'm very excited about.
I don't have a name to go by yet so Robert will work for now.
I'm in Tigard OR.
I hope to be a asset to the group, if there is a character that is needed I'm open to giving it a shoot

Thanks for this opportunity.

Welcome Robert.  The characters in this range from a few hundred to multiples of thousands of dollars, so that is a choice for you to make alone. If you are interested in getting your feet wet without breaking the bank, I would suggest the Tie Pilot Reserve or Scanning Crew as those can be accomplished pretty easy and inexpensive.

Tie Reserve CRL  https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TI_reserve_pilot (https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TI_reserve_pilot)

Scanning Crew CRL https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:IC_imperial_scanning_crew (https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:IC_imperial_scanning_crew)

If it was me personally, I would go for the Tie Pilot Reserve, because all you need to do would be purchase the Helmet & Armor and now you are a Tie Pilot and have 2 approved characters! 

Tie Pilot CRL https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TI_TIE_Pilot_ANH#Version%20One (https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TI_TIE_Pilot_ANH#Version%20One)

However, if you know this is something you are going to want to do.... Pick the character that you want and go from there.  We will be more then happy to assist you and make sure you get pointed in the right direction for your build.  If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask!

Welcome Robert,

I 100% agree with Nathanzx10r’s recommendations, but I’ll promote the Scanning Crew as a great entry to the club.  It can be easily upgraded to the AT-ST Driver and the AT-AT Driver.  I have all 3, so let me know if you have any questions.

Don't forget that Rebel Legion has options, too. :wink:
