Title: Vader sent me
Post by: Tombstone9 on December 08, 2007, 01:17:34 PM
Hi everyone,
My name is Abe, and about a year ago I went to the Star Wars experience at OMSI. While there I ran into of a few troopers and a very intimidating Sith lord who was very personable, and after some talk told me to check out these forums.
So here I am as ordered, one year later thanks to a busted brain pan ;) Memory suddenly kicked in and I remembered the name of the website.
I look forward to learning more about the 501st.

A little about myself:
I am the 3rd key manager at GameStop in Clackamas,
I am an avid airsofter,
and I am multilingual. English, Japanese, and Sarcasm ;)
pleased to meet ya! (<-- not sarcasm)

Welcome, Abe! Are you looking to get some Imperial armor together or some sort of Rebel Alliance getup? :)

Imperial trooper if I could,
I dont really have the look for...somebody not covered head to toe in armor, haha.
I've always had a funny fuzzy feeling in my gut towards black hole stormtroopers.
Hoping to pick up some info from existing threads on how to start the process of getting a kit together.

Welcome, Tombstone9!

Personal Messages (PM's) are the best way to go for finding armor 'contacts' - to keep names out of the public eye.
We can also help you determine whether sources are the 'best' out there or not, so please don't hesitate to PM folks!  The moderators under the 'Armor' section are a good starting point.  :wink:

Welcome.  If you can hook us up with with a few Wii's before Christmas, I'm sure that we can let you hang out for awhile. :mrgreen:  Just kidding I already have mine for the kids.  Take your time, do the research, and don't be afraid to ask questions.  Be very cautious before buying off Ebay.

Haha, I dont even have a Wii yet thanks to the Christmas season, they're all gone before I ever get to work.
If there is one thing I have learned via Airsoft, its that ebay is not my friend. Thank you for the information on how to get started. I'm tempted to make a joke about how all of your inboxes cannot repel PM's of this magnitude...but I'll pass on that for now ;)

Does that mean I'd be left to my lonesome as a Phase II Dark Trooper?

Or would I just be the not-so-quiet fire support who you use for an entry tool... You know, like Mal and Zoe taking Jaine on a covert op!

Y'ought to do something about that cough. Must be from inhaling all of that dust as you are blown off of your speeder by a cute little ewok.   :wink:

Ewoks are not cute.  They are vicious, ravenous, evil creatures that lure you in with their cute little look then roast you alive and devour you.
