  1. This detachment does have a lot to choose from, are you the only one who's interested or is your wife interested? My wife and I are Darth Revan and Bastila Shan from KOTOR. A couples costume set might be something fun, just go through the CRL and do some research on what you might be comfortable walking in, standing in, etc... Remember there are never any dumb questions.

  2. Hey guys i forgot what strapping is best:

    Is it Cross Braided or Straight Braided?  

     

    width of 1" or 1" 1/4?

     

    Of course Black, but i need to replace the tied threads and i need to replace the front belt straps with something more durable in the heat. The Summer tore it up... 

    Is Vinyl or Leather ok? as long as it all matches right?

     

    and where the hell can i find CA Glue? 

     

    I got the MWA Set....so any recommendations appreciated. 

     

  3. I have a thin vinyl; its a dark red without a shine, it was only $5, used some of it for a TK pauldron, so ended up with a lot left, figured i could use it elsewhere. i'll look at different stuff.

  4. Same Here, i got Wicked Armor's Kit, imo the Big Water Kit looks like its for Revan Reborn from SWTOR expansion pack Shadow of Revan....the CRL states you can have your soft parts be torn on the bottom as like Reborn, so it may work for that stage of Revan.

  5. You hit the nail on the head Dawn. We knew that when Disney took over, things were changing. So as representatives of LFL, WE as the 501st/RL gotta roll with punches too. Make the changes needed to function better as a legion and to allow more "New (Disney Era)" fans to experience the characters they are now seeing. I'm sure i'm not the only Revan that has been called "Kylo Ren" by new fans and well some old fans too. 

  6. Yeah just got caught up on that thread, i agree there is a need for 2 new DET, Underworld Det is already being started, but the "New Canon Dark Side DET" (way too long) should have CW, Rebels and (2012-) Disney Era Characters that fit respectively, everything (1977-2012) would be ours includes SWTOR as EU. And of course if Snoke, Kylo or someone is a "DARTH" then they can moved to SLD...Thoughts???

  7. I do believe that's what they saw...and yes i so agree with on them opening up new detachments for new characters. What's gonna happen with "Rouge One" and "Han Solo" movie? They can't all be in TFE as far as the Baddie's go. Seeing as how Clone Wars and Rebels are Canon, shouldn't the Nightsisters/Talzin, Savage, Ventress, etc be apart of that new Canon DS DET? To me it only makes since, and it would a starting ground for that new DET.

  8. Should we take these guys under TFE? if so, should we wait till more info is released in Ep 8/9 about them? All the hoopla over them is causing a stir in my garrison, so i need this answered asap...all the pics are online (google search)....5 Knights of Ren.

  9. Sorry for digging up an old thread, but what's your thoughts on Vader Vault's Rev-n Elite in terms of being approved?  Thinking about going this route if it is good, but don't want to drop the cash if it won't be approved.  Thanks for your insight!

    They have a Copper emitter instead of Gold, there is a difference. Also it has only 1 activation switch instead of 2 like the game. So I got the Saber Forge Fallen "HILT" w/ Custom Insides and a V4 blade....280.00 Total instead of close to 400.00. JMO

  10. If you need some tips on how to keep the extra fabric under control check out what I did with mine: http://www.theflagshipeclipse.com/forums/index.php?/topic/979-darth-brutes-revan-build-thread-finished/?p=13584

     

    If you come up with your own solution please post it! You would only be helping out other Revans. Great build keep up the good work!

     

     

     

     

     

    Hey i found that a bobby pin and black grip tape works....pin the ends of the fabric then tape over that same pin on the back side of the chest armor.

  11. I did do an unveil for a couple of Halloween parties, and found that i had to buy gorilla tape. I tape the excess fabric to the chest piece which workout great. I do need to get Touch-Up paint for armour and mask...anyone know what colors other than black/red? MWA has the paint for the armour, but would like to find it here in SD.

     

    I spoke to Stuart Loui of Imperial Sands Garrison, he is willing to take Pics.

     

    And anyone know who to speak to for Rebel, my wife is done with her Bastila Shan, but Sunrider Base is like spread throughout SoCal. I'll check the their forum on how to submit.

  12. Hey just wanted to post a pic, Wicked Armor made it, but i am assembling it, really is complex when it comes to fitting. I need to replace my gloves; to thick for braces. My hood is ok for now, but need to hide the extra fabric somehow??? There are always little tweaks here n' there...kinda hard to take a selfie with a gloved hand StarWarsEmoticons_biggrin.png

  13. Hello,

     

    Darien from San Diego, CA

     

    Currently looking at and will need help with building Darth Revan, looking to join Imperial Sands Garrison (formerly San Diego Squad). Order the "Fallen" by Saber Forge - 7/2/15, they are back ordered for 6-8wks, so gives me time to start the build.

     

    New Member to San Diego Star Wars Societies and the newly formed Saber Legion - SoCal Charter.

     

    Former member of a motorcycle club, wanting to do something more....i do still ride tho, "RevanRider" explained.

     

    Found 501st and SDSWS thru youtube of all places; the Celebration '15 vids, so I checked out the FB pages to all and saw that it was something i would enjoy. Kinda brings me back to my days as a character and escort at six flags MM.
