I just wonder if they're permanent? I always thought Din would look cool as hell sporting double blasters.

Irongladiator is correct -- that was me ;) JasonTheConner - I use the ones like the pic below. I mounted them with two threaded posts JB Welded to the inside of my helmet, then I slide the fans over the posts and use a nut and washer to keep them mounted. I point them facing to the bottom...

I've been wanting a custom 1:6 Boba for my display cabinet for awhile now, but instead of having him wearing his ESB (my favorite version) I wanted to have him in a 3-piece suit holding his EE-3. I found a seller on eBay that does 1:6 resin casts of different SW characters so I bought his Boba...

There's a couple of things you can do. Fans: I use the same that TKs use - I have two mounted over my t-visor (one over each side) It keeps the visor and my head cool. There are a number of builders that sell pre-fab kits that you can buy (just google "helmet fans"). Fans solve overheating...

Tfett40 - I wanted to say thanks for your informative post. I'm now at the point of starting my paint and this is an absolute clinic on not only how to do it, but do it right. Thanks again!

My soldering iron worked like a champ - perfect hole and it's cauterized.

I just completed my HIC and he's sitting in my living room. I actually looked at it both ways, but in the end I just didn't want to build another project right after my HIC. I will probably eventually build one, but I really like what you did with yours. I just ordered a flat TV mount to put...

Hey Level... Will do! Are you part of any of the groups up there (Tulsa Star Force, 501st, JediOKC, etc.)? I'll message you the next time I'm up there!

Loooong time lurker but I've rarely posted and I don't think I did an introduction -- could be wrong though (too many Star Wars sites to keep up with). Thought I'd introduce myself. I studied this site the whole time I was building my ESB. I took a couple of liberties, but it's a constant...

Yeah, wasn't really thinking about it, and did it on the outside (stupid I know) but I'm sanding it down and repainting it tonight.

Sorry -- I thought I had posted pics with my submission! Here are the photos of the hack job I did to patch the hole. Now I don't know what to do. I don't know what version of bucket I have -- it's fiberglass is about the extent of what I know. I'm not as versed with my Boba Fett as I am...

Oh, I seriously want to cry. So I had my ESB armor and helmet on my mannequin in my office. The mannequin doesn't have a head so I rigged a styrofoam head onto it, and it's done well for the last three months... until last night! From my bedroom, I hear a CRASH...BAM! Run into my office and...

Welcome. Welcome. Welcome! Hope you find it as informative as I have. I'm a newbie as well, but I just finished my first ESB Fett - so feel free to message me if you ever have any questions!

I bought starchild99's set that he kindly offered. Thanks to everyone that replied! I appreciate your help!

Hey everyone -- I've been looking everywhere for a set (4) of the small gauntlet darts, but not having much luck. I dug through CARGO HOLD, but didn't see any listings. I also found a set on eVILBay, but they're coming out of Argentina and take like 6 weeks. Does anyone know where I might...
