My ESB Fett -- BH-20065 -- 501st APPROVED!!!!!

Looks awesome- congrats

I'm almost there; have to put on the elastic thong strap, maybe replace my flamer. Thanks for the motivation
 
So I signed up to do my first troop on March 25th. I've read the rules of conduct for the 501st and my Garrison, so I'm good on that. But I was wondering if there's any Boba Fett specific pointers.. LOL?

Alot of head nodding! I think the biggest thing is get use to the turning and walking of the jetpack through door ways and crowds. If you are not mindful, it will bump into alot of things. If you are stopped somewhere taking a photo, make sure you look down, right, left and proceed to walk. Even though the visor has good visibility, you can easily miss someone shorter directly in front of you or to your side. Have fun and enjoy.

All good stuff!! Thank you!
 
Congratulations on your approval and signing up for your first troop! In addition to what was said above, just pay attention to what's working and not working with the suit. It's not uncommon for wardrobe malfunctions to occur. Don't get too bothered if it happens. I know on my first troop I discovered that my gauntlets pinched my wrists pretty good and my cod/kidney stud bolts dug into my hip bones. I made the necessary corrections afterward and haven't had any issues since. In the end, the most important thing is really to have fun with it. It's easy to do because of the sheer joy your presence will bring to young and old alike. Boba is always a star on troops. Post some pics afterward.

Thanks man, I'm pretty excited! And your suggestion on altering my suit so my thigh pouches were higher was spot on. Looks much better now. Don't worry, I plan on getting tons of pics and I'll share. Never too much Boba porn... Lol.

That's something I need to do as well.
