Have you got a helmet fan? The TK lids steam up something chronic. I thought the fan I had in mine was more than adequate until the first time I trooped on a cold day and I went practically blind after 30 seconds!
I just sold the last parts of my TK, and my Jedi. Now Im down to USCM Marine, USCM Smartgunner and Malcolm Reynolds...
..although im sure my interest will peak again come December!
Thats next on my list, I have very long hair so it seems to compound the sweating in the bucket I just sold the last parts of my TK, and my Jedi. Now Im down to USCM Marine, USCM Smartgunner and Malcolm Reynolds...

How come you sold up? I quite fancy a crack at a Jawa next, I have marginal sewing machine abilities and I think it's doable.Anyway, don't want to derail too much but couple of pics
first on the me....
And on 'Dave' the mannequin... (note, helmet brow has been corrected since this was taken!)

I wanted to fund the smartgun rig, as im more involved in the Aliens side of things. I know a few 501st members, Ill probably end up bumping into you at some point! How come you sold up?

"Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper?"
5ft 5" but stock answer is perfect size for a girl 
I am short, but nowhere near the shortest apparently!
(answer was 'yes, and getting shorter all the time').
I'm frivolously looking at one of these:

Another kitchen gadget to get me fatter then take up cupboard space.

For some reason that link takes me to a download page for itunes?!http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HNSUHF0/ref=ox...

Talking of kitchen gadgets, the better half didn't need a matching cream Kitchenid kettle (with digital readout and programmable temperature). I definitely didn't need it, as it makes a bloody racket when I'm up early getting ready for work.
So I didn't need the nespresso machine I bought yesterday, although aforementioned better half may disagree, as her 'lovely' kettle was waking her up!
Can't believe the quality of the coffee considering zero effort and self cleaning. Just having my first proper latte at home

Can you show us some bits then? (Have a pulse rifle on a shelf in our living room ). A friend is massively into it, and very nearly bought one, until he was advised that the pulse rifle housing around the core m4 shaped variant wasn't strong enough to survive proper use in woodland.

There is a conversion kit available for airsoft Tommy guns. I own a Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1, not into airsoft at all, bought it before the ludicrous VCR act 'just because' I'd love the pulse rifle conversion but it's a frivolity beyond me, probably quite collectable though.A friend is massively into it, and very nearly bought one, until he was advised that the pulse rifle housing around the core m4 shaped variant wasn't strong enough to survive proper use in woodland.

The pulse rifle isn't the sturdiest of things, but I do know a few people who airsoft with them. The shrouds are quite durable, but stuff like the stock position mechanism are very fragile, and the magazine bottom is just a pop off cover, unless you get a small upgrade bit that attaches the cover to the magazine.
The smartgun on the other hand, thats now a deactivated MG53, so thats a bit sturdier...and heavier..

God alone knows why; it doesn't when I just checked it again.I've a slight suspicion amazon/ph are trying to be too clever with .co.uk/.com addresses and screwing up.
It's a Newwave Stone Bake Pizza Oven, anyway.

My pulse rifle is indeed the airsoft Tommy gun with the conversion kit. Feels very solid, with a great weight to it, but I've never been skirmishing with it so couldn't vouch for whether it's durable if regularly used.
