But then I have to use something from Fortnite, which might break my soul. Buuuuuttttt...thank you.

I went through the giant thread of sound files, but I didn't see anything like that. Plenty of other stuff to use though. Here is the thread if anyone else is interested. https://www.501st.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=28538

I thought someone had posted a link to a sound file to use for a "bagged" Grogu from season 1, but I cannot seem to find it. Web searches have turned up loops, but the sound effects have maybe a 1 second pause in between. Thanks in advance.

I am usually the one getting help, so I am glad to help others

@Pledford @AradunFF The video is still processing, but it should be up in a little while. A bit of a rush job, but it should do. https://youtu.be/_5mTWXoZV-s

If I got time tonight I could probably do that.

@Pledford That is the 35". Everything fits just right https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-35-in-Rolling-Tool-Box-222167/205053257

I ended up putting 3M Dual Lock "velcro" in the top and on the headband. It is all one type and interlocks instead of hook and loop. Shout out to @spyder918 for the help. https://imgur.com/a/dQvjnHn <-full album and further description

So I purchased the helmet headband kit from kwdesigns/Imperial Surplus to put in my Altman. I previously had a non-adjustable hardhat band that was ok but I definitely wanted something easily adjustable. The problem is, the headband doesn't fit perfectly in the Altman helmet. I though it would line up with the bolt holes, but nope! It was suggested that I drill a hole just next to the bolt hole and put another on in the headband itself to attach it that way. Anyone else have the same setup and have any dos or don'ts before I start drilling away?

The boots are in there. The helmet is in a separate bag. I had a motorcycle helmet bag, but I just picked up a flight helmet bag because it's got a long strap on it. Plus Velcro for patches.

So I might be traveling a bit with my helmet and I was wondering what people use for a padded helmet bag or hard sided case? I have a motorcycle helmet bag now, which has a little bit of padding, but not enough to really protect it well. It is fine to and from troops, but that is about it. Air travel is a bit different, something I could use as a carry-on would be perfect

The inside is not cracked, it looks like just the paint. It is only about a year old, with maybe a dozen troops under it. I don't tighten the bolts too much either, for this exact reason.

I have had my Altman for a while, but the top of visor near the bolt is cracking a bit. I am just wondering the best way to fix this and maybe prevent it (as best I can). Thanks!

So the one I got is...gross. Any ideas for cleaning and dyeing? Any particular dye brands/colors I should go for?

Forgot I said I would post mine. The only thing missing is the blaster, but that goes in the removable bin. Belt and thermal det are rolled up in towels.

I'll take a picture when I get home tonight.

I have mine in a Husky 35" rolling tool box. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-35-in-Rolling-Tool-Box-222167/205053257 Everything just fits, and I have some towels in there for padding as well. The only quirk is that I have to take the tank off the armor, but its only on there by a magnet at the top and a bolt at the bottom. All the other arm pieces go into the chest armor along with the tank, belt and detonator separate, boots underneath the little storage bin with the holster sticking just out from under it. I use the little storage bin to keep cards, swag, amp+mic, some tape, balaclava, etc. Gloves fit in where ever, then a folded up flight suit and cummerbund go on top. keeps everything in place so stuff isn't thrashing about. I have my helmet in a (slightly) padded motorcycle helmet bag.

It was more of just curiosity since I saw the gloves on Imperial Boots. Under our vendor list there is Sith Armory, but a quick Google search didn't yield any results.

Credit for your thoughts? Wampa Wear vs Imperial Boots vs whoever else I don't know about. I currently have Wampa Wear, just wondering about the other options. Go!

Bridge Crew is probably the cheapest one to make and a great starter costume. You get to be in costume while also act as a handler, since you can actually move around well and your vision isn't obstructed. It is a great way to check out and learn about the different armors first hand. Warrant Officer with "cheap" boots would work as well if you wanted the officer look. I am actually working on a few guides right now to include vendors, tips and tricks kind of thing. If you are interested shoot me a message and I will send you what I have.

I don't feel so bad now, having to constantly fight with mine...

I got really flustered with my build as well. This forum and Corey (Chopper) really helped out. If you joined the OLG Academy, you could probably reach out to Bryan or whoever your advisor is for more help. Lots of resources here and everyone is helpful and friendly!

At that price point I would just either make your own or order from people on the vendor list. Pretty sure it would be cheaper and it is tailored to you.

I am assuming this is just the material off of the glasses case clips to give the det clips more grip?
