WELCOME PATROL TROOPER!

[BikerScout007]

Pathfinders Command is proud to announce a new costume to the lineup:  The Patrol Trooper, as seen in "Solo: A Star Wars Story."

This CRL was the result of a lot of hard work with not a whole lot of references!  As you know, the Patrol Trooper was in the film for all of 2.5 seconds -- what you saw in the trailer was pretty much it!   Thanks to everyone who chipped in on the CRL thread, posting every photo they could possibly find, both from the film and from the Hot Toys Patrol Trooper.

And of course huge thanks goes out to Denis Vorobiev, aka @Spiel who was the first to the finish line with his build and is our CRL model.  We could not have done this without his help.

I also want to give a huge shout out to Chris Reid, aka @Reideemer, our LMO representative who really helped us hone the CRL and get it ready for approval from the whole LMO team.  We could not have done this without your guidance, Chris!

Now, I did ask for "PT" for the designation, but it looks like the Legion assigned it "TB." In this case, it's not a huge stretch as there are massive similarities between the Scout and the Patrol Trooper.   

But the CRL is live and you can find it here:

AND THAT'S NOT ALL!

In anticipation of the Patrol Trooper's approval, we have already prepared its very first merch run.   @plagu3is will be posting up the Coin and patch run tonight!   The Patrol Trooper helmet logo will be joining the rotation on the splash page, and we have a new forum banner also featuring our newest member -- designed by the one and only @Shortstack

Pathfinders -- always moving forward!

Thanks for getting that armor done, Denis!  
I've temporarily given you a Biker Scout badge until we get a Patrol Trooper group and badge made!

This is amazing news to start the day!

THANK YOU to everyone who worked so hard!
@BikerScout007,  @Spiel, @Reideemer and everyone else!

I admit I was a bit disappointed it didn’t get its own designation - but "TB" is great!
In fact I probably honestly like it a bit better than "PT"... which would make us sound as much like "physical therapists" as troopers. 😂

Hahaha when I hear "PT" I think of "Full Metal Jacket".  But I agree, TB works for this guy.

Everyone!  Lets welcome @Spiel as the Legion-First Patrol Trooper!!

 

Congrats, and Well Done!!
