I really enjoyed my first troop as a 501st member. Bit of a long day but the imperial officers costume is pretty comfortable. My daughter really enjoyed coming along in her jedi padawan costume too -

Enjoy day 2

had a great day.cheers guys.

hi guys,
was a great day.the vibe was electric,the fans where primed and keen,the photo's where non-stop.
i can't believe how many people where standing in line for this event (!!!)
kirrin & i had a beer at the nearest pub (in armor) in the afternoon,was very good !!
the general feeling from the punters was awesome,and wearing the white (or slightly dirty ??!!)
armor was a priviledge.
people came up to us for photo's relentlessly,and we loved it !!
screen accurate troopers,and adoring fans..........heaven on a stick !!
chris & i ate burger king at lunchtime in armor,was a good laugh.
thankyou matt,kristy,dean,and auckland city for the awesome day.
graeme,man you rock,is always a pleasure to be in your company,welcome aboard to mark.
thanks to the girls from brass magazine for being so cool.
was also a pleaure to troop with chris,damn i was glad to see you.peace out to you dude.

Dang! I wish I'd gone now... :( Sounds (and looks) like you guys and gals had a lot of fun. I would have loved to have done some trooping outside the event, it's always the best part! :P

Day 2.

Here's Richard Hatch on stage. He was very interesting, a good speaker, and showed a couple of his sci-fi project teaser vids (including his famous BSG: The Second Coming trailer).

He also signed my Colonial Warrior blaster display (will post pics of that later).

"that guys not a tk,....hes a necromonger !!!!"...........run for your lives !!!!!..............
(slightly miffed that i had to leave as i was with friends and missed seeing matt in the necro armor)
that armor looks swwweeet matt,i must catch up with you and view it sometime.
all in all,day 2 was just as much fun as day one (i just walked through the crowd and enjoyed the gazillions of photo requests.......too cool.the folks loved to pose with me,and i loved the response from them.
the cruisy enviroment,and good vibe mood of the crowd was awesome to be among.
to anyone considering gettin themselves a set of armor,i quote the following famous words from one ferris bueller........" if you have the means,..i highly reccomend picking one up"
(of course,in the movie he is referring to a ferrari,but after the weekend at armageddon,i think a ferrari takes second place to a set of tk armor !!)

It's been a most interesting few days up here... had more photos taken than I could ever count, had conversation with a few names, and got my bum pinched by Jay! :huh:

It's been well worth the money spent on the trip up. I can't wait for Wellington Armageddon... got to figure out what set to build for it!

awesome pics guys - looks like one hell of a great time :)

A couple more of the non-Imperial ones:
