Had my first troop with my son today..

[burnsy]

Got out for a small family fun day in Watford today.

Special one for me as it was the first time my son Fin went out with us.

He loved it, he was in costume for nearly 4 hours witha couple of breaks.
He was in his element and he loved the attention.

 

[silver grin]

looks great Stu. I take it you were the Fett man once again? You retired the Stormie suit?

 

[burnsy]

I was Fett, haven't been out in the Stormie for a while bud.

Where abouts do you live burnsy?? noticed the day out was in watford

 

[burnsy]

I'm in Stoke Poges, near Slough/Uxbridge.

Trooping in Kingston tomorrow at the Bentall's centre if anyone fancies popping down.

 

[jedi_masters]

Ah man i'm busy all day tomorrow doing fathers day things. You got a calender or something of when you guys are trooping?? Be good to come down and have a chinwag!!

 

[burnsy]

Yeah, I've been lucky to get away with trooping on Fathers Day.
The missus and the kids are meeting me there to go for a meal afterwards.

We're at London Film and Comic Con in a few weeks, that's always a good event.

This photo is superb two of my childhood memories, SW and those large 1970s tents that were everywhere on campsites of my youth.I'd like to think this is the sort of camp that the Imperials would have set up on Endor.

Stu, absolutely amazing mate! I would have done anything to have done that when i was a kid. Sadly i'm way to tall to be a Jawa nowadays. The costume is amazing too! 8) 8)

[Wookie-Balls]

Great pics Burnsy, the wife and I may be popping down to the comic convention - if we do I'll be sure to say 'hi'

 

[Imperial nut]

just class man , so cool. the other kid looks amazed at seeing a small jawa.

 

[Lee Gregory]

Quality Stu just pure quality.

Are you forcing your lad to come to MEM in November?? Don't recall seeing any Jawa's in the troops there before!! That would be mint!!

 

[Caswellbot]

[spoons]

great stuff Nurnsy - you and your son look excellent

that Vader made me laugh, not the tallest one out there is he :wink:

 

[burnsy]

Cheers guys, it was brilliant yesterday even though it was a small troop.

Kingston today was bloody brilliant. We had Bikers, Tie Pilot, Vader, Shadow troopers and around 8 Stormies.
Also had R2 buzzing round the Bentall centre which has made my mind up that this is my next project.

It's gonna take a few years to put an R2 together but I'm gonna give it a go.
