Hello All!
I am obviously a newbie here to Blizzard Force!
I am here because I want a costume I can sit down in and also be comfortable in! This costume would be appropriate in Michigan right about now! LOL!
I am TC-9296 and the GML of the Great Lakes Garrison. Some of you may recognize my name from CTN and other forums.
My primary costume is a 501st Clonetrooper. I have built a Biker Scout for my wife TB-9237.
It's time for a new costume and I thought a Snowtrooper would be fun. Currently we only have one in Michigan.
I hope to learn a lot and also have some fun here!

You'll love wearing a snowtrooper. It is soooooo comfortable.

Shhh !!~~!! its one of the Best kept secrets in the 501st.....LOL...
But I must admit, I do love it. I had a troop on the weekend with 6 stormies, 2 Sandies and the Missus for a very sick 6y/o boy fighting for his life.
We had to wait inside his apartment to give him a nice surprise when he got home, and had about an hour in armor before he arrived... the "TK/TD's were stuck standing around

....
I had my Snow Commander and proceeded to at first sit down on the floor and then reclined back and propped myself up on one shoulder.... and I kept smiling up at them the whole time

...
I now have one of those troopers asking "How they can go Snow"....LOL
