Galactic Marine from Sweden

Post by LeMartain »

Hello!

My name is Martin and I'm from Malmö, Sweden.
I got really interested and impressed with the Nordic Legion and 501st after having two troopers at my sons birthday earlier this year.
And now after visiting the Star Wars Days at Legoland I decided that I should build my own costume with my Star Wars crazy family backing me up.
I'm going to make an Galactic Marine costume and I have signed up for the Nordic Legion forums as well but, as far as I know, there are no GM's in the Nordic Legion... yet.

The plan is to have it ready and approved sometime in the first half of the next year.
If everything goes as expected I'm thinking of celebrating by bringing the whole family to the Star Wars celebration in London next year.

Any tips, hints or just a simple good luck wish would be really appreciated.

Cheers!

Yes, indeed it is. And you whats funny? The Snowtrooper outfit is a lot like the uniform kids in Sweden wear to school at winter time.

You are most welcome! But I'm afraid that I might have stretched the truth a little bit in my last post :oops:
There are of course no schools in Sweden... :wink:
