Hey guys,
Typical SW fanatic moment...
Just hit me while looking over the Taipei Con Singapore armored troopers and with the exception of Darth Vader and Boba Fett, everone else is in white armor.
Only other time that happened in the movies was at Cloud City in ESB. Sure Vader's Helm was different, Stormtrooper helms had a different colored frown, no Scouts were seen and Fett was wearing a different suit variant BUT it's close enough right??? Black, White and Base Green/Multi-colored. [I need my meds...]
Enjoy...I know I did...
Stay safe,
Tim.

Can I ask you all a favor?
Can bring along Master Yoda for the trip and have his photo taken with the scene or yourself whenever you are free?
Master Yoda of the Yoda World Tour is now in Singapore and I am trying to stretch his visit till mid-Oct, visiting as many places as possible and have his photo taken there (best few will be put into the Journal that travel with him) before sending him off to New Zealand and the FanForce Group there.
Thanks!

More then words with a simply big THANK YOU !
By the phone call confirmation at 16:36pm to the home airport arrival of the elite troopers from Japan Garrison, mark the sucess finish to the events of Star Wars 30th and 501st 10th Asian 501st joint trooping event. Minutes after I hang up my cell phone chat of Maki whom just arrived at Japan Narita Airport, I couldn't help myself by relese all my emotion that kept holding in my heart for the past 5 days and broke to tears.
Named elite troopers from Malaysia-Brunei Outpost, Philippine Outpost, Singapore Garrison, Japan Garrison and of course our own Taiwan Outpost overcome the direct hitting of the one of the four recorded biggest hurricane in the past 100 years - "Typhoon Korosa". During the early morning of 10/6, every and each bravly troopers transfer the heavy armor under "devil" wind and rainstorm from doorstep of hotel to coach that park short distance away. The whole transfer of armor done once again when one of the coach emergency exit roof top blow away by strong wind and swiftly ordered of a new coach.
Asian 501st troopers were all cheer up disregard the whole coach were actually shaking on freeway to mission site of shopping mall and members of Taiwan Outpost drove bravly by private vehicle on freeway under hurricane...
Though with much persuade words from myself and Garry of event host company, the shopping mall decided to open and go-on for event at the very last minute but the whole mission run-down of 10/6 was serious affected. However...all of our mighty elite troopers adopted to all of the sudden changed to schedule and perform flawlessly to the relatively few visitors at shopping Mall until the unstable of electricity and flood at basement to the whole shopping mall, the mall was forced to close businesss at 17:30.
To the next day event of 10/7, the hurricane was leaving Taiwan and the original schedule of that day remain the same. The full parking of shopping mall mark the giant amount of mall visitors. Spirit of all elite troopers were even higher since then. Everything seems smooth but at the very last minute...we were informed to perform all 2 days event mission in that very 1 day of 10/7. Again...all of our mighty elite troopers adopted the sudden changed of event and did proud of our world-wide legion in front of the flow to 2,000+ local mall visitors!
More then words with a simply big THANK YOU to all of the named attended elite Asian 501st troopers and especially to COs of Peter, Manny, Paul and Yasu!
I could not go on with tears again now and please kindly wait for the upcomming detailed mission reports that already drafted up by lovly PR of this event - Regina from Philippine Outpost.
THANK YOU! SALUTE!
