July 4/ lend a helmet/gun, Please?
I'm Jason from Gardner, KS and am going to join the 70th as soon as I get my costume done. While i do admit that im not with the 501st yet, i have most of a working suit completed - except for the helmet, and the lack of a prop-blaster.
i was wondering if anyone who was also marching in the Lenexa parade would be kind enough to lend me a helmet and blaster for the day/ span of the event.

Walmart & ToysRus dont have them..... like, at all - despite what their websites tend to indicate.
heres the wal-mart site of it http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product. ... id=5734128
in store? SOL
Toys R us? same answer
Target? had them, emphasis on 'had'
online? sure, if you want to wait 2 weeks or more, unless you pay more for turbo shipping. how much more? already strapped for cash and i dont care to find out.
given that im already limited to in-city/ immediate area events (no car of my own), i really dont have time to wait around when theres an event i ACTUALLY CAN attend going on in a week, and my costume is mostly done to a semi-working status, with me trying to get as much finished within said week, and resources end up to be sorely lacking when actually investigated.

If you are looking for a Screen accurate TK bucket, be prepared to pay about as much as you paid for your armor. You got a Kit with no helmet right???? Try around 350 - 400 bucks. Also If you do get a Screen accurate bucket, ask for help to put it together.

I agree come on out and hang with us a bit...make some freinds at least!
