Here is what I have modifying from your original post: Optional Accessories Items below are optional costume accessories. These items are not required for approval, but if present appear as described below. If adding in an accessory after initial, the item still needs to be submitted to local GML for approval before use. Black Pauldron • Must be black in color and made from vinyl, leather or leather like material. Must be worn over the right shoulder. Ammo Packs • Black MP40 style ammo packs made from leather or leather like material, one on each side, may be worn in place of drop boxes. • Flap buttons shall be silver in color. Shoulder Ammo Pack • Black MP40 style ammo pack made from leather or leather like material, secured on the upper left of the chest armor. • Flap buttons shall be silver in color. • If this shoulder ammo pack is worn it must be accompanied with the black pauldron and drop boxes on the belt. Belt cannot have pouches in lieu of drop boxes when the shoulder ammo pack is worn.

Completely agree with that: If used must be accompanied with a black pauldron and drop boxes on the belt. Belt cannot have pouches in lieu of drop boxes.

@Raider we can discuss the optional equipment?

Well done! Helmet is easily one of the pieces that can be a pain in the butt. Once you get those ears over it it should be solid.

Hmmmm not sure I even noticed that one on the other pics.

Looks fierce!!

Moving right on along! Congrats on the approval by the way!

That's interesting, where's the curve?

Awesome! Let us know how it goes and send some pics! ?

Very nice!

Well done!!

When you get that approval make sure to send me your favorite pic in it for social media blast!

Ahhhh I missed it when I clicked that last post notification. Damn, very nice man!!!

That's good! Can't wait to see the full suit-up pics.

That looks so good! A bummer that a piece was dropped and broke though...

Very nice pouches!

I think we can see the finish line in the near distance!

Looks sharp, trooper! Do you mind if we post to our social media? We'll indicate your TX number and garrison.

Good list there, can't wait to see the progress on it!

Color key is as follows: White = Not touched from original publish Green = Order changed Orange = Change made Blue = Level 2

Changes have been made as agreed above.

Got it! I'll make the changes when I get home from work tonight.

I posted the last revised CRL from earlier in the thread with all of our changes above. The stuff in orange I am not sure about but would help on clarification. It won't match the ROTJ one as much because we agreed to lose the "overlap construction" for a lot of it. Overlap construction was getting phased out of costumes earlier in the year on a few of them.

Rocket Trooper Helmet Lenses must be sufficiently dark enough to obscure the costumer's eyes. They are either flat or bubbled. Acceptable colors are black, smoke, dark green. Rubber black trim runs the length of the brow from the left to right front helmet traps. The brow shall go under the widows peak of mohawk. The "ear" bars have three or four bumps, and is gray or painted gray, with a black outline. Painting the bumps with rank stripes (Highlighted) in black is optional. The frown must have 8 teeth cut out and the coloring must not leave the indented area. The frown must be black. Black mesh must be used to obscure the face of the wearer. Tube stripes are medium blue and can be between 9 and 16 per side with the curve bends extending backwards. These can be either hand painted or decals. Vocoder (vertically ribbed chin detail) is painted black or gray. Two hoses are attached to the helmet, one on each side of the vocoder in the indentation where the aerators would be. Traps (trapezoids on dome of helmet) and tears (area beneath the corners of eye lenses) can be hand painted or decals. The tears must be gray with black outlines and have 5 vertical black lines. Note: The helmet is accurate in detail and proportion to official references. A mohawk runs across the top of the helmet from the brow to just before the curve at the rear bottom of the helmet.

The bottom of the widows peak overlaps a portion of the brow trim. A solid orange line approximately 3/8" (10mm) in width runs the length of the mohawk matching the reference photo. The line terminates near the rear of the mohawk and is followed by two squares of the same width and color. The color of the line matches or is similar to the orange used on the left shoulder bell. Gray stripes run parallel to the mohawk and end at the base of the rear traps and are approximately 1" (25mm). Two long triangles protrude from each stripe matching reference photos and are approximately 2" (50mm) in length.
