Evilshadow[501st] Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 The Commuter boots are fantastic but unfortunately they appear to be quite hard to find. eBay/Amazon/similar sites draw blanks at the minute sadly. It seems I was exceptionally lucky to find a pair in my size. On the topic of holsters, I'm talking with Burkbench about having a holster made that matches the images I posted above to fit a DH-17, which I should be ordering soon. I'm thinking that I should have the holster made in black leather then spray it with the Montana Gold so that it matches the boots and other components rather than try to source a matching green leather, which I imagine would be very difficult. Thoughts/issues with this idea? Rigger boots, that are the one that fits the look I've bougth this ones for 20 euros https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Rigger-Boots-Brand-New-Size-9/202335493982?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 Enviado desde mi CLT-L29 mediante Tapatalk 1 Link to comment

Blackwatch[CMD-DCA] Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) Ok everybody, I have cought back up with this topic, and re-re read the entire thing. My thoughts so far: 1: Boots The boots other than the one pair of jacks is clearly a green boot, and in my view the rigger/ commuter boot fits this shape. This is art and it may or may not be based on a real item. Either way, its our job to get close. I own a LOT of boots, but nothing like this. 2: Holster The holster appears green in art. I have asked Carl Luhman in Star Garrison if he can make green holsters. I just had him make me a custom E11 holster ( I have a hasbro mod) and for the first time in ten years I can holster my own E11. he informs me he can make green leather holsters. 3: CRL text I see the term Olive and Olive Drab used on the glove description. All the other parts use "OLIVE" as the term. Edited June 20, 2018 by Blackwatch clarify the color OLIVE vs OD bots and green holster 1 Link to comment
izzi[TX] Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 Alright, Luis from the LMO team is currently reviewing this unit, and the LMOs I guess are trying to decide how to handle the other IAT unit. Stay tuned for more information. Link to comment

Blackwatch[CMD-DCA] Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Rex the problem that we are currently having with the patches is that Sebastian had 200 patches created which sold out within just a few days. One of my local guys went back and purchased the last three that showed in stock sometime in February or early March. He's kind of been getting the runaround from WTF about the patches and or a refund which he has requested. Another of my local guys created his own patches but he has not answered me how he created them. He may have embroidered them himself on a home embroidery machine or he may have done it in vinyl like some of the tie pilot patches are done. Link to comment

If you're talking about the current CRL listed on the Legion site, that timing is out of our hands, and up to the LMOs to decide when it is no longer valid. We'll let everyone know if we get any information on it. Link to comment

izzi[TX] Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Locking this down until it goes live on 7/23/2018. Some minor changes are being made to the level 2 requirements. Full details will be disclosed when they are settled on. -iz 3 Link to comment
