Double Approval for Skids with his Shoretrooper Squad Leader and A New Hope: Tie Fighter Pilot








Real name : Skids
Forum name: Adam.s
TKID: ST5722 / TI 5722
Character: Shoretropper Squad Leader and Tie Fighter Pilot: ANH
Why: I chose the Showstopper because it chose me, Kev - Imperial Surplus asked me to join him and his friends to try and have his ST at all Rogue One launches world wide, we all worked secretly on them and time got us, parts went missing, and many of us just couldn't get everything on time. So I thought why rush.... (editor's note: it was started in August 2016)  I'm not one for spoilers but I couldn't say no to this, and I absolutely love this armour, it just doesn't love my body.

I chose the TIE Pilot for fun and flexibility  and expanding waistline haha also I wanted to keep it OG.

About myself: I like Turtles!
Favorite droid: My favorite droid is the R2 and 3P0 combo, they are classics but in modern times I am partial to Chopper and K-2S0 for their cheekiness.

and not a Fresh Meat but Congratulations to Darren - TX- 11412 on becoming only the sixth “Specialist” Mudtrooper in the mighty Spec Ops Detachment of the 501st Legion.



Darren has been an invaluable asset to the Mudtrooper Community whilst discovering a number of found parts enabling one of the most screen accurate CRLs we have seen to date.
