Yes but its more than just that, the present staff officer CRL will be replaced with this new one. Obviously there will be a period of time before it happens to give people time to finish costumes they are working on. 

That's a discussion we can have.  I'll be honest in saying though, that I'm pro hats.  I've always liked the sans hat option the way it is now; where you go for level 2 or 3 as a hatless officer rather than at level 1.

It's absolutely TIE Fighter, and I cannot wait for Squadrons now.

I was wearing my Royal Guard at a local Xmas pageant and someone called out Darth Vader, and usually get mistaken for Vader when I wear my Gunner!

Evening officers 

with all the New Star Wars video games on PS4 etc. what’s your favourite old school SW game ? Old School games are sometimes the best - mine is 
(Shadows of the Empire) N64 - 1996 
 

It might not be considered that old school but for me it was definitely the Jedi Knight series, specifically Outcast and Academy, I grew up playing the life out of those games 

Mine is the old Tie Fighter series, not sure when they come out but more than likely early 90s.

Got called a KGB agent by some old guy at a local Star Wars Night.

It’s affected me big time this year with my artwork plans, originally intended to make a start on new comic book ideas. 
Holding off on comic books this year 
However It’s given me more spare free time than ever to create my own Star Wars art. 

keeping busy building
Star Wars LEGO,
Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire N64.
watching The Clone Wars. Haven’t been going that well this year with my artwork. I’m a comic book, Character Sci Fi / Bug artist and. And this year has knocked me around heaps. Can’t do co-working where I usually work with other artists. Am working on new costumes this year x 3 so far. keeping in touch with other members. Still single but overall keeping myself occupied

I have not shut down at all, just some reduced hours (but on call for those times I am not at work), as I am a government employee.  Getting work done on finishing my basement, yard work, and work on my Imperial Officer.

Yay, I’m employed again and start my new job on Monday. You would think being Director Krennic would have come with a pretty hefty salary and I would not have needed another job, but noooo...

Going to review my costs, guys (I have to get the mic tips custom printed now, and don't have a cost on that yet) but believe it or not, the paint costs more than the components! Although the paint does go further than one pair of headsets...… ;)
 

Well, both my jobs are essential (beverage vender and grocery store stocker), so I'm still working 6 days a week, although with some reduced hours.  Got my clone trooper repairs done, painted up my costume tote to match my armor, and (after wanting this for several years) used what was left over from the stimulus check to finally order my line officer costume.

Here is a free downloadable STL file for an Ear Relief Strap that I made for the IOC.

please enjoy, share, print some for others but do not profit off it(charge for cost and shipping, but do not put on a resale site).
thank you!

Got a bit of prop work done.
 

A few more, these are from another 501st member not the professional photos yet, I’ll post those when in

Awesome photos! With a bit of luck, I'll be joining the Mimban Officer ranks by the end of the year.

I FINALLY got around to digitizing my Imperial Officer Tunic pattern!!!
I ran a contest where people who donated to a project getting protective gear to doctors got a vote for every dollar they donated and my officer tunic was the winner by a landside!
Free printable PDF here:

This was originally made to fit - Bust 40, Waist 32, Hip 40 and 5'7" and is made to fit a form with some curves.
If you use the pattern, please consider donating what you would have spent buying a pattern to an organization supporting the effort to fight COVID-19!

As above, if you're travelling overseas reach out to the local garrison.  Even if you can't troop with them they'll likely invite you along to meet and greet.
Take some merch to trade with you and you will always be extra welcome 

We don't have an issue with troopers coming over to troop with us but since we are in Australia it's a bit of a hike for most but all are welcome.

Always good to have a few drinks with fellow troopers even if they didn't bring their kit.

day 24 theres no food,no water, and ive watched the exorcist 18 times in a row and it keeps getting funnier every single time i see it!

Working on a mimban officer, all is gone to crap in Ohio.

I am still working at this stage, most of Australia hasn't locked down yet though, my job involves physical work and limited contact with others so as long as my co-workers and myself are safe and don't come in contact with anyone infected we hopefully won't shut-down.
Have heard of others who have lost their livelihood due to most outdoor sporting and entertainment venues barring spectators.
