The 501st photo shoot is on Saturday 8th not Friday 7th 

It's to soon to book hotel rooms. I tried, was able to put in the dates, choose my room only to then be told: NO ROOMS ARE AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.
Based on what I am finding on line the maximum time frame for booking a room is 1 year from the date of your event.

Very Interested in doing one of them - what ever name is decided upon
 

You can buy Disney tix as soon as they release the august dates. You can then make reservations for the droid workshop, Savis, and Olgas 90 days before you plan on going.

July 2000 I first met (well, was arrested by) the UK Garrison who had a couple of months earlier joined the 501st officially. Yes, I wanted to be a stormtrooper! I did nothing about this until May 2005 when I was also at the ROTS Premiere, probably stood next to Dave! So of course, what did I do... I promptly formed the Rebel Legion UK Base hehe! Costuming, charity and community to fill the then rebel void there was. That was my passion to join, both then and now.
 
The circle was however completed in 2011 when I cleared my TK. I guess that was a long build time...! Still love both Legion's
 

 
 

May 16th 2005 arrived in London to see all six films back to back finishing with the premiere of Revenge of the Sith.
Was meet by 20+ Stormtroopers from the UKG stood outside the cinema.
Knew then I wanted to become one , spoke with a few of the crew and within a few weeks had joined the forum and had all my armour on order.
Hadn't heard of the UKG or 501st until that day , but had seen people in costume at various events before but had no idea they were part of a worldwide organisation.
That day changed my life for the better and 14 years on still love going out in a costume and putting smiles on faces of all ages.
 

They kinda hid it: https://www.starwarscelebration.com/About/Travel/
 
The block opened one hour after tickets did, so no idea if there's any of those currently available, but people will cancel over time as things come up.  The Castle is a good backup in general, as is the Candy Cane.  

I think the Castle will be the de facto secondary Legion hotel. I know of at least 15-20 staying there at some point.

I know Castle Inn and Suites and Candy Cane Inn are both booking right now. They are both a ten min walk to the CC

Great work everyone!!

Never to soon to start planning, I’ve missed the last two Celebrations so promised myself I would be attending the next one regardless of where and when . I think like many trying to combine this Celebration with a trip to galaxy edge would be awesome
Just waiting on the dates to get the ball rolling 

I can but with respect I would rather speak to Jeff first.

So, I adjusted the scope position on my own blaster, then took a good HD image and cropped out the background.
 
Here's the final draft proposals (unless I missed something):
 
 

Holster, Version Four
Made of black leather or leather-like material.  
OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
Holster is made of leather. Holster is worn on the right-hand side. Holster is affixed via a single loop over the belt. OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):
Holster matches reference images.  
 

SE-14R Light Repeating Blaster
The barrel detailing is evident with the cocking lever and slider in place. The ejection port is also evident. The scope mount looks similar to the magazine but smaller in size. The scope does not protrude past the blaster body.  
Thoughts everyone? 

Hello all!
 
Jeff advised to stick a thread up regarding a proposed change to the Imperial Navy Trooper: Dress Uniform CRL so as to get some eyeballs on it.
 
Currently, the CRL only lists holsters for Version One (ANH) and Version Two (ESB):

 
My proposal is to add another holster entry below "Holster, Versions One and Two" and above "DH-17 blaster", which would look like the following:
 
Image (example):

Holster, Version Four
Made of black leather or leather-like material.  
OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
Holster is made of leather. Holster is worn on the right-hand side of the belt. Holster is affixed via a single solid loop over the belt. No buttons/snaps/rivets/screws are used. Joining edges are stitched only. OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):
Holster is made from a single piece of continuous leather. Holsters made from 2 or more joined pieces are not acceptable. The outer surface of the holster is smooth black with a subdued shine. The inside of the holster is a raw black leather texture.  
 
 
Image credit to @ID6187. I just removed the background in Photoshop and rotated it to match the CRL style.
Myself and BJ both (among others I believe) have Philo's holsters and they're dead on to the reference images:
