I took the plunge and bought it now let's see how it fits

I went with MC for my Veers armour.....message me if you need more details for sure. I've always wanted the AT AT Commander and in fact was the very reason I got my OD line officer in the first place.
 
Best of luck!
 
Edit, just PMd you the details

There is a tutorial on how to make them. If you can't find anything, perhaps you could give making them a shot?

Have a look here, if you do not want to build them by yourself:

You could use the clips from less accurate dosimeters
 
This would need a little mode to make it more accurate

These are right, and you get a charger

"I'm the hardiest soldier of the dark side, don't mess with Empire!"

On my concern I like to play with the public, and offer them another point of view...
"Oh Alderaan ? yes I remember. The Empire just wanted to help the mining underground exploitation. to use easily the natural ressource, and so on... But a jedi entered the station and created a power misfunction...
we just wanted to help...
by the way, it's easier now..."

My favorite topic is when someone asks me if I'm a bad guy, to which I reply, "Depends on your point of view... The Empire is the legitimate government in the galaxy so the rebels are by default the bad guys." I usually get "Haven't you ever seen Star Wars? The Empire is bad"... I love just messing with people.

I generally try to tackle the rebel propaganda that is out there. 
 
I remind them that the Emperor was elected chancellor and that when he declared himself emperor it was received with thunderous applause.
I remind them that nobody elected the Jedi and that they used their powers for haunting and mind control.
If they argue with me I ask them if they sided with the separatists, count Dooku and General Grevious.
 
At the end I remind them that there is only one detail worth remembering about the Jedi "that they are ALL DEAD.  EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM".  So you see, those people out there can't possibly be jedi. 

John Mollo tried to bring order to the rank system in the Empire Strikes Back.  There was a method to his madness with A New Hope, but it wasn't applied evenly due to costume troubles.  Some people had to put on the costume that fit them instead of the one that was intended for them.  That is why Motti wears a green uniform, when he was intended for another uniform.  Empire would be different.  There we would get a revamped rank system different from A New Hope that would make sense.
 
Called by name we KNOW what some ranks are from Empire: Admiral, General, Captain, Lieutenant.  And that is all we have.
 
Living in the real world we know that there are other ranks to be found and we try to fill them in... but they are not canon because they are only ever will be conjecture.  
 
Mollo was and IS the most definitive authority on European military fashions of the past 500 years.  He was taken off of Star Wars and didn't participate in Return of the Jedi.  In that movie people either didn't wear ranks (for the black uniformed officers) or they wore the rank of a captain (for the green uniforms).  Jejerrod and Piett are the only two officers that have names.  Jejerrod is called "commander", though novels and other sources list him as a moff.  The reason why there is no differentiation in rank is that no one cared... sadly.  The man who cared was not on the project.  

5 years after Jedi, West End Games tried to make sense of the Imperial Ranks from Empire with the Imperial Source Book.  The included conjecture ranks like "Colonel" and "Commander" and "Major".  But none of that is canon.

well I have 2 "TK guinea pigs" (one ... didn´t have much of a choice... and used a ...formulation that leaves room for quite some interpretation towards me - and one volunteered... XD) so I´m all in for Option 2 but sure - I´d love to see that pop up on the FISD forums

I suspect you might need to take a poll on it with the TKs.....options are, shall we call it ;
 
1. A 'Trooping' event
2. A 'Being Bossed Around' event 
 
   
 
Whatever you do, dont post the options at the Sith Lords Detachment though, they will only have one option available in the poll for us officers ;
 
1. A 'Choking' event 
 

"Where are you taking this...thing?"
 
"She'll die before she'll tell you anything."
 
Now Im just getting into straight quotes...maybe I'll have to improvise....  

At Comic-Con, there were some kiddos dressed as Vader. When I offered to take a picture at the booth for the whole family, they often look surprised. I reply, "Anything for Lord Vader."

Played with some new ones during my last troop. If they take out picture, "Excuse me, is that scanning device approved by the Empire?"
@thederek had some good ones all night long! Lol A favorite was, "Have you seen any rebels or Jedi in this sector?"

They don´t grow on trees!

The Emperor demands you make contact with him

My lord, we have them

When trooping I try to become the character to bring the costume to life.
As an Imperial Officer... what are your favourite lines or quotes?

Bounty hunters. We don't need that scum.

If there is a kid dressed like a rebel, especially Lukes and pilots, I always shake my fist at them and growl "Stop blowing up Deathstars! They're EXPENSIVE! Now we have to build ANOTHER ONE!"

Oh my goodness these are all fantastic; keep 'em coming!  Can't wait to get approved and start trooping! :grin:

"continue with the operation you may fire when ready" Tarkin's Line

One of the main attractions of the officer costume is being able to say "you Rebel scum!" with real conviction
