  1. Certainly. The CRL team discussed allowing either configuration - blue up or red up.

    The discussion boils down to;

    In favor was that it's seen both ways, even though one way has to be a coloring error.

    Against is that since R1 came out, we have an official way to wear a Director's rank bar.

    At this point, we're getting to an up or down vote between the CRL team and Staff members.

    I expect to have either a "It stays as is" which will end the discussion, or a "the Team decided it can be changed". If the team decides it can be changed, I'll present that to the Detachment for a 5 day comment period.

    I hope that is transparent, and that all parties will abide by the process. :)

    Unfortunately, I have never been someone who off the shelf sizes fit. I am kicking myself now for not ordering this around Christmas when they had their old site working. I will probably just add both the $30 color change and the $50 dollar 501st fee with the same measurements filled in on both add ons. Hopefully that will make it a pretty close fit on arrival. I am not in a super hurry so I might wait a bit and see if a sale pops up in the next month or two. Thanks for the help! 

    Before paying both fees, email their support and ask. Can't hurt, might help!

    Now here is a real kicker. My wife's Hessen boots came in and the quality of leather is much nicer. WTF? Got her a pair of male sz 6 boots.

    If my boots had come in looking and feeling this nice I would of said yes this is a nice boot.

    Monday I will be contacting Hessen about this and perhaps get a reason why.

    Please do, and share what they say.  As I'm sure you noticed, Hessen is one of - if not THE - premier boot suppliers.

    You're experience is so far from the norm, that it took many of us off guard.

    Best of luck,

    I wish the CRL saw it that way, because I agree. When I looked at the L3 boots I had to go digging through images, because until that moment I had never even heard of shin armor or thought of them as such. I just thought that's how the boots were animated (and still do).

    We can add that to our CRL Review list come March.

    I agree,  you can make some really convincing leather with EVA foam.  Though I was thinking,  the armor on characters in Rebels seems a bit "flexible".  If you watch Agent Kallus or Sabine, you will see their armor stretch and shrink to allow movement that would be otherwise prohibited by their armor.  It would be interesting to replicate that with EVA foam.

    For the Officers in Rebels, I always took the "armor" on their shins to just be how they decided to animate regular officer boots rather than armor like Kallus or Sabine wear.
