which was likely the case. 
47.94% of those are made up on the spot.
This George-Approved Sandtrooper is 100% awesome:

Ummmm . . . Not True at all. I've been converting Marmit Trooper kits for several years now. I've been using more poseable/slimmer bodies from Dragon, DID, etc. Others have been able to use bodies from various companies to replace the stock Marmit one as well.
Proof:
These were made using bodies/figures from Dragon
These pics show that the scale is comparable to Sideshow's Figures
Those are awesome work, TK0083! 
Always loved the Marmits. Hope the Sideshows turn out that nice.

I think I am too fat.
The 501'st does not discriminate based on Body size...

Nice work TK0083. I based on my experience by using Dragon early "Adam" body on my Marmit Strom and Sand 10 years ago. Then I changed body of HOT Toys for a more build-up 6 years ago. You sure have more experience then I am 
Glad to see 501st members surfaced in this thread. The deployment standard for 501st MEPD has up-grade several times. Now, once get deployed means owning a movie accurate helmet, field backpack...etc. However, old deployed members of MEPD are still valid and are not affected by the latest up-grade standard. Not to mention that 501st don't have rules by forcing members by getting deployed. Its a choice by yourself of how good you want to achieve for your costume, same norm just like freaks here for 12" figure. TK0083 for example had well-proved his choice for 12" figure.
Its me in my armor. I am 6 feet 3 inches tall in armor (3 inches lift-up by boots) and I am "not fat". Yes, its a cruel fact that your body size will definitly affect movie accuracy in armor but as mentioned above, we the 501st, matter on higher goals and warm welcome those that consider "size doen't matter".
Below is my TD helmet modified from MR LE ANH helmet (Hero version but base on a Stunt mold)-

Really cool armors guys!!
Hey Marc...um, Lord Vader I mean.
I personally like the white pauldron on this figure - too many oranges running around imo. I personally wear black at my 501st troops:
The bad thing is that we wont have this awesome figure in our hands till later in the year, maybe 3rd quarter (I hope I'm wrong and its sooner). I hate having to wait so long.
Where'd that pic come from? That's new.
Looks like the header image to the PPO email reminder that they usually send out a day or two before the PPO to remind people to be signed up for the newsletter to be eligible and all that.
