Clone Trooper Detachment
Both the Purge Trooper - Commander

and Coruscant Guard (Phase II) — Heavy Trooper
https://databank.501st.com/databank/Cos ... 2_CG_Heavy
are both completed and ready for independent Garrison Membership Liaison approval.
To backtrack - CRLs that are not in place, but not yet greenlit are still approval-able costumes, but the GML may need to work with the Legion level Membership team to finalize review of the costume.
Bounty Hunters Guild
And then lastly, our Bounty Hunters Guild finalized the amazing Embo from Star Wars:The Clone Wars CRL

Definitely go check out the photo of that in the link in our shownotes. We had a question during the live Q&A about rare costumes, and I'd say that Embo is likely on that short list of seldom seen costumes.
As always, you can check out links to our new CRLs in our shownotes.
Thanks, again, to the Legion Membership Team for these updates.

Catching up with our HMs - Nicky
This episode for our tiny segment on catching up on our Honorary Members, we wanted to give a shout out to Simon Pegg for highlighting his 501st Legion (although he called us Battalion - must have picked that up from JJ) name badge during a video interview he did recently with BBC Radio. Check out the link to the article on Fantha Tracks in our shownotes to watch the clip.

And, then of course just a little bit later on this episode we'll be catching up with Honorary and Full Legion Member Steve Sansweet from Rancho Obi-Wan!
