  • it's time to head to another convention (C2E2!) and you know what that means .... I've got travel anxiety!! hopefully this video will give you a few tips and tricks when packing your costumes for travel (specifically airline travel) and will help you better understand how I pack up my costumes and armored cosplays to ease that anxiety just a touch :)
    I can confirm that the 40 gallon tote was charged as a checked bag w/no overweight bag fees!

    I am in the early stages of making my post imperial mandalorian costume, with the intention of trooping at Celebration Japan in 2025. Thanks for the video, it really helped me visualize how i will pack my kit.

    How are you able to travel with the 2 prop pistols? I thought you aren't allowed to travel with them via airlines? Especially through checked bag.

    If they are PLA don't they melt when you travel around in hot places ?

      I’m sure it’s possible but i would be more worried leaving it in a hot car than flying with it.

    When i tried to carry my spartan armor to Australia, my chest armor+2 leg armor melted, my rear armor+waist armor cracked into pieces😂
    I guess 3D printed armor is afraid of heat😢

    10:45 - I wouldn't use the term "3D printed" if you have prop firearms in there. Way too easy to be misinterpreted as "3D printed guns".
