pardon my ignorance, but what’s 501st legion about?

Wow! You guys have a great studio! Post the group pictures up one day, okay? Boy, those costumes looked a-ma-sing! I loved the part where mb seemingly makes Darth Vader play “If I had one million” on his chest control panel. Great stuff!

I sense a second Singapore spoof of Star Wars with Hokkien script.
And it will be in video.
Mr Brown versus Darth Vader in a lightsabre duel.

Well, almost, the 501st is a dedicated Star Wars fanbase, with “outposts” in more than 20 countries, Singapore being one of them. Have a look at Wikipedia’s article:

Actually the 501st legion (in Star Wars) was an elite stormtrooper unit that was dubbed “Vader’s Fist”. They were quite feared, of course. And I’d like to see Mr. Brown versus Darth Vader! :) Start placing bets!

I’m supprised that we have Vador’s fist in Japan as well..
But somehow, their legs are a bit shorter than the ones who appeared in Mr.Browns studio :D

The clone troopers that followed Anakin into the Jedi Temple in Episode III and that in other Star Wars references were named after the currently 3300+ member-strong fan group which was founded in 1997. Find out more about the 501st Legion and members of the Singapore Outpost at www.501st.com and www.starwars.sg.

Thanks for the interest everyone. I was one of the stormtroopers that day. And yes, the Imaginary Friends Studios was super cool! Never seen so many toys (incl Star Wars ones) around an office. And it was a pleasure meeting Mr Brown and the guys!
Grand, if you’re still interested in getting the armor, you can contact me (TK4546) or our CO (TI5850) through here: http://www.501st.com/members/dsp_garrisonroster.cfm?garrisonId=42.
We’re always happy to assist any incoming Imperial troops. :)
Thanks.

is this video taken by HD Cam?
If it is than can you upload the video in HD format?
I want to see the hi-res video in HD 1920×1080.
