Tokyo Fire Department
The Tokyo Fire Department try to recruit me as somebody tipped them that Stormtrooper armor is fire proof. The truth is that the armor is not even Ewok stick proof.
Besides - I prefer working for my sith lord continuing to recruit new stormtroopers for the Empire...
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

I doubt it. The armor isn't particularly flattering and their faces are covered by the helmet. :(

I hear that the Tokyo Fire Department has one of the most awesome equipment in the world. They have intense training, water cannons and even an ambulance that transforms into a small clinic(?)! I watched them in action on a documentary in Discovery Channel sometime ago~
unemployed machinist.. yeah
Yet, from my understanding of some japanese fire departments.. Not the Tokyo not sure about them.. but some in other parts of the country. If your house does catch on fire, you might as well kiss it goodbye. House fires are rarely put out before it burns the structure completely down. Odd that ne?
Student
just depends on how old your house is. but many new houses aren't that great either because of their lack of heavy brick work

Do recall, though, that Japanese houses aren't built to last - they're *designed* to have a maximum lifespan of about 50-60 years. And then there's also the paper doors.
Those...kind of burn easily. ^^;
unemployed machinist.. yeah
Just, sorta doesn't make sense from my american perspective.. if your going to build something.. build it be the best if possibly can be.. and the strongest it can be. but, a friend of mine basically laid it out for me.. and he lives over in japan. that all the house fires in that particular town.. almost never get put out.. A lot to do with no one wanting to take responsibility.

Yes, I agree too ...
I think an excellent proposal!
unemployed machinist.. yeah
Recruiting good. Ewok sticks bad..
I see the empire doesn't skimp on proper undergarments for the storm stormtrooper armour.
Under armour is great stuff. I use under armour for when I go hunting and while I wear my figure skating pants. Keeps ya warm and also wicks away the heat if its hot. Gotta love it!

Shoubu Pantsu desu ka?
unemployed machinist.. yeah
Skating pants.. I figure skate.. Haven't done it in a while, mostly cause I can't get ice time. But, basically the pants are a very light stretchy material. which is great if your figure skating.. allows you to do a lot of the things you gotta do on the ice. but.. its not great for wamrth at all. so, under armour comes in real handy.

Under Armour?
Wow....
Where did Lord Vader come into that kind of money to be able to afford UnderArmour for his troops?

I'm sure the Empire can come up with a FireProofTrooper one of these days... just don't let any light tap on the head hit them or they're done for! It's so damn inconvenient :P
