TrooperPX Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) This CRL has been updated (08/22/2012). GML's will have a six month grace period to approve members under the former CRL, to accommodate those with builds in progress. CRL Update - ANH Tusken Bantha Rider Tab Modified and/or Removed Changes and/or Additions The Bantha Rider is a "wear option" for the ANH Tusken. It is the same costume, with the bandoliers worn over the outer robe (the waist sash is logically assumed to still be over the inner robe, inside/underneath the outer robe). Therefore it will remain a "Version Two" tab in the ANH Tusken Raider CRL. Tusken Raider Version Two Model DZ-8559 DZ 12109, Photo by M.Cullen J.Lim S.Ofner Hawk Worley Description: Tusken Raider Prefix: DZ Detachment: Krayt Clan Context: Episode IV: A New Hope Fearsome desert savages inhabiting the rocky Jundland Wastes, Tusken Raiders are the foremost reason Tatooine colonists do not wander far from their isolated communities. Extremely territorial and xenophobic, Tusken Raiders will attack with very little provocation. They show no allegiance to even their native world-mates, as these nomads have attacked Jawa scouting parties on occasion. Covered from head-to-foot in tattered rags and robes, Tusken Raiders — or Sand People as they are also known -- brandish a deadly bladed club known as a gaderffii. They also carry projectile rifles with which to shoot at passing vehicles. In this period, both male and female Tuskens dress identically. Please note that this costume is also eligible for membership in The Rebel Legion, although adjustments may need to be made for RL approval. This Visual Guide has been reviewed by the detachment staff and the LMO team and is certified for use as a minimum approval guideline for GMLs. GMLs are free to approve this costume type. This document is not intended to be a detailed how-to on costume construction; rather a visual guide to be used for 501st costume approval. Details on construction may be found on the respective costume detachment web forum. GMLs uncertain about an aspect of submitted costume shall post questions in the appropriate DL/GML peer review section of the Legion forum. Measurements given in this document are intended to be approximate and generalized; not criteria for approval. Requirements for all 501st costumes are proportional to the wearer in scale, fit and size. Text descriptions are only one part of the guideline. GML’s and costumers must consider both text and pictures (CRL and Reference) when reviewing the costume. Required Costume Components The following costume components are present and appear as described below.

Leather or simulated leather is used for the "snout" wrapping. Snout wrapping must be accurate to the references. Tucked mouth area is not uniformly "pleated" and must be accurate to the references. Mask has nine metal or simulated metal detail pieces: Silver in color. Two (2) eye stalks. Eye stalks taper toward the front with two slots cut into the underside of each piece.

The sides may be sewn up to approximately 12" (35cm) from the wrist, with two medium-sized hook-and-eye or snap closures, the first at the wrist with the second half way down the opening, to keep the robe sleeve closed. There are no seams at the shoulders, but a single seam up the middle of the back is acceptable to make a wide enough piece of fabric.
