If I could fit into it, I'd seriously try to scrape together the dough. This
very well put-together Biker Scout armor set is currently selling for $800 shipped.

Somebody won this thing tonight. I put in a bid, but hopefully I didn't win (I'm torn- I totally can't afford this or fit into it but it looks so
good). Either way, the price went significantly lower so it's sold to somebody.

Ha, seriously, I was just telling that to a few people at work. My health and appearance weren't a good enough reason- it took a Star Wars costume to
get me motivated. There is no try...
I bought it for $600 shipped, which the jury's still out on whether I got a good deal or not. I think it'll stay out till I receive it and have Dale or others examine it. I've bought another item from the same seller so I asked him if I could wait till I got the first item before I sent payment. Happily he agreed. Man, this really changes my outlook on collecting and tells me that I need to put on the breaks like I haven't in years. |

Nice score. Hopefully you can get a hold of Dale so he can analyze it for you.

I think Dale might show up as well and he's got very accurate armor. And Sharon, I don't think I"m going to go nuts with costumes, but I always have wanted a Classic BSG Viper pilot costume. I remember seeing a pair of very attractive young ladies at a convention back in the 90s with perfect Viper pilot outfits. Good times, good times. |

Putting either costume together wouldn't be too expensive. Good for you, Campbell! New fun for your hobby. Don't feel too guilty, I think you got a good deal. http://www.OrlandoMobileTinting.com |

I feel better about the deal as well. The seller has given me more details so I'm getting excited. I also just received another item from him so I have more confidence. As a matter of fact, I'm seconds away
from Paypal-ing him now.

Aaron, that'd be great. I'm looking to compare armor and get critiques from everybody. My costume will be sent out Monday so I'm sure I'll
have it at the meeting.
And Sharon, I look forward to seeing how that pans out. I really like the Viper outfits from both eras. I've been trying to get some facsimile of the grey/black tank tops from the new BSG for Pin.

Exactly where did you get the parts Campbell? It was not easy finding my Jedi costume. Some of it I found on ebay but the rest I had to make.

There was a seller on the Rebelscum in the Props Classifieds- the link is in the first post.

FAIL!
I just got my money back with this message: Sorry to let you know. I am refunding your money. While i was packing it up I heard a crack and come to find out the helmet face sheild cracked down the side. I can't in good mind send this to you. Sorry.So it appears that the seller is extremely honest and a nice guy as he could have sent this and claimed it happened in the mail. It seems the adventure is over, I'm not getting a Scout Trooper costume. Wow, huge surprise. In a related story, I'm extremely glad to have not spent the money. This'll make mini-busts of Renz and SDCC Fett so much easier to buy. |

Well at least you tried Campbell. But that was nice of the guy to tell you and refund your money. When you buy the SDCC Fett can you post a pic of it? I want
to see it. Buying stuff on Star Wars here in Puerto Rico is like trying to find canned bread. Believe me.

Here's a link to the Gentle Giant thread. I posted a video to the new SDCC Boba
bust.
