Opinions needed on costume

New Hunter
I'm new to the world of Fett but I've been lurking on the boards for some time now. I came across a deal for an almost complete costume from a fellow 501st member but lacking any knowledge I was going to see what you guys think of it and how much work it appears needs to be done.

I can see that the spats on the bottom of the flight suit needs to be a Velcro strap for the ESB version, which the gauntlets are, and that the cape will need to be reworked but overall, how does it look to your trained eyes? The seller did not know the maker of the pieces since he bought it used over 4 years ago. Said it appears the armor is fiberglass. I figure I would need a new flight suit regardless since I have doubts the one provided would fit my frame and maybe a replacement of the vest. Thank for any input guys.
 
Looks a lot like star fortress...are some other shady prop builder..I know cus I bought something close to that cost a lot to start over...buy at ur own risk..
 
Thanks for the heads up. I took a look after you said that and it does appear to be one in the same. Following your advice and passing, not to mention that most would not fit me anyway.
 
There are no shortcuts.

Once in a blue moon you'll get a good deal, but definately no shortcuts to a quality Fett. Keep an eye on the cargo hold act fast but with Haste. Dont jump on something you dont have any idea about. Ask questions but if its any of the Major players the person selling will name the maker and all. If they dont know who its made by and it looks shotty potentially it is shotty. You can always PM myself or TX Fett(he knows way more then me) but we're always around the forum.
 
Tough question, well depends on what you do for stuff, blasters for jango can be pricey...but if you have to have stuff painted Boba can be pricer then the Jango...I paint so I dont have that issue.
 
If you have the skill, time and patience to do it yourself, you'll be happier with your finished fett in the end. Something you made and can be proud of.
