All right!
I know Boba Fett builds are all around and I am sure I am not breaking any new ground with this one but I want to put this build up here and on the RPF to make use of the wide array of knowledge out there. I know I will miss things and images and I hope you folks can catch me before I fall too far!
I have attached the photos of the pile of stuff I have gathered so far.
JetPack - MOW
Gauntlets - MOW
Boots - MOW
Back - Don't remember?
Chest/Cod/Shoulders - swprops (not the greatest but not the worst)
Shin tools - eBay
Pistol/holster - eBay
Chest numerals - esb sequence - UK seller
Jumpsuit - MOW
ESB Vest - MOW
Knees - Vacuum formed - eBay
Helmet - ?? (got it for $60 and now I am pretty sure it is a recast POS)
I consider this to be my "practice" helmet for the ESB paint scheme
EE-3 Blaster - Webley Flare Gun cast - not much else right now
Cape - eBay
The goal would be to make this a wearable, 501st approved costume. I know it will take a while and I will end up replacing a number of pieces as I upgrade. Wish me luck and I will ask more than a few questions!
Question #1
I have to dye the MOW jumpsuit and I am leaning towards the RIT royal blue but I am not positive. What have any of you used for for dye colors for ESB?

Just a quick additional note.
I thought I would show the two previous Boba Fett's I built.
These were done in 1998 and 2000. They were ok for the material I had at the time (sintra) and the fact there were done on the living room floor of my apartment.
I am still rather proud of the sintra jetpack on the ROTJ second suit. I did all the patterns and built it from only looking at the photos available at the time.
