First off I would like to thank anyone in advance that reads my posts and responds.
This year I have decided to pursue a Boba Fett costume. I would like this to be as close to movie accurate as possible (Boba Fett ESB). I am not sure why but I really prefer the ESB version opposed to ROTJ. That said, when looking for parts to start my journey (wow they are expensive) I have narrowed it down to a few options. At first it all seemed overwhelming but now it’s just fun and I got a bug. I found these listings on Ebay and I wanted to get your opinions on them. They seem like they are a really good deal but because looks can be deceiving I wanted to get a few other eyes on these just to help me make the decision. Bobamaker and FettPride have crazy quality as far as their molds go so I was wondering, am I better off forking over high amounts of cash on a top quality product or could I just take my time to prep these items (clean, trim, primer, etc) They really are rough around the edges literally and figuratively. Being new to this, assuming this is obviously how all gauntlets looking fresh off the press do I need to just clean and sand them to get the nice clean flats and lines of a Fett Pride quality piece? Or are these just crap?
I do not want to buy something, put effort into it, find I don’t like it and go back to the drawing board. I really don’t want to regret my first purchase. Any help or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
In Short:
Do these molds look good for the price or am I getting what I am paying for? With a little bit of love are these a good deal?
Helmet and Gauntlet Set
Total Price: $196.00
