Thanks. I'm guessing those are parade gloves too, am I right? If I dyed some white gloves could I make them that light colored?

Yes, I believe all the gloves used for Fett were parade/dress gloves. And you could absolutely dye a pair of white gloves to get the same effect, because after all, I believe that is how the real pair were made.

Ok, but the MoM gloves dont look like parade gloves to me, any ideas on what those were made from? I want to eventually make both pairs.

Another thing, I know this isnt the helmet section, but why is the ESB helmet on the MoM ROTJ suit (im goin by the pics on the reference site). Some of the pics also show the ROTJ helmet though.

Um, exactly what do you think they look like then? I have seen no evidence to the contrary that they are a type of dress/parade glove.
The ESB gloves are the Jedi gloves and are the prepro gloves-- same glove different painting/dyeing. Again, I believe the ROTJ are only slightly lighter in color than the ESB's due to washing and/or harsh conditions on set in the desert.
As for the helmet situation, you are seeing two different exhibits: one is the Magic of Myth (MoM) and the other is the Art of Star Wars (AoSW). The MoM suit has the Jedi helmet and Jedi suit. The AoSW has the Empire helmet and a Jedi suit that was also used for the Second Edition scenes.

I wasnt saying they aren't parade gloves, I'm saying they just didnt look like the same material as the others. And I wasnt talking about the gloves used in ROTJ, I was talking about the light light gray gloves seen in the exhibit pics.

All indications are that the MoM exhibit gloves and the RotJ gloves are one and the same, only faded. More than likely they have been washed a time or two and the color has faded, not to mention what the direct sunlight of the Tunisan desert may have done to them.

The difference might be due to the fact that the gloves are on a maniquin instead of an actual person, so the gloves in the ref pics from the exhibit might seem a little baggy, while as pics from the movie might make the gloves look tighter because they are filled with hand

I'd post pics of the gloves except I have no idea how.

There are essentially only two types of Boba gloves: the brown Pre-production gloves with the patches on the backs of them and the gray ESB/RotJ gloves with white cloth accents sewn to them. The only difference between the ESB and RotJ gloves is that the RotJ gloves are a shade or two lighter than the ESB pair. The gloves used in both the MoM and AoSW exhibits are presumably the same pair, the same ones used in the movie.
If you have a picture of something other than what I just described, email it to me and I'll post it.

Yeah, you are probably right about the ROTJ gloves but I was just lookin at a pic of the 1st prepro suit (the one w/the eyes painted on the helmet) and it looks like hes got slightly different color gloves than the other prepro suit. Maybe it just looks that way in this certain pic but I dunno.

Sure. I think you've peaked everyone's curiosity with just what gloves you're talking about. Send it to me at caudillppd@peoplepc.com
Just to clarify this, no version of the brown Pre-production gloves were used in any of the movies, just the gray ones in one shade or another.

Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids.
If it is a Pre-pro picture that you are using for reference, than Fettcicle is the man to see as he is one of the few who has a completed version of that particular costume.

I know the prepro gloves werent used in the movies, I've been an insane Boba Fett fan for many a year and I would have noticed.lol
The light grey gloves I've been speaking of are the ROTJ gloves seen in MoM that seem to be lighter than the movie version. People have pointed out to me that they are probably the same gloves, just faded.
I'm not making the brown gloves for my suit
(not yet anyway) but you said if I've seen Fett wearing any other gloves to let you know. They look darker to me but like I said, it could be this certain pic.

Here's the pic AOD was referring to. It is the Pre-Pre-Production suit.

The glove color from that PrePro suit does look slightly darker than the brown on the PrePro suit we are accustomed to seeing, PrePro 2. However, it again can be contributed to different painting/washing. Also note that picture is taken outside in daylight.You can even clearly see the ab plate is a different color than the upper armor.

off topic but i think i stumbled onto something...the dent pattern on those knees look exactly like the ESB pattern.the right knee has one dent near the taper and one on the inside top.the left has a split at the bottom of the taper and another dent on the inside.could they have been repainted and used for the ESB suit?i have been looking for clear pics of the dent pattern but all the ESB pics are so grainy.in this pic they look very clear.
