Building Jango Fett?!?

Yes. I've decided to do a Jango Fett. For many reasons...but, this one suffices: Cuz I want to! :cheers But, it's also because I've the base for it already. Roughly four years ago, I did a custom Mandalorian... the colors were black, silver and a burgundy/red. Which coincedently,became the colors that Jango Fett wore in Open Seasons # 3. Having seen all the fun at DCon that TDH- Boba's and Jango's were having, I had to join them. As most of you know, I've spent almost as long as SpideyFett in building a dialed-in uber accurant ESB Boba Fett. It's almost done. Now that I'm in my own place, you'd think I'd have time to finally attach everything and at long last Ta-Dah, Boba Fett! Well, not yet it appears. My Fett Armor and JP is in the attic at my to-be ex's, access is somewhat limited...:facepalm

So, I was thinking as I looked at Jango Fett pics from DCon...wait a minute! I've most of that!! A quick list of what I had already:

1) Jango black flightsuit from BKBT
2) Jango Armor and black leather vest from Shunned
3) Red/Burgundy gauntlets ready (some tweaks needed, but)
4) Jango helmet in OP#3 colors sitting lonely...
5) Girth Belt- hard to tell what color it is in the comic. Thought about getting a Jango belt, but wasn't able to yet, so will go with the burgundy ROTJ mohair extra girth belt I already have.

So, I set about w/ a shopping list, and over the span of a weekend, scored the following:
Pair of MR Jango Westars (thanks Phantom Fett!)
Jango holsters and ammo belt (thanks Cruzer!!!)
Getting the red cape he wears as well...

Yes, I know I don't have the Jet Pack...as of yet...
The helmet is a nice one, it's one that Anthrax did years ago. Sure, it could be a touch bigger, but...

Looking forward to trooping this Halloween as a Fett...finally!!!8) 8)
