    My Life-Sized 1978 Darth Vader Kenner Action Figure Project

    The cape really completes the look! Agree that the urge to paint the saber red is strong, but accuracy was the better decision. Great work!

    Ord Mantell's PP2 Build

    For me, the PP2 look is all about the mannequin underneath. Yours is appropriately thin and lanky and looks awesome. I lucked out when I did mine as I had purchased a female mannequin for something else that I didn't use and was able to leverage the lower half of that with a male upper that...

    First build Ever Update and first timer questions

    Have to agree with the grommet method for trooping. My Fetts all just stand around my basement all day so I ended up going with the magnet method. It works really well and makes it easy to tweak the placement of each plate but if you were trooping, they'd slide, shift and fall off.

    Fettronics - Closed

    I have nine (YES NINE) Boba Fett chest displays and a Han in Carbonite kit from him. Top shelf components , top shelf service. I'm done with building (for now) but still sad to see this. Amazing components.

    First build Ever Update and first timer questions

    Strapping is pretty easy to come by on amazon and I'm sure there's threads out there with the exact stuff to get. I just got whatever others on an ESB build got and made it work for both the knees and cod. As far as velcro, are you looking for armor attachment, because if so, I'd go with some...

    Anyone done (or doing) an Arena Boba Fett (All Black)?

    I'll do my best to find them. Gloves (Man of War dyed Black) Flight suit (Man of War dyed Black) - this is currently not in stock but he does runs fairly often. Any white flight suit dyed black would work though. Boots (Man of War dyed Black) - This is on preorder right now so grab a pair as...

    Anyone done (or doing) an Arena Boba Fett (All Black)?

    The flight suit itself was a Man of War two piece suit that I dyed black. The flight suit takes dye amazingly well. For the flack vest I ended up ordering from Krypton Top on Etsy and ordering black specifically. The material of the vest didn't dye as well as the flight suit, but I later...

    My Life-Sized 1978 Darth Vader Kenner Action Figure Project

    I like the satin black all over idea. If you do it and don't see enough contrast, you can always hit those areas you mentioned with a gloss clear coat or gloss black.

    That cape is going to be incredible! If you don't wear it before putting it on Vader, are you even a fan? :)

    My Four (or Five) Life Size Boba Fett Builds during the Pandemic

    Yeah, if I had any wall space at all left in the basement, I'd probably use them to do some backlit death star walls. The panel isn't a little shy of 3 feet by six feet and is about a 1/4 inch thick. It was perfect for the flooring for sure.
