Advice needed

[noiamyourmother]

Hi! I’m so new here and impressed with how much you all know and the amazing things you’ve created! I’m not even sure if this is the place to ask this but I am looking for a ready to buy Boba Fett for my son who is a graduating film major and does film editing. He and I are huge Star Wars fans and his favorite character is Boba Fett. I’m not sure where to find an inclusive list of ready to sell full Boba Fetts on here and if there are none available now, how I choose from the few that are available out there like on eBay. I know there are a few super overpriced sideshow ones available but only about 4 that I’ve seen on eBay and I have no idea how to tell which are good, what to look for, what to stay away from, etc. Is it more desirable to have one that you can wear or only display? I’ve seen comments that it’s a hassle to take it apart to wear and put back so maybe display is the priority? How important is the mannequin or form beneath the costume? Pretty important I’d think. And I’d think you’d want one that had been modified to be in a cool position especially the arms? Would anyone be willing to give me some advice on the ones that are readily available out there or is that not appropriate for this forum? Sorry! Just a mom looking for an over the top graduation present that my son will love! Btw he is huge on detail and accuracy and knows his Star Wars! Thank you so much for any advice!

Aside from checking out the Cargo Hold here to see if anyone is selling their personal suit there isn't really a one stop shop for a complete kit ready to go. Plenty of us sell parts, or most of the parts, and take commissions but they generally aren't ready to ship. All made to order.

I offer armor, gauntlets, and shin tools as well as painting services for all those plus helmets and jetpacks. I can do any of the versions. My wait list isn't too terribly long right now either. Check out my work here: Cosplay and Prop Portfolio

Soft parts I'd recommend Arkady, Clothears, or Jedi's Closet.
Delta13Mike is always a solid choice for the ammo belt.
BobaMaker has a great side arm and holster if you go ESB.
Can't go wrong with Man of War boots if he has any left.

Rule #1: stay away from eBay.

Here is a ROTJ SE complete suit available for sale here on TDH.
