This would have all its pieces too so you wouldn’t have to mess around trying to get it to fit your outfits.  You would only have to work on pieces that you wanted to make custom, like holding a gun, ect.  I don’t know about you but if I am going to spend 2k for the real outfit what is a few dollars more and the most important part, there are no chemicals in a mannequin that are going to break down the uniform over time.  When you make shift something you always have issues with chemicals breaking down the fabric.  I have worked with NASA on getting mannequins for their space suits and it really does matter. I just wanted to send a post on here to give everyone a source if they are in need of a full mannequin or mannequin parts for your movie memorabilia.  As I said before, you did an amazing job on putting your mannequin together, but not everyone has the time to dedicate to it and there is a lot of trail and error if you are to really make it work and look real. <a href="http://www.lvmannequins.com/" target="_blank">www.lvmannequins.com</a> is the site if anyone is interested. Thanks</blockquote>
