Hello group. I am standing at the edge of this rabbit hole about to find out how deep it goes.
I am 40ish and in a place now that I can afford to acquire a Fett suit. Something, like you all, I have always wanted. I have no skill at modeling, molding, or sewing so building my own is out if the question. I don't have " deep pockets" but can afford a full commission suit with enough time to save. I do plan on participating in the 501st with the suit so I need something of high quality.
The pricing I am getting from the reputable producers on this site is in the neighborhood of $7,000 to $8,000. Is the about right to you all? I do understand that these are works of art and appreciate that. That is just more than I had anticipated.
Does anyone know of anyone or have themselves a used ESB suit? Is going that route something the group would warn against? Now I am not referring to going on Craigslist or eBay but rather would deal with someone on these forums and someone who I can deal with face to face.
Thanks in advance for all your help and advice.
