I posted my original "hello" thread last summer (2011) sometime. At that point Boba was a ways off and I was just doing research. Well the time has come, I think, to start going forward with my attempt. I think I'm going to go with a ROTJ style Fett. Maybe Special Edition, if I can find more info on that suit.
Now I do have a couple of questions and some of them are no doubt noob type, lol.
First, besides the obvious Hasbro blaster repaints labeled as "accurate props", who/what should be avoided on the 'bay?
Second, I actually have in my collection a '96 Don Post Fett helmet. I bought if off the shelf at Target waaaaay back in the day. Is that helmet acceptable (with mods of course) and a good place to start, or would I be better off picking up something else?
Thanks guys!
I know it may be a bit unrealistic, but the end time I'm shooting for, when I hope to have something wearable and approvable, would be by (hopefully) any CVII.

I even sat my wife down and showed her the "what to expect to spend" post here, and she never blinked! She just turned to me and said "As long as it's a REAL Fett and not some "custom mando" thing."
