Transportation of Boba suit?

[RistetToast]

Hello everyone!

My Bobamaker ROTJ suit is set for completion this month, which I am obviously really excited about!

The question I want to ask is not so much about building the costume, but more about what you guys recommend for transporting the parts safely? I believe I saw some sort of containers or boxes here about a year ago, but I cannot find that thread

Any recommendations?

I use a similar tote, but smaller as I have a smaller vehicle and want to transport multiple items.

Check out my video on storing and transporting the costume:

Great post! Is it OK for airplane travelling? I live in an island... So if want to use it outside...

If I were to stick mine on a plane I would cut foam inserts to insulate most of the pieces ( which I plan on doing anyway)

Husky or Stanley tote, which ever is on sale at the time. I have about 5 of them.

Thank you!

Though most places didn't ship any of the two to Denmark I did manage to find one on Amazon that did! What about the helmet though? I know there are helmet bags, and that Trooperbay and others sell some which fits Stormtroopers, but are there any special helmet bags for a Boba ROTJ helmet, or does the one from Trooperbay fit? Or do you guys carry the helmet in the tote as well?

I have fit my helmet in the tote for short travels and never had to go on a plane with it. Usually I just carry it in my hand or wear it as I am rolling the tote along.

With my Boba Fett I can fit the helmet in the tote, with Jango Fett I have to carry the helmet separate. Jango just has a ton of hard armor.

The trooperbay bags do hold the boba helmet. I carry one while rolling the tote.

I ordered the helmet bag from Trooperbay and ordered the Stanley from Amazon.de Thank you everyone! The packing tutorial you made could also come in handy

I use a Sportsman trunk and everything but the helmet fits in there very nicely. There is a video tutorial on here which explains how to pack your items into it to optimize the space. etc. It is a bit more smaller than a Husky or Stanley but I like the fact that I can fit it into my car with no problems.

I like the cut of your jib, sir

I use a 117L suitcase and a helmet bag from Wally Peters (look him up Facebook). I shared some packing suggestions here: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php?t=55230&p=714038&viewfull=1#post714038

I've yet to transport my suit, hell I haven't really started building much of it, BUT I bought the 37" Husky tote. I was running out of places to store everything I've collected thus far, hahaha!

The small Plano tote that Deathproof recommends is the way to go! Compact and looks great.
