I received the Anovos standard line Han Bespin outfit today. It wasn't a costume I ever cared to own but, at the price Anovos offered it the other day, I figured I'd be less precious about wearing it out (on Halloween...not everyday). All I can say is WOW! Really well done! The quality is fantastic and the look is incredible. I was a little nervous the other day when someone posted comparison pics and it seemed the standard line jacket looked brown. That is not the case. I'm very happy I bought this!

Big congrats! I should have jumped on that sale. Gotta save my pennies these days though.
 
Hey any recommendation for getting stands for display? Any good reliable websites?

That was just lighting. I stated too that I would wear the Standard out for cosplay and the Premier for display as its too nice to wear out, LOL.

So will ANOVOS be issuing a Premier Death Trooper helmet that has the lights on the front? Is anyone going to mod their helmet and add lights.

For helmet stands, most just use some variation of a paper towel holder usually found at Target. Wood, steel, different designs just used depending on your display plans and or layout.

For example, my ESB Darty Ugly I used a wooden paper towel holder(spray painted black), a small, 2-3" diameter styrofoam ball and pegged it to the top of the paper towel stand and it fits in a Detolf. Total money and effort was less than $5 and about 10 min.

Yet, my Gino ESB TK just sits on the shelf :lol. Like I said, all about your display options/ideas.

I think Got Maul mentioned a number of pages back that they were possibly going to do one with the lights and eyepiece later on, but I guess it could always change. Thanks for the pics, looks great!

What about a Darth Vader helmet with Shoulder pads and mantle?

I'm afraid I can't help you with that, I don't have any other Vader armor parts. There are others here that have built "Vader busts" instead of 1:1 Vaders. Hopefully, they will chime in.

Googling "Vader bust" shows mostly the Sideshow version but some custom ones as well.
 
I will say, I now know why there are professional dressers on movie sets. Everyone else was at work today, & trying to put this on - with the helmet- was a bit of a pain in the butt. & setting up the cell phone - in helmet & flowing capes - was an even bigger pain! :p

I dressed up my friend who had me commissioned to build him a Darth Vader outfit ... it took me more than an hour to have all the parts where they need to go . . . so yeah bring a dresser/un-dresser along when trooping. Also my rule of thumb if you don't have a helmet with fans installed is : 15 to 20 minutes trooping then 30 - 45 minutes or longer break with the helmet off and drink plenty of fluids! Does the Anovos suit come with a zipper? At least the Custom-Props leather suit does ... thank the maker :)

I don't have the full suit..... yet ;), but I can now see why frequent breaks while cosplaying would be needed. & from my understanding, yes, the ANOVOS Dath Vader suit has a zipper under the cod piece.

& that Death Trooper helmet is gorgeous!
 
Can't see where and if a member has stated this......the Anovos DV cape attaches to the amor via 6 snaps ( 3 on each side). Can the cape or rather, has anyone bought the cape with another set of armour? If so, how does if look/attach?


Best
