I have an extra pair of Men's Medium (size 9/22.50 cms) police riot gloves used as TFA pilots gloves. made by in the UK by Southcombe Brothers the original manufacturer. Sizing info here: http://www.southcombe.com/sizing/i70 - - - Updated - - - The leather WampaWear is using is not heavy...

I believe the glove in question with the single thumb pad (as opposed to Poe's 2 piece thumb padding) is a Arnold Engineering Plastics Ltd M300 Gauntlet Glove. http://www.arnold-ppe.com/M300.asp

There is a group order for original gloves, all sizes over on Rebel Legion forums. http://www.forum.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=69536

The Jumpsuits in Episode 5 The Empire Strikes back are the same ones used in IV and VI. They were commercial orange jumpsuits from the 1970s with pockets added.

Awesome! What did you you use as your host helmet (if any)?

I think you did great. These Rubies blasters are cheap and fun to paint. I have done 2. On a future build you could putty and sand the screw holes (other than for the battery door). Dry brush the wood grip with a lighter brown paintto bring out the texture pf the ribbing on the grips. Sand off...

Really impressive 6 great costumes in 10 months!

The 4 ft dolls are $99 there is also a Vader doll in this size. Could serve as the basis for master forms for child scale armor. With some knee pieces, a helmet and some better shoes I think this could be a really great costume.

Re: My Re-Carded Star Wars The Force Awakens Figures - Retro Style! Really nice work very professional. I would change the Kenner logo to the appropriate Hasbro logo for 1978. :) http://logos.wikia.com/wiki/Hasbro

I'd pickup a Rubies Han Solo toy blaster for $12 and spray paint it. It can literally be done in 15 mins if you don't count drying time.

I think you did a nice job weathering. If I might be so bold, having just finished painting one of these blasters myself the grips should be brown all the way to the bottom and the top. Just like the grips on a real broomhandle Mauser. :)
