ALERT!!!! ANOVOS LAUNCHES TOS TUNICS WITH THIRD SEASON KIRK TUNIC!!!

"The first release of the The Original Series line. Its with the greatest pleasure we have decided to bring out the heaviest of the heavy hitters as our first limited time offering : The Uniform of Captain James T. Kirk.

I will keep the details to a minimum but this fabric will use the same weight, composition and weave of the original fabrics used in the later seasons of Star Trek TOS. The color was painstakingly matched using an in-hand screen used sample piece with pattern pulled by a professional pattern making team, using a screen used hero with special thanks to the Greg Jein collection. Features will include diamond weave neck material, captain’s rank braid orientation and patch.

Please note patch and braid in picture are prototypes with special thanks to Farragut Films for their ongoing support and partnership. The Anovos rank braid and ship patch (seen in previous posts) will be used for final product."

Posted on ANOVOS' Facebook page within the last hour! WHOOOOOHOOOOO!!!

Yep just saw this.

Glad they started with this one!!

I absolutely hate this "batch run" model. Hopefully once they have banged out all these costumes, you can just order what you want, when you want. I don't mind waiting longer for something as long as I can get it when I can afford it.

It's a shame because I'm dedicating what money I can to another costume for NYCC, so I can't jump on this.

 

[Apollo]

Don't take this the wrong way but I would change your priorities.

I don't think these are going to be offered vey long.

You miss the run and you miss out.

 

[Havok69]

Understood - and I have weighed it, and decided against them. I already have a very close TOS outfit, just not 100% accurate. I would rather have some variety. Hopefully these guys aren't fly by night and stick around.

I do still wonder what happened for Cawley to split with them.

On a side note; are these the same guys that were part of Shadowdale? That might explain a few things.

 

[AshGL1914]

By NO stretch of the imagination were either Joe or Dana associated with Shadowdale Creations.

Joe and Dana are long standing members of our costuming community here at the RpF, over at ASAP/Dewback Wing, Starfleet 1701st, and other prop and costuming sites. As an acquaintance/friend of Joe and thus peripheraly of ANOVOS, (and as someone personally burned by disreputable STAR TREK costumers like Orion Woman Raven), I can state that ANOVOS is trying to be completely above board in their dealings with their customers. As for James' involvement with ANOVOS, all I can guess is that it mostly had to do with everybody's schedules (James is obviously a very busy man), and all parties are still friendly, intact if you were to follow ANOVOS' Facebook page, you might have even noticed a conversation regarding accuracy of insignia patches that ended with what I presume to be a plesent phone conversation between ANOVOS and Bill T's old apprentice.

That's good to know. I'll have to check in on them again when I have some cash to burn...

 

[AshGL1914]

It's cool, I just have no desire to see two of our own mentioned alongside the likes of Shadowdale, OrionWoman Raven, Joe K, or any of the other conartists that have tried to sell STAR TREK uniforms over the years.

Joe and Dana have good reputations and the faith of CBS & Paramount to deliver the goods and that's good enough for me. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm going to go sell another kidney.

Did we ever get any word on pants?

 

[Apollo]

Nothing yet, I'll let you know if I hear anything.

Not yet, but if I hear anything...

By the same token, if anybody else hears anything, please let us know.

I'd also love to see a reasonable priced boot option. They stated they were looking into it at one point. I've got Motor Cowboy boots, but they're definitely off. I'd like to get a better set...

 

[Apollo]

The boots are really not that hard I have taken my Screen-Used pair to bootmakers over the years and they said they could make them.
