I've been drooling over Mr. Predicta's helmets for a while now and was wondering what else was available. Looking at maybe picking up a few things so any help is appreciated. I would really love to see any costumes(especially the pilot gear) and the guns.
There's versions of the different season's blasters out there by several different makers (Matsuo's seems to have the popular vote as being "the best"--I love mine ) Matsuo's BG blasters
There's also tons of costume & prop info over at ASAP
Matt, here's my BG 05 collection---the COP pistols are also used in BLADE RUNNER and THE MATRIX RELOADED, so they have double duty....
Ballots and bank notes by jkolton, offered up as free paper props here at the RPF--thanks.
Guns on the right by Matsuo--unfinished miniseries version and a COP (Matsuo build up). The guns on the left are a season 1 rotocast, and a solid resin COP.
Patches & lighters from eBay, and the "pilot's survival tool" came with a cheap flashlight I bought at Target. :lol
If anyone is at all interested in the flightsuit fabric, get over to ASAP now. There is another group order on to get the green fabric for the flight suit and the gold fabric for the back pannels.
Brian I hate you you're just rubbing all those cool props in my face. I'm going to pick up one of those season 1 blasters from DStines though, it looks AWESOME.

Link to pix and info on the Pilots outfit.
And as mentioned there is a second run on the Green fabric and a first run on the Gold fabric.
I believe there will also be another run on the pouches.
Some of the ones we got in the first run turned out to be wrong. :rolleyes
FYI, if you plan on doing a pilot costume be prepared to shell out at least a grand.
The materials found are THE ACTUAL materials used by the studio.
The materials are $32 a yard(5 Grn + 2 Gld = $224) and the pouches are about $200.
The patches & lighters are easy to find on eBay--for the lighter, you want one that is has no texture or paint. My accurate one is nearly mint, quite a feat considering it's from the '40s.
