I love Bossk too. I just want to find his blaster and a good Mask to display.

Bossk's blaster isn't that hard to make. I made a 1:1 scale xerox of the original prop, and then found a cheap, broken paintball gun that matched for the core. Then is was just a matter of finding the right diameter tubes, and getting the cast resin periscopes, of the type used on many Star Wars weapons. The stock is from an Iraqi AK, as is the forward grip (couldn't bring back the whole gun, so at least put these bits to good use). The big metal wrist guard is made from 1/2 inch steel banding material beefed up into a u section with epoxy putty.
I apparently can't post my images of these as I have already used them in other 'Bossk threads' here.
Other than the masks, hands and feet, the only other bits that I know are commericially available are the white anti-G vests and belt buckles - both because they are part of the X Wig costume too.
My flight suit is a converted USAF one.

he's no longer registered which means he was either a recaster or worse. I'd love some hand and feet too , but through a upstanding dealer

He made the current mask of my Bossk you see here. He is the original sculptor and makes lots of awesome stuff, including even a full size adult T Rex head! He is still active, just emailed him a couple of days ago about another project. His Bossk arms are extremely well made, like the mask, though not exactly screen accurate so didn't use them. The feet are excellent, but were not large enough for me, so I scratch built my own with individual scales.

I have arms feet and a mask that was made for me about a year ago by a private artist. I will have to find my pics to post. I just need my friend to do the finishing touches with the color.

I would LOVE a Bossk mask. Anybody able to point me to where I can buy a cheapo mask? Been doing a bunch of searches but nothing really found. Accuracy is def not a big deal to me, just price lol Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I'll second that....
That's one of the most 'screen accurate' Bossk masks I've ever seen.
Ironically, the much 'scalier' looking full size bust collectible and other new figures and toys have spawned an entirely new 'look' for Bossk, much as the klingons of Star Trek have assumed a different look. But since the bust is a licensed SW product, Bossk now looks a bit different than the orignal film version.
I went with one of the newer, scalier 'Bossks' as it was one of the only really good masks commercially available, and the new look is largely accepted as 'Bossk'. I'd love to use Fatwaller's type mask and arms, if this wasn't a single commission, and the molds are not to be used again.

I'll 3rd that. That is a sweet mask and I'd like to know as well.
