There have been some show off threads, but no real info threads. I would love any info pointing to Doc gear, even "close-enough" stuff.

Yeah.. Would be nice.. Tryign to track down Marty gear.. Found his checkered short, but still looking for the red vest and radiation outfit..
Ha, that would be cool! Just saw that Magnoli offers a DEAD ON Marty denim jacket.
Any leads on Doc's train shirt, or a look-alike, would be appreciated.

^ no prob. I have yet to come across anyone who ever complained about anything Magnoli has created.
The 'holy grail' of BTTF costuming for me is the 2015 Jacket. Alas, it is one of those few costume pieces that has YET to be succesfully recreated by anyone anywhere.
So it looks like I may have hit a lonely patch here in this thread, I know this is a pretty obscure project.
Can anyone offer any help with the wig? The typical mad scientist wigs I have seen are attached to a bald cap which isn't good.
Thanks!
I am on my way with my 1:1 Doc, got the face attached, now I have to bondo majorly and paint.

I have the shirt from the uniform for the ride. I worked there for the last summer that it was up and running in LA. You might try looking for one of those, they have to be floating around somewhere... Only difference is the sleeves aren't as long as the real costume...
Thanks for the tip!

I actually have a few of the train shirts that the ride operators wore at Universal from the now-defunct BTTF: The Ride.
Last one I sold on eBay went for $100, but I've seen 'em go for a bit more, too.
The only difference is that the Ride shirts are short-sleeved and the one from the movie is 3/4, but I can live with the difference. I've also toyed with the idea of finding two shirts with even wear fading and pulling one apart to make the proper length sleeves.
Here's the pics I used for the last auction:
Let me know if you're interested...

I've always thought this one looked pretty close:

I don't own one, so I don't know if it looks the same in person. It would need a haircut anyway, but it could work.

My last name is Flynn and my nickname was Fly, and i've always love BTTF so needless to say I've always wanted to do a Marty costume, and get some BTTF props. I was talking to my friend who loves BTTF as well and said he should be Doc Brown with me on Halloween. He thought it was a good idea but didn't think there was a clear recognizable Doc costume the way the "lifevest" is with Marty. I'm curious what most of you guys think is the most worthwhile Doc costume to pursue. I was gonna try and put together a Future " we don't need roads costume, or maybe the clock tower 1955 costume.
