Best Vader representation ever in my opinion. And I look quite good in the suit myself except I am knock kneed so if I don't stand right, I screw up the whole thing. LOL
 
Just upgraded my belt to a Portumac belt and got new high gloss ABS shins from I believe Korbanth on here, on the way. The belt is AMAZING!!!! All I need is to get my cape satin lined with a leather or pleather collar, get new boots and cod and new shoulder armor and I should be 501st acceptable if I am not already.

Would you be so kind to send me a list of the abbreviated prop parts for the ESB Vader you did for your costume. I'm trying to build a screen accurate lifesize ESB Vader. Trying to do the research, but I'm not getting anywhere. Any help with whom you purchased all your pieces from would be greatly appreciated!!!
 
Trying to get the screen accurate pieces that ACE REPLICAS posted on their ESB Vader parts!?

ACE has been retired from the Prop business for well over a year now, literally the only thing he has for sale at the moment is a couple spare ANH Belt boxes he found
Are you looking to build a costume for display or are you looking to build something to join the 501st?
 
For display. Indy Magnoli does the David Prowse gloves. They said they could do a screen accurate leather jacket, pants, and inner robe. So I guess I'm looking for the Leather cod piece, cape & accurate chain, and shinguards if they make any in fiberglass still like the originals for ESB. You know if the ESB belt boxes and aluminum belt buckle were weathered a bit or kept clean? I know the ANH had some weathering around the belt boxes and aluminum belt buckle.
