The Ultimate X-Wing Pilot Thread

2 questions
1. Anyone know what happened to Richie's Armor? their site is down.

2. What are the rivet looking things on Lukes vest? front shoulder straps, I don't see them on anyone's vest

I'll try to get a cap is I can get my laptop working :cry
 
Luke had clips riveted on the (back) in empire, similer to the light saber clips on OB1's belt.
All the pilots wore them backwards in Empire.

He uses one of them to clip the graple gun to when getting out of the downed speeder.
And yes he's the only one with them.

Richie's Armor is history? If that's true, that's too bad.

I just ran out of the Flak Vest insertion locks.

However, if any one is interested in getting them, send me a pm or email. I can put you on a waiting list. I use to sell these for around $12 a set, shipped.

I got one email a few weeks back from some one who was interested, but that was about it. I'm due to place another bulk order.

I also have plenty of X-wing comm pad kits in stock. See my post in the junkyard.

Be sure and check out the posts on ASAP, under rebel costuming. We've got some good threads going in reference to the x-wing costume and all the components.

There is also the dewback wing group over at yahoo. We've got plenty of reference photos. MJF occasionally sells the X-Wing belt buckles.

Good luck with the cosutme. ;)

Hmmm...I just got off the phone with these guys. They say the MINIMUM order on these clasps is 150 pairs of them. :(
Anyone have just one set they want to sell???
I don't think we have enough people interested here to do a bulk order.

Yup, saber clips like on Obi/Vader trilogoy belts.

Dallas had these on his vest.. there are 2 holes at the top of the metal bracket to attach to belt/other. 2 rivots to hold it in place.- think that's what you are seeing. The metal is under the fabric, then the clip/loop sticks out.

Wonder if I can find a pic of Dals vest.. nicest one I have seen made.
