Hi, used a lot of ideas from these threads, so I'd like to say thanks and thought Id show the finished-ish product I had from RICC/Halloween.

Ahhh - a custom job for $550 - I paid $169 for this:

And the custom job is astronomically more accurate and made of actual leather, you get what you pay for.

You bought two of the trench coats?
Are they different makers?
I've been trying to get opinions on them. I can't buy the custom trench here for $550. I wish I could, but it's not in the cards. How do you like the ones you got?

I don't think it is a good idea go buy anything from a sell with a store named Unknown.

This one looks pretty inaccurate too, and it's only got two out of five stars. Probably not worth your hard-earned money!

I bought this: http://www.rakuten.com/prod/star-lo...alaxy-star-lord-cosplay-adults/271307641.html
and am happy with it - the only caveat being that when the LEDs are on - you can't see very well.

Drax had blue pants in the end and Rocket had this uniform but Gamora was in black and Star Lord was still in his maroon outfit.

I bought it in SEPT, I got my money back and was able to keep the mask.
It cut up my ear due to sharp projections on the collar. I also was bruised around my eyebrow.
It wasn't a hard-helmet as promised on the original Amazon ad. It's flexible.
The back is slit up the middle, you have to pivot the neck area wide open to get your head into it.
The electronic lenses are an assembly about 3/4 of an inch thick. I couldn't use them, I had to go get normal red acrylic lenses, so mine doesn't glow.
For anyone who has trouble seeing out of these with the red lights on, try getting a light blue transparent sheet and putting it over the eyehole. It should help with visibility by filtering out the red light.
If you're willing to put in some work, priming painting it, smoothing the rough spots, it might be worth $59. Like another said, it's not the most accurate, but you won't get that for sub-$100. It's more a costume mask than a collector-level product.
The one you linked to is the "normal" size. There is also a large version, which is not slit up the back, but it's so big I think it looks bobblehead-ish.

Not completely accurate but figured I'd throw my cosplay in the ring from a couple months back. Working on upgrading it now.

Am building the young Peter Quill ensemble for my 9 year old son. Need some HELP to ID the plaid red wool maybe shirt, the 2 remaining patches on the Jansport Backpack. NOTE: 2 versions exist: 1. when we are first introduced to Peter Quill on Earth and the other time hanging on board the MILANO ship. I already found the vintage backpack and the correct NASA patch. My attempt to build the later unless i can get definite IDs on the patched used on the first. Not sure if the plaid shirt is production made or retail. We have google image the results and yield close but not 100% screen accurate results. Feel free to time in on his esoteric build
