If you look at the action figure, you can see he's wearing braces and the holster. The holster appears to go under the arm.

My impression was that this figure is NOT licenced (hence why it's called 'Replicant Hunter'), so it's likely been designed with the same sort of guesswork we employ on here. This depiction of the full braces + holster may be right, but it may also be completely wrong.
I won't be satisfied until I see a suitable production still without the jacket.

That's not an official figure though, so they are potentially going on the same amount of reference we have. None of the other stills that have been released where he isn't wearing the coat or holster show him wearing braces. Also on the pictures of the gun and holster from the Comicon display you can see the 2 adjusters on the thin strap and the silver suspender clip folded underneath that are visible on the strap clipped to his waistband in the 'couch' shot..
It certainly does look like it on the main part of the rig - a lightly waffle-textured neoprene or possibly EVA foam sheet with bound edges. You can see the detail of the fabric in one Adam Savage's pictures from the display:

I've never gone through them before. What was your buying process? Coat looks fantastic.

Now i'm wondering if it was me who shared that originally
My memory ain't what it used to be!

This is the screen-used prop. It was from a Wired Magazine feature last month.

Don't know if this might help with the whole holster thing, but I have found some stills of him without the jacket:
Doesn't seem to have 2 straps just one suspender strap on the left side, as some mentioned in previous posts and no "x" crossing over suspender thing on the back.

I see there's a cam-rip of the film going around then?
It does show that the elasicated suspender strap is positioned to run across the shoulders and then around the right side of the neck.Apart from Mr Savage's picture in my previous post that shows the waffle texture of the neoprene/foam for the main strap, the only other pics of the holster frame are from when it was on display at SDCC:
As I said before, I think it looks like it's made up of 4 pieces of 3D printed or machined plastic (2 cups that fit around the barrel shroud and 2 rails that run along the frame of the gun), an aluminium plate at the muzzle end (with a slot that the rig attaches to), a threaded standoff/spacer at the hammer end (that holds the 2 sides together using button-head hex screws) and some kind of fabric panel (maybe lycra'/spandex) that holds the gun into the frame under the trigger guard, and although we can't see it I think there must be another aluminium plate attached to the inner side piece that the otrher end of the rig attaches to.
We really need some better pictures of the frame part - it looks to be lined with thin black foam, but it expect it's tightly contoured around the blaster to get a snug fit (it was probably designed to fit around the 3D model of the blaster). That might be where a problem arises due to variations in the sizes of the blaster kits available.

That looks really good. I would lengthen the coat 4"-6" though. It's supposed to go down to knee level, maybe even slightly below them.

That is a huge issue if one holster reproduction won't fit all...
And I doubt each of the blaster makers is going to want to make one of these to fit their pistol (nor can I blame them) rgriesbeck
I'm beginning to think this might be the DIY part of the 2049 build, which I might consider once I see some more images.

Have to agree on that front. It does look a tad short, but then that may well be affected by how tall the wearer is aswell.

Just thought I would point out that there are two straps visible in photos 1 and 4, starting from the top left and going across. So definitely not just the one strap on his left. Not sure how that works though because on the back photo there seems to be only one. Maybe its just really thin?
