Thanks! yeah over the years I've wound up with enough extra parts that I said well I can sell em and technically lose money on em or build a permanent life size Display...Obviously I went with the display. only had to buy a few parts specifically for the mannequin. Call me crazy but I just don't like having to take parts off a display when I want to wear the costume, all of the stuff I wear stays in my carrying case and in a large garment bag.

I have two Cylons. One is one display, and the other to wear for costuming. Now who is crazy? :cylongold:

I can totally see that! It's such a cool costume I could see wanting to display it but not wanting the hassle of undressing an mannequin Everytime you want to wear it.

:loveit: my Vader set me back $3500.000NZD for my total set up, now my suit for it is falling apart as I've trooped in it quite a number of times.
My voice box is from Jim at Rom fx which set me back about $550.00NZD.
The advantage with this is that it has the breathing sound along with the ability to talk in character.
Oh by the way, I didn't tell my wife I got a bank loan out for this and she found out :blink:
Still getting parts every now and again, most expensive would be an accurate helmet.

Wow, the helmet tops a full body under suit?! I guess it does take a lot of work, and then is so iconic - commands quite a price. BUT SOOOO COOL! :)
