They make a spray for that that. Look in the laundry detergent section.

Re: Mike's Vader Build Thread

as for the shins.....well just do not let Ripcode know you have ROTS shins :roll: since he is the GML. Ripcode you are not seeing this reply. [waves hand like Obi] "these aren't the shins you are looking for" No problem... The LMO is the one that approves Sith Lords and EU characters! :P ...

Re: Mike's Vader Build Thread

Rob, Shawn, Phil...

Is there any one version of Vader that is easier to build? Or are they all equally tough?

Which version seems to be most popular currectly?

Which version has the most reference material?

The rubbies shins might make it through o.k.
That would probably be the only part off the shelf,But double check just to be sure.
But,are the shins long enough? How tall are you?
Hey Shawn! :)

I was wondering when you would get here and check in and help out in this thread!

Correct.

However, a modified and repainted Vader helmet (to be more accurate) and modified and re-painted armor would more likely be accepted.

Straight out of the box Rubies Vader gear is a NO-GO.

Unmodified Rubies Vader gear is NOT 501st acceptable. Sith Lord standards are VERY high!

Re: Mike's Vader Build Thread

Did Mike make the back of the top out of mesh or something breathable?

Looks like Mike and Anton have some great sewing skills! Those will come in VERY handy! :thumbs:

I hate for him to spend a lot of work and money into this and find out that it is not canon. Rip you know what we have for him so far and we only have about 1/3 of it ...

Re: Costume Bay/Costume Base Warnings

I split the Costume Bay/Costume Base opinion posts off into it's own thread. :) I am glad you guys are talking about this vendor. A lot of people are under the impression they are buying 501st approved costumes from this vendor. From what I have heard and what you guys are saying that doesn't sound ...
