    I know a dude that has one and dresses up to go to kid's schools etc.  His wife dresses up as slave Leia too.  And, yes, they both fit into the outfits without any bulges, or vomit inducing images.  She looks pretty good, and he actually looks like he could have been straight off the Star Wars set.

    One thing I hear a lot is the fiberglass armor pieces are sharp if you don't watch out.

    I wouldnt spend a grand on that. To be honest it looks cheap. If you zoom in on the image you can see a bunch of dents and stuff all over the costume. Maybe its made like that? idk but for a grand it better be mint and made out of really nice materials.

    $1K seems to be the going rate for a quality suit.  They have crappier cheap plastic ones for $600, but this one seems to be the highest quality.  Has good reviews too, and this place has a 14-day return policy, with no restocking fee!
     
    I feel like I NEED IT.
     
    Only thing I'm worried about is me fitting into it.  I'm 6 foot, about 260lbs.  36" waist... hmmmmmm

    Naw, no boots.  They say to just go to a store and buy white Michael Jackson-esque boots to complete it.

      I always wanted to go to school one day in something ridiculous, but my poison of choice was a full set of gothic knight armor.  Chainmail and all.  Sadly, a full set was too pricy for a student, especially with the gauntlets and helmet I wanted to use.

    haha do it, but maybe find one that is cheaper and better built
    like steel or something
     
     I have a almost full samurai set (a real one)
    I should show up to school in it lol, but I'd get stopped at the front door with all the pointy sharp stuff, if the police don't get me first

    I wanted to go to school in a barrel with straps.  I never could find the straps.  The barrel neither.

    Huh...I like that idea, but who needs a barrel?

    Go to a supermarket with self opening doors and say, "Open the blast doors" as each person walks in.
