It all depends on how much you want to spend, and how accurate you want it to be. A good place to start would be http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/forums/

I have a 1997 Don Post Boba Fett helmet for sale if you're interested. Not accurate but affordable. PM me for details.

hey~ i see a fellow mandalorian~

Pls pls pls....do not get frm Starfortress if u value your money. not to budge in, but the only thing that will ever be usefull is thier shin tools and knee armor (if they arrvie at all...yesh, u heard me, IF they arrive at all)

They tend to push back dates for mths and when they finally reach u. the (crappy) stuff is either in the wrong shade, size / measurments or faulty.

Theres a few makers of the armor at www.thedentedhelmet.com and they will post time to timethier wares, so i suggest u (and any inspiring mandalorians) to stalk there and ask questions often (AFTER trying the search function of the forum....).
Boba makers are kinda sliding recently, not seen may requests for it (maybe i am just lurking 99% of the time at the jango section :P )

To add, u might also wanna try http://www.tk409.com/fett.html he is one of the best boba makers in the bussiness....

I'll chime in here with regards to StarFotressProduction. Having been a regular over at the 501st Legion HQ Forums as well as the 501st Blizzard Force forums, there is ONLY this GOOD ADVISE - Stay AWAY from them, far far away. This is on account of these 2 Gross Major Sins shared by fellow forum members based on their painful and disappointing experiences :

1. They deliver the wrong and crappy stuff that you've ordered, that is IF they have managed to get to that stage.

2. They take your hardearned $$$$ and NEVER deliver the goods. :x

Good recommendation Jacen. Chris "TK 409" is one of the better Boba Fett / Sandtrooper / Tusken Raider / Jawa / Stormtooper costume component source out there at the World Wide Web. Though I may not have done business with TK 409 as yet, he is HIGHLY Regarded in the 501st. :)

not to sound like some guru, but i feel that I must dispense this advise to all budding new costumers:

Never dive in for the sake of convenience, it usually ends up with more hardwork and even harder earned $$..


Good luck on the Boba, and maybe we could troop soon and we shall rule the galaxy as father and son~!

*ahem*

Some where along the lines... :wink:
