WOW. I haven't been on here in a while but I didn't know the AB wait time had expanded so long! I lucked out on getting my order in when I did, I only wish I had purchased two now, because my hat has basically tripled in value I think I paid around $235 for mine and now they're at $650! I dare not w...

What is different about the one Relic Raider sells? Well for one thing it's pretty SA, if that matters to you. You pay a little more but you don't get the painted on design like Zippo's lighter. He actually has resign badges that he applies to the lighter, which makes it more authentic looking to t...

A vendor on Feebay is selling these and has many available (10 at the moment). I normally don't ever give ebay notices, but this is a pretty good one for all those who want a Lucky Clover Zippo. They are $37.00, with some in his other auctions starting at much less, just check out his 'other auctio...

Indiana Snipes

Placing my order now, it will be interesting to see how these compare to my Aldens. If they're just as good then it will save me $250+ that I was going to pay for another pair.

Indiana Snipes

If they were as good as his shirts I wouldn't think twice.

I just got one of these yesterday, it looks awesome. Though I think I'm not filling the tank up correctly because I only seem to be able to get 5-6 shots before having to refill the tank with gas again, which is a little annoying. Anyone know how many shots I should be able to get off if I was fill...

Shane

Compared to my Magnoli, Todd's seems to be the one that's actually more fitted!

Indiana Snipes

I just received my Todd's shirt today and I have to say I love it, I got a medium and the fit is awesome, it's almost like it's fitted! Though I could stand to lose a few pounds in the gut, and hopefully it won't shrink on me too much in the wash, but upon first wear this beats the pants off my Magn...

Indiana Snipes

Out of total surprise I received my hat Monday, never got an email so I wasn't expecting it. Negatives: My name wasn't on the band as I had requested and the bash was completely lop sided (so now I have to attempt to redo it), but overall the hat definitely has a higher quality to it than the Federa...

I order mine on July 4th 2007, have not heard anything from Steve, and never heard anything back from my emails or PM's that were sent many months ago...

Got some adventure pants and they turned out a little bigger than I planned in the waist. If I machine wash these and stick them in the dryer how significantly will they shrink? I got them a little long too (on purpose) so I'm not worried about that, but I wasn't planning on the waist being so loose...

Indiana Snipes

I'm ordering a pair of pants and a shirt, but this is the first time I have ever ordered anything from them...where do give the sizing info?

Indiana Snipes

Last part of the article says Steve is not sure he'll go to the premiere...Steve you better show up to the premiere...talk about a once in a life-time opportunity. Don't pass that up.

Indiana Snipes

Well I ordered mine the beginning of July...so if I'm getting it before the film releases I'm happy. After getting it I might just have to order a Raiders style before the price increase...that should do me.

I have had some experience with both of the blank guns shown. You would be much better off getting a resin copy of the S&W Hand Ejector. Neither of these blank guns are of quality, both breaking easily. Also, they are far smaller then the real thing...Terry They break easy under what type of us...

What about the length of the whole gun? The first one is 7 inches long, so would the Raiders be about 9 inches?

I wear my jacket almost everyday to work, so that's not something to worry about.

Indiana Snipes

I guess I'm just cursed with bad luck when it comes to this jacket :? ...oh well it's not a big deal, I still think I might cut it out that way it would be like the the inside of the big flap pockets on the front of the jacket.

I discovered something tonight, and wanted to see if anyone else was having the same issue. The polyester lining inside the hand warmer pockets is coming out, and since I have never stuck my hands in them until now I can only assume they were this way or weren't sewn in very well that it didn't take...

Indiana Snipes

I think the jacket is supposed to be a little short, more like a motorcycle jacket. Only reason I say that is because the arms and waste fit more than perfectly on me, yet the jacket doesn't go much further below my belt. I have really enjoyed my jacket, but I'll warn anybody, if your a perfectionis...

Indiana Snipes

Watching the movies it's quite clear that Indy's brim isn't as wide as what you get when you order a Fed, so I'm wanting to trim my brim a little to make the hat look a little more like it belongs on my head. My one fear is screwing up and not cutting it symmetrical (I want it to flow and not be jag...

Indiana Snipes

Well I received my replacement jacket yesterday and am happy to say that the issue I was having before with the pleat appears to have been with that one jacket alone. This one fits together very well, unfortunately there seem to be quite a few small cuts into the outer skin of the leather in various...

Indiana Snipes

How do you pull off the bash in the front on the crown like that? Is that with steam? I've tried getting that by hand but the impression isn't staying like that.

Indiana Snipes

Snipes, you get your replacement yet? It's been a week. I shipped it back to Todd Wednesday and then received a tracking number for the replacement Thursday. It must have not been shipped out though because I should have got it today if it had been, so looks like Monday :cry: I should be getting my...

Indiana Snipes

I can't wait to get my Indy IV hat, hopefully before the film comes out! I know your still on 06 orders Steve but I hope you'll be getting to 07 soon, I placed my order July 4th so crossing my fingers that I'll have it by premiere time!

Indiana Snipes

Good to know the measurement issue isn't a typical thing. Compared to my chalk line that is nothing, the one on mine is down the entire right side, not just partially, of course if it's not a sign of being off measurement I don't care about it but since mine is off on that side I can't help but wond...

Indiana Snipes

I.S. it's no problem. I'll swap it out. I've got to see this jacket, now. I can't imagine what could cause this. Just don't measure the next one. :lol: I'll be shipping it back to you probably on Wednesday or Thursday that's the next time I'll be around a UPS. Hey other than me and Aeris discussing...

Yea and how many people here actually put their jacket through that?!?

Indiana Snipes

I have tried everything to get that side to fit straight like the opposing side, even pulling it while I had it on, and all it would do would bunch up again while the other side stayed absolutely smooth and flush against the back. I know it's not my body shape because it's clear the jacket doesn't r...

Indiana Snipes

see.. I thought I remembered him saying that the jackets were measured exactly.. and to order up a size from whatever your chest measures, instead of going down like I did with the GB. that would mean I'd order a 46 (the 42 GB should actually measure 46 inside)... I just wonder what the sleeve leng...

Indiana Snipes

well, the sleeves on the expo I would like to have longer... but it's a "tall", and they don't exactly offer a "taller" size. also, it's a size 42.. that doesn't exactly equate to todd's sizing chart, since the expo's are not exact measurements. hopefully someone knows how todd ...

Indiana Snipes

well.. since you and I both know I'm retarded, I guess there's no point in editing my posts to seem less stupid. yeah, todd's measurements threw me off then. I'm not sure what I was thinking.. my expo measures 24 1/2. how do his measurements work then? if the L has 25ish sleeves, I'll order one rig...

Indiana Snipes

lol.. what do you think your dress shirt size is?? you measure from the shoulder seam to the bottom of the sleeve. but you can't measure straight down with a ruler, you either have to use a cloth measuring tape, or be able to contour a tape measurer to the jacket sleeve, because it's not a straight...

Indiana Snipes

uh.. my sleeve length from shoulder to cuff is 35. that chart right there says it's 32" and that comes from todd's site. my expo measures 35 and I even think THAT'S too short once the leather breaks in. where do you get 23? I just measured the jacket I got from him which is a medium... hold on...

Nice shirt, from the pics it looks kinda pink to me (must be the flash). Anyways I'm looking into buying one of these.

Indiana Snipes

I.Ss, it looks like the right pleat might be stuck together inside with some rubber cement. Reach in there and it should pull apart easily. They use rubber cement in the assembly to hold the leather in position, and they might have missed that spot when they were pulling it apart. Okay, tried that ...

I've had jackets do that when pulled really tight at the sides like this. One side tucks under smoothly while the other wrinkles up a bit.

Okay so I started fooling around with the back straps and noticed something that kinda annoys me.

When you wear it's very noticeable because the right side is...

Hey, Snipes, as asked about, what jacket size do you normally wear? How does that medium compare to, say, a size 40 Regular? I don't wear jackets too much, but I do have a suit coat in 40R, the 40R is bigger, definitely longer (much longer) the sleeves are about the same length. But this jacket is ...
