Yippee! It won't be long now.......

Post by Fedora »

As most do NOT know, I am to recieve my CS jacket, as a gift, here shortly. Well, kinda of, sorta shortly. I will have to wait until right after the film breaks as they do not want it in anyone's hands until then. Can't say that I blame them. At any rate, once the jacket makes it to me, I will gladly post photos and give you guys the specs, unless someone beats me to it. Needless to say, I am really excited about owning one, mostly due to the fact that I would never own one if I had to buy it myself. Kinda pricey. Fedora

Congratulations! Can't wait for the pics. I think that jacket will be very rare around here judging from the price!

Just out of curiousity, do you also get to keep one of the hats from the movie too! ...that would be too cool to have!

Wow, do you know how much you have to pay if you want to own a real Hero-prop like this? Especially if it's an Indiana Jones prop? Thousands and thousands of dollars.:lol:
Yeah, I'm a little bit jealous now, but you deserve that kind of gift. The costumer seems to be quite happy with the quality and price of your product. Can't wait to see some pics here... :D

That sounds like a great deal, Steve! :D Since you get one of Tony's jackets, does he get one of your hats?

Congrats Steve, you well deserve it. I can't wait to see for the pics of the jacket. :D I am not sure if I will have the money to afford one these CS jackets when they are available. You deserve to have a CS jacket with all the work you did and they should throw in one the hats you made anyway. :wink: That is great that some of movie history is with one of us COW members, wish we could get our hands on that raider jacket. Can't wait to see pics Steve, and congrats again.

That's awesome!
Are you getting one of the jackets made for the movie as a souvenir, or are you getting one made for you to wear?

Fedora, will it be a screen-used jacket? Even if not, that is still very cool news to be one of the first to own one!

Good for you, bud!

No, not screen used, but made at the same time. In the same run, just to my personal size. The thing is, I will NEVER use it as a daily jacket, since it is a collectible to me. And I could not afford to replace it.

It will be nice to have one in the original pattern, because who knows what changes will occur as time passes. Fedora

Steve, congrats on getting such a cool gift. :clap: :clap: :clap: I can't wait to see it. :D

If I was you I'd lock it in a vault! Lord knows how much that will be worth someday.....Even IF it wasn't used on screen. :wink:

Good to know, that we'll always know how the CS jacket and hat looked like. We won't have the problems we have with Raiders right now. :lol:

I wonder if the jacket will be distressed or new?

Well its still great that you are getting a jacket from Tony, even it might not be on screen it is coming from the same run just as Harrison Ford got for the film. I thought Tony is going to sell the jackets just as he made for the movie starting May 22nd :-k I don't know, no one really knows. I won't be able to afford a $800+ jacket anyway so I doubt I am getting one. Congrats again Steve and I can't wait to see some pics. :D
