Knock. Knock.  It's Fed Ex with some goodies.





Costume design:
I've spent some time deciding on the look of a costume that I like.  I'm a big guy, 6' 7", 275 lbs.  I wanted something that had a familiar look people will recognize.  Yet add my ideas to it and make it appear even more menacing/intimidating.  Ended up going with a well known character for a base and added some other pieces.  Had to order from multiple sellers to complete the costume.
Here is the item list:
Custom sewn Emperor Palpatine Robe, custom sewn inner grey Kimono robe, custom made Emperor Palpatine brooch, Andway skull full face protective mask-Iron color , Xelement ZG-441 black carbon leather gloves and black tall costume boots.

I will post up pictures of costume after everything arrives.

This is the first Ultrasaber I've ever seen and held.  Amazing craftsmanship, quality, bright led's (flash on clash is quite nice) and the clarity of the sound effects.

Absolutely.  The light saber feels real and the sounds effects are spot on.  I look forward to receiving all the costume parts and posting up pictures.

Wow. I wish I had a big enough pair to drop that much money on a saber.
