    Basically I'm wondering if the Rubies Supreme Edition Boba Fett costume is actually any good and worth the money or whether there are any other better licensed costumes I don't know about. Secondly does anyone know of a good, reliable site I can purchase one from. I'm from the UK so I have to worry about shipping costs and am a bit wary trusting overseas sites when I've never dealt with them before, especially for something this expensive. Plus not all sites are willing or able to ship overseas so I need one that is.

    Lastly, the Imperial March has just started playing on my computer without any sort of music program being open. And all I've got open are eBay, Amazon and StarWarshop. Does StarWars.com start playing star wars music if you leave any page on the site open for long enough. Freaky.

    It's safe to say that when asking the question, "Is the Rubies [anything] costume any good?" the answer will universally be, "NOPE." They are cheaply made, inaccurate, and ill-fitting more often than not. I would recommend saving the money and investing in a good Mando costume. It'll cost more, but the end result is more than worth it.

    You would be better off getting the Rubies Jango 2-piece helmet. It was around $35 USD + shipping charges. These helmets are acceptable to use for the Mandalorian Mercs Costuming Club, and they look a lot better than that crappy Boba bucket.

    If you are doing a Mando costume, I would suggest hitting the Mando Mercs, or The Dented Helmet websites.

    Music might be part of the ebay listing. Some people do that as an attention getter and general nuisance.
