I'm totally with you on that one!

At any rate, this has come out fabulously! I'd have killed for stuff like this when I was a kid!

not to cause anxiety.. are you going to keep up with little jack's growth spurts? he looks about the age that's about to grow crazy.

Captain McCool Wed May 04, 2011 5:05 pm

I could be wrong, but it looks like most of this stuff is a tad big for the kiddo right now, so he should grow into it nicely. And the baldric at least is adjustable...

Mojo Turbo Wed May 04, 2011 6:51 pm

Yea, most of his stuff is too big as we speak. Should be able to get at least a good year out of it all - and then... new costume

Mini Boba Fett?

Wrist and Hand Extras
I didn't really think that he would wear a lot of this extra stuff. It's basically stuff from the Jack costume, but doesn't work very well for walking around Halloween or play time. The first thing are the rings:

The far left two skull rings come from the Cannibal playset and the Compass playset and the next three rings come from the new On Stranger Tides Jack Sparrow dress up, and then the last gold ring, (the flower ring) comes from the Cannibal playset.

Wow, he has nicer rings than I do!

Making a custom scabbard
(more of my journey to be just like Captain Jack Savvy... or Undead Monkey or.... Wediznutt... or whatever)

I purchased a dress up set from Target and inside it had a better sword than the one we have been using, only thing is, it didn't come with a scabbard. So I need to make one from scratch. Using mat board, I traced a wider image of the sword blade, then bent it over and retraced the opposite side and cut it out with scissors.

Then I folded the two halves together and taped them edge to edge:

mmm scabbard idea sucks... I wish I knew someone who made leather scabbards...

Sparrowed Mon May 16, 2011 8:06 pm

How about a scabbard made from a foam yoga mat? (if its thin enough)
You could paint it and hand stitch it with leather lacing. Just a thought.

Mojo Turbo Mon May 16, 2011 8:38 pm

that was my wife's idea

bugguh.... lost a concho back at Disneyland. The conchos don't screw in tight enough because of the thin pleather, so my son is getting MY Sith Camaro conchos... (and they are being glued in place)

Hah! Brilliant! I think that was the Jack I saw there a couple times. Did he have you guys sign his book?

Captain McCool Sat Sep 03, 2011 11:04 pm

Nope, nevermind. Different guy. Just checked my pics. Still, very very cool.
