Ok guys, it's official: I'm doing an imperial costume. I've decided on the Tie Reserve for my first bad guy. My goal is to have it ready to go or nearly there by Appleseed and with your help I think I can get it done. I've looked over the requirements at the 501st reference page, the costume looks easy enough to put together but the devil is in the details and I don't want to order something and it turn out not to be right.

Caleb has already pointed me in the direction of the boots (imperialboots.com) and I think he had a line on gloves. Any thoughts on who to go to or stay away from for the rest of it?

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Tim

Also, this is two costumes. The TIE Reserve is virtually identical to the Imperial Crewman.
