I LOVE, absolutely LOVE those lever action pistols!

Great detail, this stuff must have taken a lot of work.

All the outfits were neat, Vader’s and Boba’s were insanely good.

+1 to the guy who mentioned “Briscoe County Jr” a show that was quite ahead of its time. Also a show from the 1980s called “Q.E.D.”

Oh and the “Wild Wild West” movie which was totally panned at the time it came out but seems to have been about 10 years ahead of it’s time in production design.

Not gonna lie, if these folks decided to do an entire steampunk remake of Star Wars, I would watch the shit out of it.

Steampunk = Dr.Who and other B-class (not badass) british sci-fi junk from the 60′s. Some of the stuff is nice aesthetically but nothing new. Whatever rocks your boat, to each his own, live and let live and all that. I prefer these nerds make cool stuff than build incendiary devices. Peace out

When I first saw the gold guy, I thought it was 3PO right away. But on closer inspection, he’s pretty heavily armed, and no amount of artistic license can explain 3PO packin’ heat.

@phillydrifter i hate to geek out here (actually, that’s a lie, i LOVE to geek out) have you not heard of hyperdrive? FASTER than light speed, and not just a little!! Oh yea, there’s something else you might not have heard of. SCIENCE FICTION. jeez. They also ignore space physics, but they would be pretty shitty movies without sound and lasers.

anyway, im not a huge fan of steampunk- but i can definitely appreciate the creativity and work that went into these costumes. I LOVE the revision of Leia’s Slave Outfit. It gets pretty boring seeing thousands of semi-attractive girls doing the same leia thing all the time. Han’s kinda cool, but i feel like hes personality’s been altered by the costume- and Han’s just… Han. and you know what? I don’t think that gold guy is C3PO, despite how good his costume is. oh well.

Wonderful Pics though!!

@ Philly

Can you show us on this Luke Skywalker 12″ collectible action figure where George touched you? Was it in your naughty area?

Seriously, I agree with a few of the things you said and even still you come off as a whiny bitch.

I love steampunk but anyone who’s a fan of Star Wars needs to be beat upside the head, you morons don’t realize that Lucas took the entire world for a ride and milked it for every cent he could.

Ignoring the hugely mind-boggling distances between not just stars but entire galaxies, he refused to release his movies on DVD, making sure everyone bought inferior VHS tapes… oh and then he releases them on DVD so everyone can upgrade.

And the prequels absolutely blew, they ruined the entire franchise. Why bring retarded religion into it AT ALL?! “Oh Anikan had no father!” How religitarded of him.
