I pressed it and could get the wrinkles out. So it was dry cleaned and pressed twice after that. The first time, they put more creases in it than when I dropped it off

:P

Expecting my shadow kit this week. Cam I ask where did you source your saber kit? Did you ever do a cape?

I'm 6'4 for reference.

There is a free version that is going to be posted this week (I hope) on the forums. You would just need to have it 3d Printed then assemble the kit. One of the great legion armorers decided to step in and help us out because so many people have been wanting one but have had a terrible time procuring them. I have a kit from Mat and it is really nice. Plus it is awesome that you just send him some money and he sends you the parts.

ohcool does the kit come with everything or would you need to buy some additional parts? Does it light up? I'm game for the free downloads but in case that doesnt happen can you let me know how I can get in touch with Matt? Does he have a site or something?

The kit I got from Nelson included the Blade and electronics. It's pretty substantial from tip to tail.

I did have to pick up PVC pipe and the connectors. Nothing overly fancy.
