lost boys MARKO jacket replica!

I’ve been trying to pick up this project again and I got my hands on a leopard (wrong facing but I dont mind, though im a little apprehensive to cut it up haha) and I’ve found some matadors on ebay I think but im having a hard time finding a correct peacock, has anyone seen any lately or good alternatives? I’ve only been able
to find blue ones.
 
Maybe the next major Lost Boys event you go to consider bumping it up even another notch with a vampire brow. Make sure the prosthetic is "foam latex" and do NOT use spirit gum, use medical grade adhesive such as Pros-Aide and blend the edges with liquid latex.

I wanted to wear the vampire brow so bad, but I ran out of time trying to find one before the convention! I will definitely get one for next time.
 
I almost forgot to post that we have a new member to join the elite ranks of the RPF Lost Boys Marko jacket Wall of Fame on page 41. Congratulations Sadie, your hard work and determination paid off. This is a project that scares off even the most seasoned replica costume maker, so kudos to you. There are some members that have been working on theirs for years and still haven't finished. Yeah you know who you are, shame on you! LOL just kidding;)

How was your communication with them? They don't pick up up the phone. It also appears that you have to set up an account with this company too.
I was purchasing from the UK to a USA address and made an account to make a purchase, when I made the purchased I emailed them for more photos which they are the ones they sent and I got the item so everything is fine, I've now got the lures.

Ok cool. Decided not to purchase. I had to open up a new account to get the shipping cost which was over $26.00. No thank you.(n)

Mine cost 7.48 USD for the items and a flat rate shipping fee of 5 USD but because it was a low order amount they applied 8 USD so it was 20.48 USD for 2 lures
 
The lighter green color is usually referred to as "Chartreuse".
I've heard of that name before. Fancy isn't it?
I was hoping to hear back from one of the companies selling the iced blue speckled orange one. My jacket's like over 99% finished. This is the only missing item.
If I don't hear back I will have to purchase a pink/blue one instead.

Long time no post. Recently scored a couple of amazing finds and wanted to share. Also mostly got my first jacket finished for Halloween last year. I was really rushing to put pieces on it, but it was presentable along with the boots and the wig and everything. I was happy so far with it. I was able to score a couple of really nice patches as well as getting a redone chainstitch Ghost Rider patch thanks to Rusty85.
Found a Screw U patch, 1903 patch, The Skull and Anarchy full sheet, an incorrect border Snake Lady and my premier piece...A real Cleopatra. I'm still speechless holding this thing and looking at it in person. I haven't got all the correct pieces yet for an authentic size marko jacket, but I'm slowly looking while looking forward to this Halloween. I am also in the process of making completely new more authentic, non-worn versions of the squid lures that resemble their colors in the 1980s.

Been lurking again for a while. Just wanted to update everybody on what I have been getting into. I hit a good spree recently. Also whenever I do decide to use the Cleopatra I will be giving my extras to anyone who wants them. Always been super thankful to everyone on this forum that helped me and continues to help others!!
