M-65/ Rambo/ Taxi Driver jacket for 8 inch Mego???

Does any other company produce an M-65 jacket in Mego scale?

I know one came with the Diamond Select retro Punisher set years ago.. but those are much coveted items...

Yeah that's always a tough matter, got a similar project for a BBP BBT-Bernadette figure, bought the regular one because the ST uniform version got expensive.

My plan is to get an Uhura costume and strip out the threads to make a pattern from it so I can make any color of uniform. Some dye similar clothes to avoid sewing but hard to get one that doesn't bleed like crazy often. Probably could use more Mego clothes patterns in general shared since vendors can't make everything. Wonder if it's possible to get the pattern from the Diamond Select clothing designer?

I used a coat from a Welcome Back Kotter Horshack. I assume those are still pretty cheap.

Yeah still relatively cheap for it's age, pretty good coat. Does the Sweat Hogs decal come off easily?

Man... wouldn't it be great if CTVT released one as part of their military pieces?

Would make things easier for me anyway...

Along with a darker blue denim jacket...

So, I'm considering buying a CTVT Airforce jacket and using a fabric marker to color it a darker green.

Does anyone have experience in using fabric markers? Do the colors run at all?

Not sure it would save money but Neca Jaws set Quint's jacket looks good.

That it would, unfortunately, the shirt is sewn into it.

I'd really love to have some of those gloved hands for my Invisible Man figure. If the jacket and shirt are sewn together, it would probably be really easy to separate them.

Maybe a playing mantis AJ Army Ranger?

I looked into those, the jacket that came with Mantis's AJ is shorter then an M-65.
