Costume company to reduce number of people at Dimension Jump in gingham...
Forgot to put the link from TOS to the comapny so here it is:

>Interestingly they seem to have chosen to go with the series I costumes for Rimmer and Lister.
I wonder if, as far as the Lister costume goes, the reason they didn’t go with his ‘classic’ leathers is because they’re covered in various patches and badges which would each need to be cleared for mass production.
I heard of a similar type of story recently where there were plans to release a 1:1 scale Ghostbusters proton pack, but it too was covered with tiny, little stickers and other trademarked items, so the project was shelved. Also, I think another company had the rights to make GB costumes (as opposed to replica props), so technically, the pack would’ve had to have been released ‘non-wearable’ (i.e. without any straps, etc).
Shame, really. I wouldn’t be surprised if the packs in the new film are redesigned just enough to allow for a future release.
Would still love to get my hands on a replica Rimmer badge & ‘H’ box set, though.

It’s possible. In the case of Lister I’d also venture that it’s a damn sight easier to do that costume than the others. Rimmer less so but if your doing Lister in series I costume I guess it makes sense to do Rimmer that way too. I’m surprised there’s no mention of an H to be honest.

Good point! I must admit, it’d be difficult to release a wearable H unless they came in packs of ten, or something. The glue would never last, surely.
…Does Cats outfit come with roller-skates?
I’m gonna practice my “courting” on Mrs Ori!!
I like how when you click the images on that site to display a full size, you actually get an image smaller than the original. Heh.
I’m easily amused.

Either this has passed everyone by or nobody cares, but seeing as it was announced nearly 2 weeks ago it seems odd no one has mentioned it.
Interestingly they seem to have chosen to go with the series I costumes for Rimmer and Lister.
Costume breakdowns:
Lister - cargo pants, t-shirt, shirt and hat
Rimmer - cargo pants, embroidered shirt and tie
Cat - 3/4 length zebra print faux fur coat, wig and pair of fangs
Kryten - full printed suit and headpiece
