: Where on Earth can you find parts of Obi-Wan's costume?? I mean, the Indy costume I can see as it's just really cool versions of regular clothes, but where can you get Obi-Wan's? The only thing I've seen was the Jedi robe offered in the last Jawa Trader, but I'm a little wary of their "official reproductions", being the owner of the Luke Bespin jacket, which ain't that great (all the stitchings are coming out and I hardly ever wore it!), and the "official" $36 Indy hat, which, while it's a good hat (it's comfy and put up with a lot of abuse so far) for such a low price (it was all I could afford!), it just doesn't look like the real thing. Well, I'd be interested in any info.
