: : Hi,

: : Like others I've been trying to source the supplier of the
: : Wolverine biker jacket from the X-Men movie, but had no luck.
: : So, of course, I turned to good old Peter Botwright at Wested to
: : see if he could help and he said he can (Hoorah for Peter!). It, of
: : course, will only be a replica designed from various shots I've
: : supplied from the film but with Peter's/Wested's expertise I have
: : no doubt it'll be as close as dammit !!! I've noticed elsewhere on
: : the forum others speaking of having a Wolverine jacket made for
: : $400+ (hello to meltdown and Kittlemeier) but Peter is going to
: : do it for £165 (including P&P in the UK). I'll post pics if anyone is
: : interested when the job's done.

: : Also, I see a lot of you bitching about the delivery times of
: : Westeds, etc. Well, do you want it good or do you want it now!!!
: : In my dealings with Peter and his team (I have the Raiders jacket
: : and the Tom Cruise jacket from Mission:Impossible) they can't
: : seem to be able to do enough to help and their product is
: : second to none, and I'm sure you'll all agree the Wested Indy
: : jacket is superb. I salute you Peter & Co at Wested for all your
: : efforts in putting movie magic on all Indyfan backs, and wish you
: : much continued success (and a Little Nazi Monkey salute to all
: : you moaners!!!)

: : Tim

Also, several of the people on this forum have paid $400+ for a Flight Suits jacket and been much more pleased with it than their $250-280 dollar Wested, so there goes your price point. Are they all wrong too?
Cheers
