After 14 years of producing WB/DC merchandise it was time to move on to new products, characters and franchises. KISS is at the top of our products list now. :)

Yes, already working on them

It's all there. Torso, Wings, Bodysuit, Cod Piece and Boots. All are available at www.KISSreplicas.com

Correct! By the time RAROver came to be the collars and back parts were larger. Larger collars broadened the shoulders. Then the biceps needed to be reseamed as they started coming apart on the front vertical seams. Several changes happened there. :)

Considering that we're the ones that made Gene's EOTR Armor yes, absolutely yes to all 4 as well. Not just Gene.

@@KISSreplicas i look forward to that.

I'm glad you think our official costumes look great. They're actual 'Stage Replicas' as opposed to your average fancy dress Halloween type costume. That said we do offer a 3 month payment plan if that can help in any way.

One of our favorites! Gene's LICK IT UP Leather Vest. We offer them at www.KISSreplicas.com

:) :) :)

Thank you so much!

Thank you! Cheers!

Epic response bud!!

@@KISSreplicas maybe one day we cross paths again. been so long. with kiss done with touring i would love to see a indy expo again.

You can bet on it at the next KISS Expo!!! Will be great to see you guys again.

Yes they are still available, and they're very close to selling out. Not a re issue. Limited sizes by design are left from the original release.

3 Different types of composite materials. All ranging from hard to firm and soft.

Sometimes yes. On the shorter ones a soldering gun can sometimes work because the heat doesn't have to travel too far. That said the 'Female' bolt side does not have a slit for a screwdriver so force can't be applied to it to open it. That's why the cutting wheel is the fastest way to go. And that's the other thing, it can take up to 10 min with a soldering gun to heat it up enough to loosen the Loctite. That's why our way is the fastest and most effective.

We're talking about hammer rivets, which are weak and finnicky at best when used correctly. They're made from thin soft metal, easily bend, distort and just don't hold well....And they're usually a few dollars for hundreds. They're cheap on the wallet because they're a cheap solution over all. They just don't work well or offer any mid to long term support for this kind of heavy duty armor....but work wonderfully on craft foam projects or vac formed ABS and that sort of thing.

I think they are better than any soft or 2 piece barb rivets for all the reasons listed in the video (and the response above)... Plus these screws can be fastened in odd orientations without any need to line up a mandrel and hammer/press/press tool (if there's even room for the press tool) for installation, another important advantage is getting the perfect torque/clamping pressure required every time the first time... Those rivets certainly have their place, but for heavy duty strength, and assembling custom oddly shaped rigid objects like this certainly isn't one of them in my opinion...

​@@KISSreplicas Sounds like you don't know how to properly hammer a rivet.

@skoronesa How would you hammer a rivet into a structure that on one side is on a 3/4 bevel and the other is on a 90 degree? With washers in between? And you can't lay them flat on the table. Even if you could how would you line up the rivets in a way that proper vertical direction and pressure can be applied without them bending and breaking? The answer is you can't. For these purposes our system is far superior. There's nothing wrong with rivets, but this is not the correct use for them. Also they're easier to swap out if the need were to arise....which was the point of this video tutorial. I'm not sure why you're so hung up on the fact that we don't use rivets when Chicago Screws are far more efficient, stronger and can guarantee a lock far greater than a rivet ever could. Which by the way we manufacture motorcycle wear and commonly use rivets there by the thousands so yes, we know how to hammer a rivet or should I say we know how to use a vertical press. :)

​@KISSreplicas what's the benefit of this over a rivet gun?

Yes, we offer the boots.
