T O P I C R E V I E WbunnkwioMy fiancee sent me a link to this sweatsuit based on Neil Armstrong's Apollo 11 spacesuit.It's a bit pricey at $120, but it does look pretty neat.WehaveliftoffI saw a whopping $139 PLUS $25 shipping yields $164! Excessive. eBay has this for $200, ouch.I wonder if the Armstrongs get a percentage for this?Clearly ladies may enjoy this more than guys according to the sad look the model gives this uniform. SpaceyInMNThat would certainly be a unique novelty item to wear around the house on a cold winter night. I'm not too sure that I'd want to be seen in public in that, though, unless I was going to a costume party. And that pricetag is definitely "astronomical."Cliff LentzI prefer to wear my exact duplicate long johns as NEIL did!Cliff LentzI prefer to wear mu EXACT DUPLICATE long johns as NEIL did!garymilgromThe top (sweatshirt only) is offered separately for $79 plus shipping. p51 quote:Originally posted by Wehaveliftoff:I saw a whopping $139 PLUS $25 shipping yields $164! Excessive. Yikes.I wonder who would buy something like this, esepcially at that price. I'd bet most of them bought would be sold to people giving them as well-meaning gifts to a space fan who'll likelt stick it in a closet forever immediately after the gift giver leaves.TheSeaOfSpaceFor anybody that's looking for one, the original 'Armstrong' one was sold out.However, a newer one with 'Space Crew' instead of 'Armstrong' can still be found here. I was disappointed that they are no longer being sold. If anybody sees this and wants to sell theirs though, by all means contact me.
