I just listed my space suit replica on eBay. This is a one-of-a-kind, museum quality replica of Neil Armstrong’s A7L Apollo 11 Space Suit. The suit is replicated in the intravehicular configuration worn at launch, with a clear bubble helmet and black rubber gloves. It does NOT include the extravehicular components (LEVA, PLSS backpack, RCU, or lunar boots and gloves). The suit is weathered to look like a real piece of space hardware, with simulated lunar dust and stains like the original suit. This suit was painstakingly researched and constructed by me. There has never been a more accurate replica of this suit sold on ebay to my knowledge. It is my prototype suit, so the opening bid is less than any suit I will offer in the future. |

Whatever that brings, it will be worth it to someone who admires your work. Hope it goes very well for you Ryan  It's fantastic... you taught me something about the Snoopy Cap. I had NO idea the side panels looked like that. Just magnificent. May it go to a good home. |

I agree with the comments above! That is a piece of art! Good luck! Wish I could win the lottery — I might afford it then.  | |
