    You could try asking Michael if he can do a 1:6 scale version of his Marine armour Or asking this guy if he could scale his PR model up There's a few 1:6 scale PR models on Shapeways (but that's not cheap) - Chez Mati and PaulElderDesign for eg.

    Or $200-$300 for an airsoft one... Or a 3d printed one for as much as you want to pay... Airsoft all the way for me (I've currently two); that said, I am slooowly building a hero live fire.

    Very rarely on ebay, and for bazillions of dollars :( There are a few 3d models of the armour around. I'd recommend Michael's over on CGI Trader (I'm sure I'd scale it down for you if required, too).

    Good find FlyAndFight. I ordered a test swatch of his 1:1 scale USCM camo in "Basic Cotton Ultra" waaay back in 2016 [not actually done anything with it]. Can't say I know much about fabrics but I'm happy to hunt the swatch out and "layman's eye" compare it to the Hot Toys BDUs, if that's...
