Of course the humans in that story wearing them are not the regular show's cast but Erak, Zake, Krans, Roth and Vural. If not MB3 suits then perhaps items by the same designer?Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01906649879585791348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253387388436808262.post-52747905384281552502019-01-14T15:10:27.390-08:002019-01-14T15:10:27.390-08:00Steve

There are so e problems with this when you study the construction as a seamstress...but they look very similar. If they are not Moonbase 3 suits, for a series like Dr Who, that was always short on money these Green items must if come from somewhere.<br /><br />That said I am pretty certain the remains of a Moonbase 3 suit makes it into a Peter Davison storyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05357561941828325601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253387388436808262.post-34676001022593171532015-06-21T17:16:22.307-07:002015-06-21T17:16:22.307-07:00I might very well be open to that idea.

This is exact...What an absolute star you are, Sir. This is exactly the kind of comment I hoped I would get, referencing some proper Air Force facts and pictures. The whole G-suit thing didn't seem quite right, to me. I could see the cooling side of the design but not the pressure element. These suits seemed far to loose fitting and thin to deal with pressure effectively. I knew someone would come to my rescue and I will be updating later.

I've seen the untreated images of your muse in that outfit but that adds another layer - congrats..<br />That said you can't go wrong spraying a few hoover hoses silver, a bit of old circuit board and some stick on LED's from the pound shop and you've got an authentic looking retro cyberman outfit right there!<br />Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01906649879585791348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253387388436808262.post-89151847170146140072015-06-18T08:09:48.833-07:002015-06-18T08:09:48.833-07:00My take on the cybermen....more pvc than flight su...My take on the cybermen....more pvc than flight suit though ;) Superb posts, keep up the great work :)<br /><br />https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1098/1070887004_1a4c4bf28d_b.jpgTraveller28https://www.blogger.com/profile/14986863969022733361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253387388436808262.post-9091519135536140612015-06-17T13:01:07.396-07:002015-06-17T13:01:07.396-07:00I've enjoyed delving into this particular thre...I've enjoyed delving into this particular thread.<br />Of course some of the appearances may be the actual same suit. It's not a huge leap to presume the Bowie and Bush video costumes where picked up at an industry costume hire and that the Alien ones may well have ended up going into the costume hire and rented out the year before. I'll bet they pop up in some other places as well. the search and research goes on. And a very bug thank you for the compliments.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01906649879585791348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253387388436808262.post-74156977096216119312015-06-17T08:53:30.329-07:002015-06-17T08:53:30.329-07:00I have always wondered about the outfits that the ...I have always wondered about the outfits that the actors worn in the television show, and thanks to your peerless research, I now know.
