Well I finally got this and I must say I am very impressed with the quality! They only come in large, which kinda a small large, but it makes it fit snug which helps a lot to fit the actual look. Although I prefer a slightly more baggier shirt just in case I have to wear clothes underneath. It fits almost too perfectly, and the sleeves were only a tad long, and I cut them down in half and began weathering the rest of the sweater as well. I must say it is very nerve-wracking cutting up a $125 dollar sweater that is this nice, and this heavy material.However for $185 I figured I may as well weather it myself as I am pretty used to doing it by now due to making about 6 Jason costumes. The material is so good that it will not keep ripping down like some cheaper material thankfully, so I made short cuts and just pulled about until it stopped, as I did not want the cuts to keep going. But the material is very thick and is great for cutting! I sort of emulated the cuts on the part 5 weathered version of DMC's, but made the cuts a little less patternized. I also did not want to go too far down with the collar just in case the mask I get is shorter, and the collar helps keep it tucked in.The only downside to weathering yourself is finding a thousand little red and green balls all over the place when you thought you cleaned them all up. I still dark blue ones around from my Jason costumes. I will use this to also make a display eventually for after Halloween to keep the spirit going. Maybe I will post pics again. Although my life-sized Jason is a little tall to be Freddy, so maybe I will dress him back up as Jason and I will be Freddy being I am about 5' 10" and he is 6' 4" But yeah whoever said I would not be disappointed was right. Fantastic sweater, and I love the brighter colors as they show better at night than the darker Rubies one which looks a little more like the VS one. I hope DMC makes a VS one day. Now I need to get my silicone, a few of DMC's masks, a hand from Suckface, and a glove from knifegloves and maybe allthingsevil, and I should be set for awhile! <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" />I will begin doing the pait weathering later, but not too much as I want to keep this kinda bright. Thanks to all for pointing me in the direction of these after I searched all the posts, pm's, and asked questions. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />
