Yes, we do have a sizing chart for you to help determine your size!
We use many FX options ranging mostly from high end acrylics, stains, sealants, fabric and light spray paints to professional grade fabric safe blood FX and various gel FX to get the precise, accurate and desired effect on each costume. We are not responsible for any allergies or skin sensitivities to the costumes and we always recommend wearing undershirts for a comfortable, breathable fit.
*Due to our volume we will no longer have ANY definitive, individual and specific set deadline dates available for ANY orders of ANY kind UNLESS its specifically discussed and agreed to by both parties PRIOR to ordering.* Orders placed during our our 2 primary 2024 seasonal windows heading into our HIGH SEASON / Feb.1st and beyond (1st larger 2 week main window…mid Feb. 2024 and a 2nd slightly shorter 10 day window…early to mid April 2024 ) will require, on average, a 16-20 week production time. This time frame, again, is an approximate estimate and NOT a guarantee due to high order volume. We, as always, will reach out via phone contact or email prior to shipping to confirm destination. The 1st larger window (mid Feb.) block of orders taken will BEGIN to ship late May early June (or sooner if applicable) and into the summer months. We will contact you during the process ONLY as needed and prior to shipping to confirm destination and product pics. The smaller April window of orders will BEGIN to ship late/ August and into September. Prop orders, now offered year round, have a significantly shorter production time at approximately a 6-8 week time frame. Ready to Ship items will have a 48-72 hr. turnaround to ship. Custom work requests are always welcome and will require consultation to determine production time frames needed based on concept and detail. ***Please note: Once again, if work is needed at a specific time frame or needed earlier other than the stated production times please contact us prior to ordering. We do NOT offer refunds of ANY kind due to “misunderstandings”of time frames offered.*** * Based on previous seasons our current turn around time frames are anticipated estimates. In some instances your completion time could take longer (or shorter) than normal due to possible supply chain shortages and/or delays in materials. Additionally due to our our level of professional detail large multi-orders and/or custom work may require longer production times than stated regardless of season. Contact us PRIOR to ordering with any questions in regards to custom requested shipping dates. Prior to shipping, we will notify you via email and/or phone contact of the actual shipping date and to re-confirm the shipping d
