Tanzan, as far as I know from discussions with Justin, he and his wife did the most part of the costume... Money won't give you that costume, only hardwork can.
In costuming, there are 3 factors:
you want it CHEAP
you want it QUICK
you want it PERFECT
you generally can choose one or two of those factors, never three. Justin definately chose PERFECTION over price and time factors.
If he chose to put more money into his costume to achieve this perfection, good to him. It is what costuming is all about - details, perfection, and how much of it you want of. Justin didn't want "a" costume, he wanted "the" costume, and he made what was necessary to achieve it.
Now, on other sides... you, me, and several others, decided that such details wouldn't be all that necessary... we placed our money elsewhere. Is Justin bad? NO.
are we bad? NO.
different views, that's all.
yet again, let anyone put the same money and time on a Jedi costume, and it wouldn't be all that accurate. Justin have the single one most accurate Anakin costume out there, so I don't think we should be money talking... his costume is priceless.
