Comments about Lillian Vernon Recon Commando Costume & Accessories:

My son loves this custome and he plays with it all the time. The design is unique and it looks good when it is on. Unfortunately, the construction is poor. The seam busted on the right armpit area and I had to saw it back on. All in all I was pretty happy with it.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Recon Commando Costume & Accessories:

THe helmet was awesome. Sturdy and realistic looking. My 7 year old loves it! The goggles are cool too. The costume is a pretty thin cheesy fabric but he doesn't care after he saw the helmet! The knife was also a huge hit!

Was far from impressive

Comments about Lillian Vernon Recon Commando Costume & Accessories:

I was very disappointed in how poorly and cheaply the costume was made. For the amount of money you would expect the costume to be made of higher quality material and that the construction would withstand the age group attended. My son complains that the mask piece keeps coming undone with only a little piece of the velcro expected to hold it in place. I as a consumer and mother would not recommend this product, however, my five year old thinks it is the coolest costume on the face of this earth, this year.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Recon Commando Costume & Accessories:

My 8 year old son really wanted this costume. It's cheap. The helmet was falling apart when we finally got it. The whole mask is designed poorly. The price was way too high for such cheap construction. He wanted it so much that I kept it, but will make changes on my own.
