Hey guys,

I working on a retro Thunderbirds costume. as in 60's version.

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a International Rescue sash patch and a IR hat patch.
Been searching for a week and all i could find is press pins.

Searched ebay and other auction sites plus some fan forums and nothing.
Well not nothing, i found a brilliant fan site (http://www.fanderson.../fanderson.html) but will only sell to members. And with membership plus the two patches it would cost me roughly $98.


So anyone know of any alternatives?

One of those custom embroidery places? Where they do baseball caps and stuff... I'm sure they'd do patches. You'd just have to supply the artwork.

Keep in mind that they charge a fee for setting up the design. The latest run of SA Fan Force patches cost $50 to set up.

Or get some of that printable iron-on transfer paper and print your own and either iron them directly on or onto something else and then applique them on.
