I never in 1 million years ever thought
I would get a KISS costume like this. I am not artistically talented
enough to make my own and after doing some research I came across
Barry Carr via facebook. I was a little hesitant because I could not
figure out how anyone could take this short, stocky guy (giving
myself a little slack) and make a Gene Simmons Demon costume that
didn’t look like a dime store knock off. I decided to contact Barry
and he responded quickly. We discussed my issues and decided Sonic
Boom era would be best. Barry sent me a huge list of measurements,
like I had never seen before, so I knew he was serious about his
craft. We also reviewed payment options, etc. prior to starting the
project. Barry was extremely knowledgeable and up front about his
policies. We spoke many time during the course of the costume,
unfortunately there were several delays but Barry notified about each
one and why, all of which were valid, I really enjoyed talking to him
he is a living KISS encyclopedia. Finally I got my costume in two
parts: first came the boots. WOW it was the coolest feeling to walk
in those, later the armor came. Unfortunately there was minor damage
due to shipping. I contacted Barry and the issue was immediately
rectified. He was also nice enough to tell me how to maintain the
costume. I was extremely pleased, no wait EXCITED LIKE A KISS ON
CHRISTMAS, when I put on the whole costume its AWESOME!!!! I felt
just like the Demon. Thank you Barry I hope my wife let me get
another costume soon!
