ANOTHER SUPER SATISFIED FAN...WE SHIP GLOBALLY!

Being in the entertainment industry for over 24 years I have sought out and purchased costumes from companies all over the world. That being said when it comes to anything KISS related the best costumer on the planet is Barry Carr. I' ve purchased costumes out of Texas, Asia, and Canada and nobody I repeat NOBODY can touch him. I've heard all the stories that he rips people off that his work is crappy and I can assure you I'm sure those statements are based on jealousy. I'm not holding pom poms for Barry by no means. I ordered a Monster Gene Simmons costume from him and it took a while to get it ... and we had a few heated discussions about the costume because I bought into the shit people were saying about him. I can assure you that when the costume arrived the proof was in the pudding the construction and appearance of the costume could only be rivaled buy the original. Since receiving my costume Barry has been in contact with me about costume updates. Barry's commitment and compassion for the group KISS and their costumes is evident in every costume he makes. So if your serious about obtaining a stage quality costume you dont need to look anywhere but Kentucky. ....some people say Barry"s a little pricey but you get what you pay for and with him its A-1 Quality. Barry reproduces all the costumes from all the incarnations of the group just contact him and he can show you actual photos of the costumes ...not artist conce
ptions. If your just looking for a cheap halloween costume they're out there as Asian imports and North American costumers I've seen them come out of Texas and Canada. As a professional ETA I've purchased jumpsuits from all over the world and ive seen identical costumes one selling for a few thousand and the other for a few hundred.....and as I said earlier you get what you pay for the cheaper costume fits like coveralls and the bright work discolors almost immediately and falls apart. And the other is a professional working costume that lasts for years.

Shane believed...And Barry did not disappoint!!!!

I received my Gene Simmons Love Gun/Creatures boots this week and to say I'm impressed is an understatement. The boots are sturdy, well put together and look simply amazing. Barry has taken his time to build these boots correctly and his craftsmanship shows in the quality. I would rather patiently wait for a great product than to get a quick, cheap knock off from a second-rate site or costume builder. I cannot wait to receive the remainder of my Gene Simmons Creatures of the Night armor.

Winston had a Sonic experience






YES, I'm very satisfied with the work of Barry Carr. Let me start from the beginning. I'm sure I'm like everyone else that has ever ordered a kiss costume. Back in 1976 I saw my first Kiss concert at the old Capital Center in Washington DC and it forever change my life. Following them for over 40 years now I decided I had to have the best memorabilia item possible and that was a Gene Simmons costume. I talked to a friend of mine who had some costume work done and he told me that it was Barry Carr so I went on the Internet to check out his work. I was amazed by his quality and detail of every piece that he does. I decided to give him a call , this was in October, and I told him that I love the sonic boom outfit and he said that was no problem for him to do. He gave me a complete price for the outfit and said that he would work with me anyway possible so we set up a monthly payment plan that we both agreed upon. He stated as we went along he would send me updates and photo on the work and that is exactly what he did. Everything he told me in the emails or on the phone is just what he delivered. After all the payments were made in April the costume arrived and it was even better than I expected. I later saw on the Internet some negative remarks about Barry Carr and I couldn't understand it it was totally opposite from what I experience the whole process went very smooth with no problems whatsoever I would highly recommend Barry Carr to do your costume and not be a bit afraid of his work. Thank you Barry!!
