The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

The soft armor on screen was the smart gunners flack jacket. As for your own costume up to yourself just remember the more you go away from the onscreen armor the less likely anyone is going to k ow who you are supposed to be.

I went to Dragon Con back in 2008 and even back then, unless we had an Alien with us, people would either ask us who we were, or were heard to say things like "hey, Starship Troopers!" etc. so I'd definitely agree with what Stew says.

I concur, as a pilot I'm rocking the flak jacket too but unless I am with ground pounders or xenos most people don't get the pilot costume. It's just too generic.
