nivremis Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 I'm looking to get a bunch of custom capes done up, was wondering if anyone can recommend a seller who will do basic printing at a non-wallet-busting price? Otherwise I'd probably end up getting plain white capes at about 50 cents each (BORING!!) Thanks! Quote
JopieK Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 I'm looking for the raw material. It seems to be that there is a supplier in Australia that does the job! My printing supplier can't seem to find the correct material as I'm not satisfied with their samples. Quote
Wardancer Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) Cape Madness would be a try. I like them a lot, I have equipped many figs with their capes. On their store site, they give examples for custom prints: https://www.bricklin...asp?p=dingraham PS: I especially recommend their metallic capes, some of which can be seen if you click on the "Elvnoi Dozor" link in my signature.

My printing supplier can't seem to find the correct material as I'm not satisfied with their samples. Are you saying that there's a supplier who does cape printing or a material supplier? I'm in Australia as well, and a local producer might be exactly what I need. Cape Madness would be a try. I like them a lot, I have equipped many figs with their capes. I had a good hard look at their stuff as well, and while the quality looks great I do think they're a little pricy - I'm thinking about somewhere in the region of 50 odd capes and hoping for something slightly cheaper xD Quote
JopieK Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 I don't know the supplier, but would be very interested... heard somebody talk about it. We have a printer that can do the job including cutting, but not the right material until now (unless someone can help me where to get the raw material ;)) Quote
Wardancer Posted January 5, 2014 Posted January 5, 2014 How much does Capemadmess charge for custom printed capes? The price for the capes themselves I regarded as quite fair. Quote
KingPixels Posted January 5, 2014 Posted January 5, 2014 This guy print capes, and he's usually open to special requests, I'd recommend you shoot him an email and see what he says. http://www.capes4minifigs.com Quote

Placed another order there last week, but no flags. Quote

JopieK Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 thanks for the suggestion, but I might overlook it, but I can't see the kind of materials. My print supplier (vinyl, transfer material, ink, etc), has a whole lot of stuff (material for flags etc. etc.), but not the material for LEGO capes. The only thing I could think of is screen curtains that are used for windows, that is very close I think. Quote
RoyalBrickCustoms Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 I run a custom capes shop on Bricklink similar to CapeMadness! We mostly specialize in custom castle fabric accessories, but could do Star Wars orders as well! http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=RBCustoms Quote
