My son is a larger 5 year old and normally wears size 6.  After reading the reviews I decided to take a chance on this suit labeled size 8-10.  When I got home from work he was wearing it and it fit him perfectly.  The suit looks like the picture and is made of very thin fabric, which is typical for a costume int his price range.  The head piece is only a face mask with a strap that goes around the back of his head to keep it in place.  It looks decent and he says it is easy to see out of.  The cape is the same material as the suit. I don't think it would last through more than a wash or two so after halloween it will hang on the wall with the few other costumes he likes to use for playtime.  I bought the Star Wars Ultimate Darth Vader FX Lightsaber and the child size darth vador gloves to go with the costume and I must say that he looks really good in it.  He is very happy with the look and so am I.
