Die Hard Tony Costume

Now I Have A Machine Gun Ho-ho-ho Shirt

Ho-ho-ho Shirt

This shirt is a replica of that worn by “Tony”, one of the bad guys, during the Die Hard movie. Of course when we first see Tony his shirt is plain grey, no writing, no blood, just gray. The plain version very much reflected Tony’s attitude to life: serious, functional, pretty boring really. With a flourish of the red pen (or is it blood?) John raises Tony’s dress style from gormless to grafiti genius.

Spectacles

Spectacles

Until Tony meets John McClane, we see him sporting a pair of large, gold rimmed spectacles. Once a fight breaks out between the two, Tony’s glasses are sent flying. By the time McClane places a santa hat upon Tony’s head and wheels him into the lift, Tony’s spectables are lost. Whilst they are not an essential part of Tony’s costume, they add a great touch of authenticity to your ensemble and resemble closely those spectacles worn by Tony.

Sweat pants

Sweat Pants

Not every one in Hans Gruber’s hit squad came dressed for the gym. Hans had his suit, Theo was very smart casual, yet both Tony and his brother Karl, came dressed for action. It was just as well that Tony came in pants that were well designed for training, given the work out he had fighting off John McClane. A fall down a steep set of stairs left his jogger trousers intact and still looking smart. It’s a pity we could not say the same about Tony.

The fabric is soft, hardwearing and comfortable. Two side pockets and one back pocket provide a useful place to stash all Tony’s necessary accessories, such as his fake ID and Zippo lighter.

Machine Gun

Machine Gun

When Tony stepped off the elevator on the 32nd floor of the Nakatomi building, his intention was clear: to eliminate the interloper who had alerted the authorities by setting off the fire alarm. Tony had a sub-machine gun where as John McClane just had his service pistol. The odds were not good. Fortunately, John McClane always rises to a challenge. It wasn’t long before Tony’s lifeless body was slumped in a lift while John became the owner of his shiny new machine gun.

Now you have a machine gun. Ho-Ho-Ho

When putting together a Die Hard Tony costume it is a great idea to add a prop machine gun. This particular one make s the sound of gunfire when the trigger is depressed. The USA version also has flashing lights. This makes a great prop to go with your costume. It’s a good size, it looks the part and you are going to have a lot of fun portraying this character.

Description

This black toy machine gun is made from plastic. Squeeze the trigger and the gun will make exciting shooting sounds. The USA gun is 30 inches approximately in Length while the UK gun measures 55cm. Either of these two machine guns would make a great prop as part of a costume.

Tony Vreski

Tony Vreski is a character brought to life by Andreas Wisniewski, in the 1988 iconic movie, Die Hard.

He and his brother Karl Vreski are part of an elite gang of robbers who plan to steal 640 million dollars from the Nakatomi Corporation, fake their own deaths and then escape. Their plan is precise and its execution is professionally carried out. The one aspect they could not have anticipated is the arrival of an off duty New York police officer, John McClane.

John calls the cops

While the bad guys storm the party taking hostages, cutting communication lines and blocking lifts and escalators between floors, officer McClane escapes to an upper floor via a stairwell. Anxious to signal for help, he activates the sprinkler system which he knows will alert the fire services. The leader of the group, Hans Gruber, easily thwarts John’s rescue attempt by resetting the alarm and dispatching the fire services. Now John has revealed his presence and location, Gruber sends Tony Vreski up to the 32nd floor to deal with the interloper.

Hunter Killer

When Tony arrives on the top floor he is not expecting to find a capable New York cop. The assumption is that the unwelcome guest is a hapless security guard who is out of his depth against these ruthless killers. Even when McClane presses a gun to Tony’s face and orders him to surrender, Tony is not intimidated. He mocks him, saying “You won’t hurt me…because you are a policeman…there are rules for policemen”. A fight ensues, culminating in the pair falling down a flight of stairs. Tony lands awkwardly, breaking his neck on impact.

Send them a message

What happens next provides an iconic scene in the film. John places Tony’s body on a swivel chair inside the only working lift. Intent on sending a “message” to the bad guys, he puts a santa hat on Tony’s head and writes the words “Now I have a machine gun. Ho-Ho-Ho, on Tony’s sweater. He sends the lift down to the floor where the perpetrators are gathered, stealthily hiding on top of the lift so he can observe his adversaries.

Now I have a machine gun. Ho-Ho-Ho

This is a pivotal moment in the movie with consequences that shape the rest of the film. Firstly it marks John McClane’s first kill, sending a clear message to the other 12 bad guys that they are vulnerable and have resistance. The sinister, mocking placement of Tony’s body indicates to Hans Gruber that this interloper is far more resourceful and dangerous than any off duty security guard. Lastly, when news of Tony’s demise reaches his brother, Karl, played by former Bolshoi ballet principal dancer, Alexander Gudonov, Karl embarks on a personal vendetta to capture and kill John McClane.
