Time to bust out the super glue fellas. 
Based on that pic I think the pants could use a little bit more of shortening.

Not sure how I feel about that either...
Absolutely...

Not funny
You might be right, although with the suit buttoned up it wouldn't be an issue.
Kato, can't at least the top button be made functional? It really is essential...and something that should have been addressed earlier on if it is not possible.
I think we have to stick to our guns here, it's a lot of money on the table and we are all thrilled with the result and grateful for Kato agreeing to get us this... But a button up is absolutely essential to Don Drapers character, it's more formal, all of the men in the office button up except for maybe they are drinking or in a more casual setting.
I know the logistical problem with having the jacket close, the in scale buttons are not enough to hold... Obviously we dont want a snap. My solution is my favorite solution for this kind of thing... Sewing or gluing in tiny thin magnets! I've replaced so many ugly snaps on 1/6 suits with this method and I love it, before I did it displaying the blitzway scarface with his jacket open was not an option.

Completely agree ray, hopefully Kato is willing to find a solution for this.
No problem! It will as same as MIB suit
Pls ntd either buttoned up or non buttoned up will be available due to the non existing of nice real 1:6 button hole

I don't understand, so it will be able to be buttoned up, just not with a working button hole? Will it use a magnet like ray suggested? If I have to choose between buttoned and not buttoned for the button placement, I choose buttoned.

It is basically not possible to make nice looking/perfect 1:6 button hole so far.
. Yes, I will use the magnet for closure
It looks beautiful, Kato. For this emblematic figure from a show that is all about style, it is just beautiful.

I understand, great news!
so we have to choose open or closed for the placement of the top button, right? Because if its closed it will need to be sewn on the other side of the jacket?
I understand, great news!
U r right!
