Are you looking to do the gauntlet with straps for the right hand, and plain glove on the left?

The answer depends a bit on the price range you were looking at. You can get reasonably priced versions of the EP3-style right-hand gauntlet locally, and they are apparently not too bad - http://www.thecostumeshop.co.nz/star-wa ... ntlet.html . Would still need a plain glove for the left, I assume.

Still in the budget realm, you can also get animated/clone wars style gloves (which come with both left and right), but they are quite a simplified style - http://www.buycostumes.com/Star-Wars-Cl ... etail.aspx

Don't know for certain, but you've got just under 2 weeks from today, so you if you get on it real quick, you should get them in time (it'll depend on how much time it takes them to pack them up and get them to the post office). Might pay to do a quick online search to see if there is a source in Aus/NZ first, just in case, though.
