You can find how to buy your missing items by going to the screen where you want to level up the character. It will list want items you have and what you need. Below that it should have a "Buy" button. When you click that it will tell you how many gems it will cost to purchase the missing items. You have to click again to commit to buy the missing stuff so it can't hurt to check by clicking the first "Buy" button.

THANKS! I saw the 'buy' button at the bottom (for other characters), but was afraid of testing it out in case it automatically took the gems without telling me first how many. I'll need to finish my battles with Hans before I even have the option of finding out how many gems he will cost me. And I may need to spend some gems to speed up the battles... but I want to figure out the best balance of where & when to spend those gems. The last thing I want to do is burn through all my gems and still end up short of getting Hans.
Because I have all the snowflakes I'll need, I would just need the 8 swords and 8 ears/hats. Someone in the thread above said that the 8 swords + 8 ears + hats + 1 snowflake was going to cost 499 gems. And another comment mentioned that 2 swords would cost 64 gems, which leads me to conclude that each sword is 32 (or 256 gems for the 8 swords). If I spend gems speeding up the battles (so that they finish, say, around 8:30 tonight), I'll drop down to just over 400 gems which still isn't enough to buy all the items, but would give me time to try to earn some of them in the quests. I'm still trying to decide what I should try to do....!

Everything was going fine until I had to spend a week without internet access, which delayed me by several days when it came to getting Elsa and building her ice palace.
