Batman's Costume: Ever be Blue & Grey Again?

[EdwardNashton1]

He should be all black like the movies and have lot's of armor since that's the most realistic.

Yeah, I think the Batman Begins suit was probably one of the best suits for looks AND functionality.

Disagree completely. Functionality and practicality go to the TDK suit as far as movie bats. Scariest is subjective.

I love the look of the Begins suit but it looks completely impractical, TDK, not so much, but it looks more like functional body armour.

My favorite suit is Michael Keaton's. The yellow Batman symbol on the chest looks really great.

A Hot Toys Batman with a blue/black/grey fabric outfit over the Reeve Superman body would rock - at least you could be sure the suit would never melt.

I'll wait for Sideshow's.

I made my own (still WIP).

Still looking forward to SS's version though.

Lookin' good. The blues not matching, the trunks, the symbology for the Jim Lee look would drive me insane. Looks fantastic compared to anything DCD has given us though.

Thanks. Yeah the not matching blues are the WIP parts, I'm dying the cape and making new trunks in the same color. Never having used dye before, I haven't yet got the results I want though.

I figured, the difference is you'll keep at it. Me? I'm lazy as hell and would have said "I ____ed up" and called it a day.

That is impressive!!! Did you sculpt the head and gloves? And what body is that?

This Batman looks amazing! How did you create it?
I like black and blue versions of the bat.

Thanks guys. The head is from ZKULTOR, the body, gloves, belt and boots from Moe. Both have threads in the Customs Interest Threads here in the forum. You can check out some more WIP shots in my collection thread here: https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=88544&page=10

I hated the Begins suit and TDK suit. The Begins suit looked like a scuba suit and TDK suit looked like a motor-cross suit. Neither one looked remotely like armor and they were both obviously very constraining to the mobility of the wearer.

The suits in the fan films like "Dead End" and "City of Scars" are MUCH better when the production costs are considered.

I'll drink to that. BitS really knows their stuff. I think they just released the sequel to City of Scars actually...
