Dose any one have photos of the M.A.N.T.I.S. suit and mask from the original series, I’m only asking because I’m hopping to make a replica to use and where at the next Motor City Comic Con for 2011, but if I can’t do it in time I’ll do it next year. So dose anyone have photos I can use to make the suit?
Actually one of our members had one of the Screen-used ones.
I don't think he has it anymore.
I'm sure he will post when he sees this.

Okay but I'm looking for other photo's of the suit if possabile, it was either this or Bone Machine from RoboCop: Prime Directives, so I went with M.A.N.T.I.S.

Mantis, that is unbelievable! Thanks for sharing with us
Me? No, nothing yet I'm still in a vocational school for special needs people, I was born with Autism & Asperger syndrome, but so far I've been persuing an intrist in script writing, acting, prop making and costume making. So I have not had time to work on my project yet due to buget cost and resources, I now know I won't have time to finish it in time for the Motor City Comic Con 2011...and sadly I don't know how to post photos on threads.The Mantis said:
And what I mant to ask you was... do you think you could forward your photos to me?

The reason why I asked is because I would like to see other photos of the suit and headgear's from other angle's if that is possible.DemonHunter said:

I'm still going to try to figure it out, but I need to know what materiel and fabric I need to make it, and I have to have the boots custom fitted for my feet, because my shoe size is between size 10 to 11 wide (both feet.) But I'd figure I'd finish school frist.The Mantis said:
And I'll probably not be on here as much as usual, because I’ll be studying the Michigan Driver’s Training Manual “ What Every Driver Must Know!”, and I have had idea’s of couple new headgear designs with nuro- inhibitors above the opening of the headgears, they are simply design to protect your mind from telepathic invasions (Well the user of the headgear at lest.).

The point is Mantis, all I'm asking is it possible for you to forward your photo's to my e-mail address (im2d3d1@hotmail.com)? Please?
Mantis...that is a GREAT suit. Thanks for sharing the pics here
