Apologies if there is a thread already of this, but I couldn't find one. Anyway, while in Santa Monica this week, I saw a shop with the costume in display, and seeing that I had my camera with me, well dammit, I just had to snap away.

Sorry about the reflective glass, but most of the pics came out OK I reckon. Thought that you guys would like to have some authentic reference material, so I've included a link as well for the jumbo size images. For some reason, Mediafire was giving me hassles when trying to upload a zip file, so apologies, you'll need to grab them one by one.

Anyway, here's the suit photos at forum size, and I hope that this helps out a couple of ya!

excellent pics, these confirm something i have long suspected. the boots are not painted with red chainmail. i remember seeing photos from the licensing expo months back and it looked like it in those photos but these confirm it. thanks so much. also a pretty good shot of the cape. still havent decided if it is velvet or suede type material

I'm going sueded. I also think it is sewn with panels as well as a half circle when fully opened. Thoughts?

I agree on all accounts. It appears to be a microsuede fabric. Velvet just doesn't look right.

I'm trying to figure out the pattern of the cape. Definitely think it's a half circle, but haven't been able to pick out the panels.

Great Pics Thanks for sharing! I also think that a suede type material for the cape will be best suited.
