Batman Begins suit help

[Tom1971]

Currently I can do nothing but sometime next year I am hoping to start working on getting my Batman Begins suit together. Looking at a great suit recently I thought I would start finding out about options.

I need to know the following:

Best options for:

Cowl

Armor

Cape

Gloves and gauntlets

Pants

Boots

Belt and gun

I'm looking for who are the top makers and an Idea of prices.


Thanks in advance.

UD Replicas (Universal Designs Ltd.) will be releasing a Begins motorcycle suit shortly. It looks like it'll be about $1,000 for the whole suit. They currently have the Begins/TDK belt available too. I think that's around $150-200. If you were to pick up their stuff, I think, all you'd need to get is the cowl and cape.

It's not foam latex (if I remember right, that's what they used in Begins) but made of leather. So it will have a different look and feel but they did have the original suits in hand when designing theirs so they are very accurate. Personally I like the idea of the leather over the material of the original movie suits. I think it makes it more plausible and realistic.

Good luck in your search!

More plausible, more realistic, more comfortable to wear, more versatile, much more resistant and far more durable.

The only issue is that it doesn't quite look like the movie suit because it's obviously not the same material. But if you plan on dressing up many times during the year, that's the way to go.

If it's for a display mannequin, i'd go the foam latex route.

A few tips :

- Cowl, gauntlets, torso armor, leg armor : Bob Dullam or Jeff Dey
- Cape and gloves : Inkmonkey
- Belt : Hellskitchen or UD Replicas
- Boots : UD Replicas
- Gun : Noble collection (metal) or any decent looking resin kit

Okay the motorcycle suit does look awesome. Thanks for the heads up on that.

I'm not so sure about the belt and a few years back Bronze armory had what I thought was a great one.

Are they no longer any good???
