Costume Display - Need Help

[CaptainSuperman]

I have several costumes that I have on display and a few I am currently working on. The problem is, you cannot find a mannequin that fits the character. They all seem to be effeminate. Does anyone know where to find masculine muscular mannequins (i.e. Nike, under armor, foot locker

Specifically does anyone know where to buy these?

This person sells a lot of mannequins. I didn't see one there quite like the one you're looking for, but if you contact them they might could get them for you or point you in the right direction to find them.

Thank you. I just e-mailed them to see if they have acces to the displays or know anyone who would. Thanks for the lead.

i would just make your own from PVC . Mannys are too expensive for what you get from my experience and I used to work with them all the time.

Have you tried asking the store where you got the pic from? Looks like a Dick's sporting goods. Sometimes they can share vendor contact numbers. It may be worth a shot if you want one just like those

Lol... superman wasnt 5'9 with a beer gut (jk)

I appreciate the feedback and suggestions. I am ideally looking for a dress form that has the superhero stature. I am interested in the PVC suggestion but have not seen one that I have been blown away by.

Does anyone have any pics of great PVC examples, or other suggestions of stores who may sell these athletic mannequins?

but they don't come cheap.

Robert H Ham has inexpensive mannequins, most priced around $150 or less. They have a few muscular male mannequins that may suit your needs:
