David...

I'm starting to run out of cash with all of the fantastic stuff you create!

I'm not even a Tron fan but this is incredible! I HAVE to see the full thing. Your talent is legendary and you aren't resting on your laurels! Bravo!

I have a quick question for you; Have you ever had a property that you're recreating and said to yourself, "You know, I could actually improve on this original design" or "I can make this a LOT better"? Just wondering what goes through the mind of a genius like you.


Thanks for the vote of confidence, and your words certainly make me feel like we're doing something right. :thumbsup

The kind of product we specialize in is basically form molded leather with end use products being real world, usable leather outerwear or motorcycle wear.
Design wise, no. I wouldn't even dream of attempting to improve on a design. A lot of the 'movie suits' have a unique look and style that just works 'as is' and honestly.....it's just difficult enough trying to get leather to look like something that was originally rubber (or other material) on screen.

While design wise I tend to tip my hat to the creators, function wise we really do our best to make them functional for real world uses such as motorcycle wear.
Our suits aren't costumes so we have a million other rules and standards to follow but I am proud to say that our suits are rugged, strong and of the highest quality I personally can manage. Again, they're not costumes but we really have to work hard to make them look like the given character as he was seen on screen wearing that costume.

So ultimately...design wise I just really try to get them to look like the suits as they were seen on screen. Function wise, that's where we try to really bring it home. Movie suits have all sorts of costume handlers and a zillion copies of each one as they get damaged during filming. We dont have that luxury so ours have to be built to last.

The TDK Batman motorcycle suit catered perfectly to our style of motorcycle wear....Wolverine was another one....Iron Man was very difficult but I couldnt be happier with how it's turned out, and wait until you see it in black/silver...:)

Tron Legacy....well in my opinion these suit designs could not be better suited for our kind of product base. I'm really eager to debut our Sam and Quorra suits at SDCC.

I hope that all made sense...:)
Thanks again for the cool post. I know our goods aren't for everyone but we do try to make good quality items with the source material as the main visual focus each and every time.

Hope to see you all at SDCC next week!

I wish...but it's now only a few days away.:angel

...and when I say I wish it's because I've got some killer images I just can't wait to share.....:cool

This project was killer fun to work on. I myself am amazed at the outcome considering the complex nature of the actual movie suits...to which I think *hope* you'll all feel we've duplicated.

Going to be a fun show....:thumbsup

No one has taken any pics of these yet? I think I am going to cry!

How did you guys get Seth Rogen to model for you?

Seriously though, those look AWESOME!
 
Re: Officially Licensed TRON LEGACY - Movie Replica Suits. UPDATED Video Posted 6/25

Wow those are nice!

How much are they going to run? I feel a Christmas gift coming on. :)
 
Re: Officially Licensed TRON LEGACY - Movie Replica Suits. UPDATED Video Posted 6/25

Noooooo! I can't see the pic because it's hosted on a photosharing site blocked at the office here :( I've gotta wait another 9 or ten hours to see it, Gggrrrrr!

Ran across this photo over on the superherohype.com gallery from SDCC... (with that cheap wig on, that woman could be mistaken for a mannequin if she stood still for long :p )

Awesome, thanks for posting that pic, I've been itching to get a glimpse of these. How cool is that?
 
Re: Officially Licensed TRON LEGACY - Movie Replica Suits. UPDATED Video Posted 6/25

Wow, if I had a bike I'd be saving up all sorts of money to get one of those suits. Imagine how many stares you'd get riding with your suit all lit up at night.
 
Re: Officially Licensed TRON LEGACY - Movie Replica Suits. UPDATED Video Posted 6/25

That is pretty darn cool!! Though I really wouldn't have a need for the whole outfit, I'm going to have to get the jacket for sure. Can't wait to see what the back looks like!

I love it!:love

Great job as always!
-B89! :D

David, allow me to make a prediction...

This will be your fastest selling item in the history of your company. Hands down.

I said it first.

A buddy of mine sent me cameraphone pics and the back looks nice as well. It looks like the "disk" is built into the jacket back and the inner ring is illuminated.

I am not a biker and never will be but after seeing these suits yesterday, Mirax has decided she HAS to have one, and I want the jacket because it is simply too cool too pass up! As with all of David's pieces, the detailing and craftsmanship are simply breathtaking.

Sorry Art, but you and Mirax are too good looking and will make the rest of us look bad in those jackets. You can't have one. ;)

Good looking? Are you confusing me with Mirax? She is 10 kinds of hot. Me? I am a gremlin.

I have gotta say, those suits are so cool I think ANYONE would look cool in them, in fact, I am counting on it for myself! :lol
