Post your batman suits

And my cape came in this weekend. I also ordered the legs last night, so hopefully around end of June/beginning of July they will be in and this costume will be done. I got the cap from On Pleather Wings, and she did a pretty good job on it.

Please note this is a budget build 89 costume and def not meant to be a high end costume. Once completed the total will be somewhere around 600 that I put into everything. Not bad all things considered.
What's your suit consist of and who made the parts?
 
What's your suit consist of and who made the parts?

The Mask and the belt I got second hand but were from JesterFX. 150
Symbol is JesterFX when he did a sale 30
Cape is from On Pleather Wings that I got because the person who did a custom commision didnt like it. 180
Legs I'm getting from Xtreme Design FX for cheap cause I don't need them to be painted as I plan on plastidipping them. 125
Chest I got from a friend of a friend who had it laying around for years and was a pretty bad B grade cast. Super thick parts, super thin parts, all in white latex etc. I plastidipped it a couple of times, trimmed some of it up and put in latex in some really thin spots to help secure it more. 100

The leg armor, gauntlet armor I'll be making myself out of craft foam and plastidipping just to save some bucks on the project. So with all that and shipping, roughs out to about 600.
I still need to dremel out a lot of the thick portions of the chest as I can't really move my arms up or down, but I'm afraid that with the age of the latex if I did it'd just tear. Might just have to be one of those cool stand there costumes, which I don't mind.

I know the feeling, having a urethane suit lol
 
My urethane begins piece isn't so bad. I can move my arms forward without much problem. Up is a little difficult however. I get a lot of resistsance just putting my hands on my hips. This however is worse.
 
Got to make a public appearance last weekend! Always fun to get in the suit when it's not Halloween!
The kids went ballistic! lol

Dude you both look totally AWESOME! I have a 70's suit too, I appreciate them when I see them cause there ain't that many out there. Thinking about upgrading mine.

Here are some pictures of my Batman - The Animated Series Costume. Its still lacking some things (like the white eyes, muscle shades and a screen accurate utility belt), but I'm pretty happy how it turned out and the people at the Conventions love it! The cowl is a Batman DE cowl by Shawn Reevez (as the DE cowl is in my oppinion the closest to the the TAS style, especially the ears). The cape and the gloves were made by Tuck Porter. The belt is a yellow coloured Arkham City belt from etsy, the boots are the Gotham 100. I brought the spandex suit on ebay, it was the closest thing I could find. It took my a huge lot of time to find all the things needed for this, but I definitely wanted to do the Animated Series Batman, because thats my favourite version of Batman ever!!!
I hope you guys like it as much as I do^^
 
Here is the other classic comic type suit. I wore this in the July4th parade. My son and daughter were Robin and Batgirl.
