But at about 60usd each what are they really worth?

you have to figure that most people dont want to spend over $100 for a halloween costume, so they are made kind of cheap.. Only people like us would spend hundreds of dollars for an exact replica

:$ :rolleyes Hundreds?

I wish! :lol :$

Hundreds for one piece of it maybe. But, my God... The cash I've spent on accuracy. :unsure

 

[allosaur176]

OK. Maybe, just maybe in certain cases I should say thousands :lol

 

[tetsuyacasshern]

But seriously is there anything of use on those costumes. Sometimes buying a the commercial costume there may be a piece that might just actually help in getting a costume together but I just dont see it in them.

these aren't made to hold up being displayed or crime fighting.. these are simple latex pieces that are to give you some entertainment for halloween... Give it time.. The creativity on this board never ceases to amaze me... In time you will get what you want

$60.00 manufacturer suggested retail price but probably $5.00 to make overseas in some sweatshop!!!! That is an excellent profit margin for cheap stuff!:lol

 

[allosaur176]

I think Hawkman looks pretty good :thumbsup

I don´t think that they are that bad at all for halloween/carnival costumes. They capture the overall likenesses, and at that price point you can´t expect anything better. So why the griping ?

I am not too fond of the movie costume designs anyway.

I'll agree that for the price, it's not that bad. The Nite Owl cowl is a pretty good starting point.

However The Comedian does look like he walked into a stationary cupboard. At least they chose approprite models.

I feel a lot better already.

what do you mean by that?

Compared to other movie or superhero related Halloween costumes I've seen, those aren't bad at all.
For example:

the silk spectre doesn't look bad. I mean these fill a certain niche. they are meant to be haloween costumes not 100% movie accurate reproductions.

 

[Capn_Jack_Savvy]

Also when the cheap version of costumes start selling it tends to cheapen the expensive stuff that people market at higher prices and with more screen accuracy.

Happening right now with Joker, Sparrow, Indiana Jones, etc.

I really hope your jokeing... :lol

lollol ME TOO!!!! HAHAHA!!!:lol

 

[Ramiel]

what do you mean by that?

I think he means that he is more comfortable with his own Rorschach costume now! And he should definately be!:cool
