Upgrading my Bane costume

Did Clothears ever respond back to you about the vest, Ironhide? I messaged them a while back but no reply.
 
Not much to report... still have found no upgrade to the vest I used from last halloween... tho the pants from Banepants.com rock and are def staying with the costume!! Well.. here is a pic with the last version vest and pants with the NEW mask and gauntlet!

Curious as to how tall and what your weight was at during these photos if you don't mind sharing?

Also, are you willing to share any of the info on where you picked up that gauntlet? Starting to put together a Bane outfit for SDCC this year.
 
Hey there... in answer to your question I am just shy of 5-8" and with the most recent pic I wieghed in about 215 lbs . Fairly close to Mr.Hardys actual size I think...

I picked up the gauntlet on ebay... seemed to be very close to movie accurate..tho I may have to trim out the thumb extension since Bane in the movie didnt have one

Mr. Hide (pardon the pun :facepalm), I would have to deem that unnecessary. Upon looking at the thumb hole, it can be seen in various photos such as:

that the thumb space is in fact not a hole. If it were just a hole cut into the gauntlet, his metacarpophalangeal joint (thumb knuckle) would be showing. I may be wrong: his thumb could be just receded inside the hole in every photo. But from what I can tell, there is a tube concealing the uppermost part of his thumb. I suggest a trim of a few centimeters. All that aside, this is all observation from photos.. If someone has evidence saying otherwise I'd be glad to change my opinion. Just tryin' to help! :)
