Personally if they did it more in line with the artwork then I would not have as much of a problem with it. But after watching the episode and looking at the helmet more closely among other things. I feel more or less that this is more a step backwards or an attempt to again to make him look like his Arkham Origin version.
Biggest thing that stands out to me is his helmet look way to big and cumbersome among things dont make senseto me for is the helmet post to be two pieces or one with the straps around the jaw area making me think it done like goalie mask. While the vest looks way to overcomplicated with all the orange carabiners holding everything together. Guess they made the helmet look bigger to offset the fact they made the whole upper body much larger with the vest and everything, wonder if he can go through a normal size door with all the gear on.
The vest look overall okay but the carabiners really don't do it for me as its looks like someone went carabiner mad and throw every they could to hold pieces together instead of attaching a buckle or a quick release.
Must be a pain for the continuity people due to carabiners have a tendency to rotate in the configurations they have them in.
While the artwork to me looks allot more possible then what they made. Due in the fact that it looks like riot gear meets motorcycle protective gear. Making him look much more sleek and agile.
On an unrelated note.
I think I found the shin guards. They seem to me after looking at some stuff and going to some used sporting good stores to be youth / unisex soccer shin guards. Specifically Nike T90 air maximus circa 2010 with additional strapping for the knife and support since they probably did not use the spat part of the shin guard so it could fit above a tactical boot, from what I can gain, as they where repainted flat black for production probably due to the fact the nike logo is inlayed into the plastic instead of it being a sticker. So they probably had to sand down the logo, but due to any evidence to contradic it they may have used them regardless knowing the logo will never show up due to the due to lighting and the way they film movies and shows being almost always from the waist up.
The reason I say this is the hole placement is correct, although maybe widen or maybe a larger size then the one I can find a picture for, and they have the same odd mid shin hump to them as you see in refection in the pic when he walks into the interrogation tent. Right now they are sortof hard to find, but I have also found some "store brand" ones that have the same design ie Target and Walmart, due sure if its the same as the one in my geographical area matched to an extent outside the mid shin hump.
