Looking forward to pictures. I'm dying to see what this thing looks like without having to commit to buying it yet.

And finally, 1 picture with a GH cape & CW cowl, 1 pic with the CW cape & CW cowl & a comparative against the GH stock promo photo. I probably could have done a little better adjusting some of the elements in my GH suit (pictured in the comparative photo) but at least you can see how things seem to differ between the promo and reality.

Looks more like "Bat-Depends" than Bat trunks.

Just so wrong on so many levels, starting with the price.....

Man, such a wasted opportunity. The "R" logo isn't even straight.

Thanks for the pics.

The "R" might look straighter after the suit is put on - the gloves look a lot better than the Bat-suit ones. They used a better material it seems - much smoother.

I would've been happy with that bat-suit as a kid, when it would have cost about $5. As it was, we had to settle for a plastic full-face mask held on by a rubber band, and a chest emblem with "Batman" written across it.

So here we are 40 years later, and they're still finding ways to disappoint us. Ah, Halloween...

Thanks for all the pix, all.

As I expected, the quality of the Dynamic Duo costumes are not comparing well to the Batgirl costume. Let's face it, the Batman and Robin costumes are more complex than Batgirl's - or Catwoman's, or the Riddler's. I am especially confounded by Rubies' decision to make Robin's tunic shiny, for pete's sake...

Still no one with a Catwoman costume to show us? I'm surprised - such a popular character.
