Since I’ve been a member of the board for 20 years now, it’s amazing to see the amount of creativity and craftsmanship that has evolved over that span of time. You guys are amazing in all the things that you do, and I’m sure along with any of the other “old-timers“, it does our hearts good to see our Batman spawning so much love of the characters’ costumes, gadgets, and overall fun-factor!
I find you to be odious, abhorrent and insegrevious.

I agree. People have come a long way from the days of guessing. We have all the correct measurements, correct materials and so on. It is fantastic.
Music. BAT! Music.

And here is a 2D scan of two 3D Nimslo images, stitched together. The Terrific Trio attended another early screening night of the 1984 "Supergirl" movie after appearing in costume at the monthly "Star Trek" Marathon in Sydney, Australia:

Always love seeing your cosplay photos from back in the 80’s, Iain. You all looked great! I don’t think I quite realised previously how well approximated the Batgirl suit in your group was for 1984!
