I think thats the modified 89 suit without the symbol,cape, and cowl t:

As far as looking like Robocop, the TDK suit has nothing on the god awful "accelerator suits" the characters have in the GI Joe movie.

naaasstyy!!!!!!

Yeah that's what I thought. It just looks a bit cheaper.

I know they have the armored suits, but don't they just wear those techy suits for part of the movie, though? Isn't that just another one of their "accessories"?

Isn't saying the suit kind of looks like Robocop doing Robocop an injustice, though? I mean, come on, guys. You can't tell me the armor for this new suit doesn't look like plastic pieces that were cut, glued and patched on to the mesh undersuit.

This is, of course, most evident in the legs. The chest actually has a bit of fiberglass, which helps it a bit, but not by much.

It's really weird how similar the "pro-suit" guys are, or at least a few of them, to the religious posters at the Passion Pits on IMDb. Weeeird.

Very true BUT it has the 89 vibe to it

Not saying I dont like snake eyes suit but just saying.

 

[capt. slaughter]

it does have a batman 89 look to it LMAO!!!!!

 

[BatmanFanatic]

Really?

It has just about everything that most people who have a problem with the suit want. It's more organic looking, no techy stuff on the suit, not busy-looking,, form fitting, gray, and the helmet doesnt look too big for the body.

Maybe you think I meant the suit as is.. If so, then no. I meant that if they were to tailor the rest of the suit that doesnt fit Batman, like the pants and alter the helmet design to look like the Batman's, it would please the people who dislike the TDK suit.

I'm on board. I get what you're saying, with some modifications it would be a pretty cool foundation for a Batman suit.

You're right. My apologies to Robocop for comparing his cool suit with TDK crap suit.

Idk if anyone has noticed this but in those art promo with Bales Head it like the same face on everybody I swear. just look at the pictures. Same face.

I would do (and am doing...)something like this...

It's all a one piece as I see it.
I will be a black on black suit...
It's just all about how and what type of blacks to use.
I wanted to give him copper bronze lenses like his belt
to keep him dark and mono colored as much as possible..

Here is the oval suit option...

Alright...Im ready for my whoopin....

 

[batman11]

I've always like your work Wams. Really well done.

Very "Knightish" I like it.

 

[BatmanFanatic]

My cousin in Canada can't see the pic... could you post it a little bigger please?

 

[xwolverine2]

im not a big fan of any grey suit for bats...

but nice design... especially the mask.

but what of the neck?

 

[Boom]

Same basic idea as the TDK suit, but much better executed.

Can't wait to see it.

but why the lenses?

 

[deathfromabove]

He's also bullet proof.

and I know what you're thinking, he may not be bullet proof but Spiderman has superhuman speed and reflexes.




Think it's far from perfect and that there are better options out there, but I still want to see it in action/context before I make a final decision. I thought the Begins suit sucked from stills I saw on the Internet however after seeing the movie it became one of my favorites.

what? you are going to wait until you see how the suit looks on film before you judge it? holy smokes what an amazing and novel idea!

That looks hideous. I dont even know why they would have the GI Joes wearing something like that.

I think that kind of look for the Batsuit would please most of the fans. Especially the headpiece. I think that would solve all of the bobblehead/egghead complaints, and he looks like he has full neck mobility too.

that looks hideous.

i like it.

It just makes more sense to me for many reasons.

I said its gonna be black on black.

The neck....???
It's all a one piece suit like Spidey's

Wait till you see al it done.

 

[Reflectionist]

Kent may be bullet proof but I never understood how his costume seemed damage proof. Fire, Floods, nuclear explsions it never gets a crease.

He's obviously only wearing the red underwear and the cape, and the boots, the rest is painted on. lol

That cowl helmet would probably look incredibly cool on top of a form-fitting, thin cloth cowl. Is that your intention?
