Apocalypse Costumes of the 80s

Magneto's DOFP is my favourite cinematic superhero costume ever. I can't believe you guys!

It's one of the better ones for sure. Still not liking the helmet. Hope he gets a new one for Apocalypse.
 
The FC helmet looks like a shiny bucket. DOFP helmet forever.
 
I thought Mckellen's first ones were classy.
 
If Magneto's on Xavier's side again, they could do away with the helmet altogether.
 
Yeah McKellen always looked great. I think Magneto should keep it because it's iconic. Plus, he's always sketchy so I can't see him actually leaving it at home.

The DOFP one looked like cheap plastic. IMO, for all the faults FC had as a film, his helmet was one that I actually liked.
 
FC was absolute trash I'm sorry the DOFP one was 100x times better. I even liked the top of his costume it was just those baggy pants, but Fassbender is athletic but slim still at the same time I would like a more modern costume similar to the one he has in his comic.
 
I think the FC helmet is the best one so far, it's just a better looking helmet in general as well aswell as being closer to his comic helmet

The OT always looked like cheap plastic to me, like it would break if you dropped it

The DOFP helmet was basic and decent but it's a shame they got rid of some of the edges the FC one

While the magneto costume in DOFP is probably the best magneto costume we had
 
If Magneto spent as much time on his plans as he does on his wardrobe he probably would have won by now.
 
For me, FC helmet looks like its made of steel while DoFP looks like its made of stone.

The DOFP helmet had a better design and fit... but it did kind of look like foam. It just needed a bit of refinement. They should have painted it better and made it look like cast iron.
 
I think Fassbender was the one that suggested that Magneto's helmet should have a rougher look to it, as he formed it himself or fought in something or whatever. The initial Shaw one was great too, but I really dug Magneto's DOFP look. Except the pants. The damn pants.

Oh and Pavlov, your watercolor was fantastic. If Mingenbach could create something even remotely similar to that that'd be great. They seem very X-Men Evolution-y and I dig them. Modern, but still comicbook-y.
 
How about the all white costume he has/had(?) In the comics' lately?
 
Not a fan. There is no prestige or class to that costume. It's fricken sleeveless. And Magneto should wear purple or red.

The FC costume was a fun, campy 60s costume. But DOFP is flawless (except maybe the pants :p)
 
Magneto would wear that all wight costume and make it wurk! I assume his pants were that way to give fassy more room. :sly:

The DOFP costume was a step in the right direction... at least for the X-franchise. It still had a whole bunch of issues... the pants, boots, the disjointed breast plate, etc. Overall though, pretty good. :)
 
FC's helmet looked awkward while the texture of Dofp's helmet looked a bit rough.

The FC Magneto costume was assembled for a 10 second appearance. So I can let that one slide.

But yeah take advantage of the actors body. Make Magneto look sexy and strong.

The X-men need colorful uniforms. They need uniforms that show they are a team.

Singer look at Snyder. His films have great costumes. They pop.

Having uniforms that show the X-Men are a team has never been a problem. Color, on the other hand...

Though, I don't think I would point Singer in the direction of Snyder.
 
Using color and Snyder in a sentence is weird to me.
 
Not to much color but to use it subtlety would be great I just don't want drab boring black or brown.
