Batman Begins: Pictures of the Bat-suit!

[KenM]

Why is the utility belt a totally different color then the rest of the suit? Makes it stand out, makes you a target.

not to throw stones...makes him look fat!

I thought so too...

I don't know, but did you notice it's the (original/current) "pouches" belt, not the (60s-70s-80s-TV series) "ciliders" belt? I like that!

Best part about it... no Nipples!

And yes, it does make him look fat.

 

[Umbran]

Yeah, but real armor doesn't make a guy look svelte, y'know. It actually has to have mass and thickness to do it's job. If it made him look slim, it wouldn't be plausible.

Give me the original from 1989 with Mr. Keaton any day...

Ugh. Really?

I never could get behind that costume, personally. Sure, it looked pretty good standing still, but it was way too stiff. Even if Keaton had the martial arts and acrobatic chops for Batman, there's no way anybody could have actually moved in that suit.

This one's still slightly bulky--I wouldn't say "fat" as others have--but it actually allows for a full range of movement. (We've actually seen picks of Batman crouching in this outfit, something that I never believed Keaton could actually have done.) I feel it just looks better, in general, as well, but that's just me.

im gonna need to see this in action, cuz the first picture looks much shinier than pic #2.

the main problem is that the bat-symbol does not stand out from the rest of the costume. even without the yellow circle, the symbol stands out in the comics because it is ALL black, and the costume is a much lighter shade of grey.

i barely even noticed the bat symbol in the first pic.

 

[frankthedm]

I would say fat.

 

[Jamdin]

Looks like the action figure will be good

Darker? It's black rubber! How much darker can it get?

The answer is none! None more black!

For what it's worth, I like it. The second picture does look a bit stupid, but it's because of the overly dramatic pose, not the suit.
