    Do you like our old body suits or our new body suits

    We're working with a new clothing factory to make some new body suits. Do you like the old style ones we made or do you like the new ones? Do you prefer the shiny suits or the flat ones?

    I think the old ones are okay, but we can always use new ones.

    I like the flat kind myself.

    Sure, shiny is cute and everything, but it's not really my cup of tea.

        Can you post a pic of both. I've never ordered one so maybe my opinion isn't what you want anyway.

          I would like the old suits better. They do not have the seem across the chst right? If you could post pics I think that would help. Evenif we had the option, that would be great. I love your stuff, keep it comng.

              One thing: They're a bit tight going up over the thighs, and the sleeves are too tight to put over a pair of hands.

              I have to pull the hands off of my Castaway bods in order to get the danged suit on!

                I like the older suits much better. I think I would use them a lot more! I know I would!!!!!! How long will it take to get the older suits made? I have a bunch of customs in the ( I need suit stages)

                  I didn't buy either of the 2 styles of suits. The lack of feet covering and the seam at the chest kept me from the new ones. The turtle neck kept me from the earlier ones. For me, I'd buy a standard one piece jumpsuit with feet and no collar. Basically like Mego's Riddler suit minus the screened on question marks... in an array of colors (essentially a DM style suit with a better fit). I'd also buy Mego Batman style with the shorts sewn in. For material, I love the stuff used on Captain Action and Phantom - flat not shiny. I've been waiting for someone to make these style of suits forever. DM suits were close and CTVT was a disaster. If done right, I'd buy a boatload. I'd probably pass on other styles.

                        I guess I would go for flat and old. Like the turtleneck design.

                          I like options. Bring on both, Shiny and Flat. Castaway hands come off easily so that doesn't bother me a bit.

                            Exactly what Ron said. I've used some of your new suits, but they are too much like sock material for my tastes. I preferred the old suits, but the turtleneck limits how they can be used.

                            So, old suit material, lose the turtle, at least on some of them.

                              Flat colors and I like the Captain Action patterned style of the suit on him and the Phantom. Keep them tighter, I don't really care about being able to remove them once on a figure.
