That is great! :drool_y:
I've been wanting to pick up a spare Mego Captain Marvel to make him more comic book accurate. I saw that Dr. Mego sells the short yellow pirate boots and the white cape. Did you add the yellow trim to the cape yourself or did you buy it like that?

I really love it! I wish they would have done a live action Shazam to go with Isis.
This one looks fantastic. You put this all together very nicely.

The cape (and I'm sorry I didn't do a picture of the back of the cape, maybe I will do one later) was computer printed onto special ink jet fabric sheets(you can get them from Ebay). The yellow edge I made was big enough to fold it in half and hem it to provide a yellow edge to both sides. Then I painted elastic cord yellow to use for the neck cord.

I wanted to make the cape look screenprinted.

BTW, here's the huge versions of the pictures first posted:

Those are the short pirate boots, right?

Those are Conan boots molded in yellow by Doc Mego. They are a bit tight to put on since they were made for feet without an outfit but went on fine.
