    CTVT body suits?

    Are the normal suits like spandex stretchy or just a little give? Thinking of using them for a project, but would like some feedback.

    Thanks!

    They are single-knit synthetic jersey. They fit snugly on a vintage Mego body but do stretch. The biggest concern is they are not sized/sewn consistently from suit to suit, even among the same color lot.
    WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

      Thank you! I've had good luck so far. It's nice to know the chances.

        I am thinking about putting them on some muscle bodies. Do you know if they are consistant with the castaway suits?
        Thanks for the info.

          I cannot imagine they could fit onto muscle bodies. The ones I tried were snug on vintage T2 bodies, and would be snugger still on DM repro T2s. I think muscle bodies would be out of the question.

          But, since CTVT has added repro muscle bodies, maybe they will add some resized suits, too.

            Thanks for the responses. I should have clarified the muscle bodies. I have some resin muscular torsos, legs and arms.
