    Help with Batman fabric

    Years ago, when I started Mego customs, I found the most perfect blue nylon spandex (85/15 or 90/10 nylon/lycra) fabric. I only bought 1/2 a yard. I have never been able to find this color again! I really want to make a new Golden Age Batman and Superman. The Royal Blue that is common is too dark in my opinion. I am posting a pic of my old GA Batman to show the color I want. Note that is about the same color as Mego Batman Boots and gloves. Has anyone here found an online source etc?

      Thanks for the link BlackKnight! I saw the 'Corona' in the Milliskiin matte section. Is that the one you were thinking of?

          Probably the Proto's ...
          No Way the Factory China figures..., That Material is far too Thin ...., and is also far too Delicate to Touch ...., if you work Construction, and have rough Hands.

            Look on the "cards" too ...
            There's like 10 shades of Blue there.

              Sweet! Thanks again for the link Blackknight! I have been finding some interesting fabrics there.
              Another one I found is http://spandexworld.com/ I couldn't see a color I liked there for Batman, but I have bought other fabric from them.
