DC Comics Watchmen Muscle Chest Comedian Costume, Adult Medium - 1.8 out of 5 stars from 9 customer reviewsShouldve listened!
First off, Amazon did a great job getting this to me on time. Now the negatives. I was making my own costume but was hoping to get some ok boot covers, belt/buckle, shoulderpads, chestpiece. The "molded" items are mere cheap foam which was creased beyond belief. The belt buckle was just a painted strip of foam, very poorly made. As a huge Watchmen fan im so disappointed that this was a licensed costume...and yes the sizing of the costume will def. require velcro and double stick tape. I payed $26 so i cant be that mad, just feel sorry for anyone who payed more! Youre better off making your own, itll take a little more time and money, but all this costume guarantees is a letdown
Hmm, Pretty Awful.
I ordered a Medium, as I am borderline Medium/Large. The pants fit fine, the chest thing was HUGE. The elbow pieces were huge, and I am a pretty "fit" person (I have some meat there). The knee pads were huge. All little accessories were absolutely huge. The only thing that fit were the pants and the mask. Everything else was huge, and I had to forgo most of the accessories. The gloves had little finger holes and then where one inserts the hand (palm area to the wrist) was absolutely gigantic as well. The person who would fit in this costume is a short fat person. If that is you, then you will surely fit into the costume and probably not look as good as the model does as far as playing the role of the comedian. Not really pleased at all. The material is what you'd expect-- cheap plasticy manufactured stuff from the orient.
Comedian costume (Watchmen)
I should have listened to all the consumer reviews, but I was kind of in a rush and there really aren't many options for Comedian costumes I could find, as hard as that may be to believe. The sizing is waaaaaay off, first of all. I don't know who they hired to size those things out, but I'm about 5'10", 195 lbs so I ordered a Medium since most of the reviews said to order it a size smaller than what you'd normally wear. It is still way too big, both in circumference and height. That all can be adjusted though, with a scissors. The quality of paint on the shoulder pads is pretty bad too. Evidently someone put mine in the plastic bag while the paint was still wet and it stuck to the plastic bag, leaving a nice little mark when I separated the two. The only nice thing is the mask, it looks pretty good and is fairly comfortable as well. Realistically, I'd save my money, download some images off Google, and make my own. If you're willing to put some time and effort into it, I do think you...
