Admit it, people—you want to be Batman. Heck, we all want to be Batman, because we can be... if we had billions of dollars, ninja training and a major traumatic incident that gave us a single-minded obsession with fighting crime, that is.
As a consolation prize to us normal folks who can't quite become the super-normal Caped Crusader, Universal Designs Replicas is offering the next best thing: a Batman motorcycle suit based on the costume design from "The Dark Knight."
According to UD Replicas, the motorcycle outfit "comprises a full-leather jacket that includes lightweight interior lining, as well as molded-leather and Kevlar armor sections; pants that include heavy-duty, four-way stretch Spandex inserts and CE-approved armor; authentic gloves and boots that replicate the amazing on-screen design."
The suits are customized based on the customer's size, ranging anywhere from XXS to XXL. A maximum of 1,000 suits will be created.
"No film of the 21st century has been as visually stunning as 'The Dark Knight,' and we're proud to be working directly with Warner Bros. Consumer Products to ensure accuracy and authenticity in every custom-made Motorcycle Suit," said Universal Designs owner David Pea. "'The Dark Knight' is one of the highest-grossing movies all time, and continues to spark the imagination of fans everywhere."
Depending on how vivid your imagination is, you might not want to shell out the $998 it takes to buy this suit—a price that crosses over $1,000 for purchasers in Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia. You might want to hold onto that cash and save it for your true-to-scale and fully-operational Bat Cave fund. That's certainly what I'm doing.
