Title: Not as good as expected

Date: Nov 03, 2007

I think the costume was a decent buy overall, but I do have a few complaints to make. The first is that the picture is deceiving. If one did not read the details they would think from the picture that the costume had a full body suit. The guy in the picture clearly has padding in the legs. I have pretty large legs but my legs looked small in the costume because of the big upper body. Also, the mask does not look as good as the one in the picture nor is it as fitted. The ears are not as prominent and your hair will actually be exposed in the back. The edges on the bootings that are attached to the legs are not that pointed either. Also, the plastic logo piece attaches to the belt with a ingle piece of velcro. The velcro on mine came off so I glued the foam backing of the logo piece to the belt. Well the foam ended up coming unglued and the logo piece ended up falling off while I was at a costume party, so I ended up walking around sporting a foam belt buckle. The belt itself ties around your back making the costume looking a bit sissy from behind. It is a real pain to use the bathroom because someone has to assist everytime by unzipping the back and untieing the belt. These costumes should come with zippers. Also, I would recomment buying the $20 claws as the ones that come with the costume are cheap plastic.

Title: Great costume

Date: Nov 02, 2007

For our huge 2007 Halloween party, I was bent on being a super hero. The Wolverine costume went over really well and I received a lot of muscle pokes like the previous reviewer. The overall costume is really nice and comfortable and it wasn't too hot. It was easy to put on and I actually managed to zip the back up myself. The claws that come with it were nothing special but you're only wearing them for one night so it doesn't matter much. I would have to say that the only thing that disappointed me was the fact that the front forehead area of the mask had some wrinkling. It's pretty much inevitable due to the way it's packaged and after getting the costume on, I didn't mind it much. I got a lot of positive feedback and people really liked it. I ended up seeing a friend wearing the Captain America costume so there were a lot of super hero photos taken. Overall a great costume.
