Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I knew this wasn't going to be replica quality, but I thought what the heck, it'll be cute. Wow, was I wrong! I have no idea how they made the model look so attractive wearing this, but it can only be massive alteration to the actual costume, plus maybe Photoshop. This costume is a thin black bodysuit with pieces of thin, flexible craft foam stitched on to it. The chest piece is actually rectangular, not hourglass shaped like the one on the model, so it doesn't show off your waist, it makes you look like a lego. The breast plates are the size of a deck of cards and positioned so high up on the chest piece that there isn't any way to make them go over the area they look like they're supposed to feature. See how it looks like the model has a high turtleneck under that shaped chest piece? Nope. There's maybe an inch of black collar standing up, very close to the top of the chest piece. The belt is a piece of black fabric with craft foam shaped stitched halfway around it, so you have half of a white belt and you have to tie the sash in the back. Very trooper-like! I didn't open the blister pack with the helmet halves in it, because I was afraid of breaking it, but it seems to me that if you held it up to the light you could probably see through it, it's so thin. I'm astonished at how awful this is for the money they're charging. I'm sending it back: I'd be embarrassed to be seen wearing it, even just at a Halloween party. Don't buy this, and save yourself the expense and hassle of returning it.
