A leather Mr. Terrific jacket just the way it looks in the comics, and put it on sale? Would anyone buy it? I would...

#2 Posted by The_Martian (36980 posts) - 5 years, 7 months ago - Show Bio

Is that T on his face paint or is it a tattoo?

#3 Posted by Buckshot (18282 posts) - 5 years, 7 months ago - Show Bio

I think I might.

"Is that T on his face paint or is it a tattoo?"

It's a mask that is molecularly bonded to his face, and has built-in nanotechnology in it. It can disappear and reappear at will.

But, about the jacket. If it does go on sale, how much would you pay for it?

One question. How much is that converted in US dollars? Do you know?

i think the last thing i bought from DC's official store was Kyle's GL ring, which got binned shortly after because it bent out of shape while i was at work... really crap metal...

so i got one from an independent maker, and still got that one, 4 years later.

Well, 200 euros converted to US dollars would be $288... Hmmm... I would definitely pay that much money for a genuine leather Mr. Terrific jacket.

Pounds converted into dollars are DOUBLE. So he's really saying he would buy that jacket for 300 or 400 $.

King of Kings says:

"Well, if it was real leather, its probably gonna run ya around $1,500 U.S. depending on the size. It also depends if the lettering was hand stitched or sewn."

Wow. Well it would make a good collectors item. If I paid that much for it, I wouldn't even wear it... Then again... ^_^

LegendaryKYJ says:

I must have gotten pounds confused with euros, since I'm not familiar with the symbols. But anyway, I would pay that much as well...

i know Englands really cheap for Leather Jackets, but that style would normally go for about £100 to £150

http://www.leatherjacketshop.co.uk/acatalog/casual-jacket-62062.html

add on about £50 because it's 'official merchandise' and thats about the selling price we'll get it for

Lmao, I wrote it wrong. 150.00 to 250.00 depending on size and lettering.

If I'm paying anything over $15 I want the mask and working T-Spheres.

Still a reasonable price for genuine leather, plus the size and lettering. Anyone agree?

Static Shock says:

they have full ownership now, and the Wildstorm universe is being written into the DCU...

hence Kyle (Green Lantern) was wandering about The Bleed

more than likely we'll see a lot more crossovers in the future between those two universes.

on a sub note, does anyone know the 'official designation' for the Wildstorm Universe in the DCU now?

or is it just "EARTH WS" our of 52 lol

Pretty sure it was 50 or 51 (might be on the WSU page). Speaking of Midnighter, I'd by a set of his "business" cards.

going to be weird having the Wildstorm Universe that close to the DCU...

wonder if we'll actually see an Authority / JLA crossover now?

i'd buy that :D

I heard rumors that the DC Animated Universe is a separate universe amongst the 52 multiverses. Is this true? Speaking of Wildstorm merchandise, I would buy Midnighter's nightstick...

I honestly never cared for T. but yeah, I'd probably go for it.......depending on price.
