Arealight: New capes for Batman and Robin

These are accessories under development thatarea light alias Bluce Hsu presented long months ago on his flickr gallery. These capes molded in resin, presented here on Batman and Robin, are the most beautiful effect, and would advantageously replace those provided by LEGO which have an unfortunate tendency to age badly and fade over time.

The floating effect is striking and makes it possible to have a minifig entirely in plastic, manipulable by the youngest without risking the fatal tear or the annoying fold ...

With the arrival of the new LEGO Superheroes range, let's hope that Arealight will soon offer these capes again in its catalog, they also seem to have been marketed on its Bricklink store for some time, and that we can keep those provided by LEGO in their little white cardboard box with no regrets ....
