Where can I find a Kurt costume? not like a mask, but his various outfits? Any stores in the Dallas TX area that sell them? Where can you find the right shade of face paint?

There really isn't a costume that you can buy. Unfortuately, every piece has to be bought separately. Unless of course you find a costume shop that has the entire outfit for rent. Even then it maybe difficult because usually something like that, being copyrighted, you may find they altered it in some way. Too bad you didn't think of this sooner. A Nightcrawler costume, if you want it to be totally awesome, takes several months to prepare for. My costumes(when I did them)usually takes 3 months to get together because I'm always searching for the right pieces.

Keep checking out the Dallas area. Thrift stores etc...you may get lucky!

Have fun and Good Luck!;)

I have never seen a full costume of Kurt. Only his face... I wonder why they don't sell them. :?

I guess Marvel doesn't fancy licensing such a costume. I don't understand why they wouldn't. In fact, they really don't seem to license all that much in the way of Nightcawler items. You'd think with his increased popularity, we would see more. :(

Now if you want Wolverine stuff, well... :evil

Shadow_Dancer's right... I wonder why Marvel doesn't promote Nightcrawler as much as Wolverine? I mean, with enough promotion, Kurt could take Wolverine's place atop the X-men favorites.

ya, man...that would be so cool. twenty years from now, a descendant of my brothers firend who used to think wolvie's name was xman (cuz he was so prominent) would be like: "wow, x-man is so cool with his blueness and his teleporting and stuff" and nc would have his solo comic, and nc would no longer be friends w/ wolvie, wolvie would be friends w/nc...tho i suppose that wouldnt relly change much....

Agreeing with Northstars, a costume such as Kurt's from the movie or the comics(which would be the easiest:black body suitand red and white felt) would have to be pieced together but the face makeup can be easily found. You could go to a costume shop and buy a little kit and just use the blue paint but I think I've also heard of blue grease paint in use as well.
