[QUOTE=AmiMizuno;4393359]But wouldn't the eagle armour still be over the top?[/QUOTE]
I prefer the screaming golden chicken armour to the WW84 armour, at least at this early stage (i.e. based on a single image).
As seen here ([url]http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/13/133677/3129475-1943723-battlearmor_002.jpg[/url] and [url]https://www.herocollector.com/en-us/Article/new-launch-wonder-woman-mythologies[/url]), I quite like it. If they'd taken that basic design, lost the wings, simplified the helmet and added blue pants and a red undershirt / sleeves, I would have been pretty happy.
[QUOTE=AmiMizuno;4393408]You mean the one that had the eagle hamlet? I don't know it's iconic but it's over the top in design. I mean I would like a redesign[/QUOTE]
Yes, this one.

I just can't wait to have hottoys produce one.
A definitely must collect item for ww.
A much simpler design would be better. Diana has wore another armours before. Why go all out in a strange design?
It seems they didn't reference any design from the DCyou armor

Because I love it! lol Also it's had multiple comic appearances (not a 1 off like Perez) been rendered by various artists to good effect (most notably in the death of Hippolyta) and I'm all about comic book accuracy.
[QUOTE=Charmed;4393281]The new armor looks ridiculous, but I kind of love it. I'm weird.[/QUOTE]
I just can't keep from thinking "Barda?"
Now that you mention it, it is giving me a bit of a Barda vibe. It also looks a tad like the costume she wore during the DCYou era.

Too true! If the red were swapped with blue, the resemblance would be even more striking.

It looks more like this... apart for the solid gold bit.

About the armor. I'm not interested in any new suit. I want to see a more powerful Diana on her own. One thing i don't like about DCEU and Rebirth is how dependent on gear she is. Do you think there is the hope we will see better feats of her actual powers in the sequel, or will it be all about the gear again?[/QUOTE]
After seeing the new Armored Suit just to fight Cheetah! Nope.
Even if she does something cool, it will because of suit.
Wonder Woman is the next Ironman except she can't create her own suit like Ironman or Batman
Not sure I like that new armour. To me it looks like it has the same trouble that plagued Batman in too many recent movies: it's too heavy and hard to move in. Gal Gadot will look and move as stiff as a board in any scene where she live acts.
A large part of the reason why costume designers need to study historical armours is not because they look good or can give inspiration, but because they are proven designs: they protect you and still leave you as mobile as possible. This one leaves important spots unprotected, looks too heavy, too restrictive of movement, and has spots where weapons can "dig in" rather than glance off.

The wings wouldn’t be too heavy since they’d be made of EVA foam but for the purpose of animating them, CGI is the way to go
I thought it was nothing more than a promotional poster, which looks awesome btw, I didn't expect it to be armor she will be wearing in the movie. That's not the kind of thing that's flexible, or even practical from the look of it.
