Favorite SANDMAN Costume?

[Holdyourfireal]

Bowen Designs is working on a Full-Sized Sandman statue & Randy Bowen started a poll asking which version people prefer. I'll create the same poll here as Randy created on our site. I will share the link with him, so he can see the results.

If you can, I'd also appreciate if you'd vote in Randy's poll on our site as well.

I love the bottom caption on the Sandman/Hydroman team-up.

Seeing the cover to one of the worst Spider-Man comics ever made (part one of the Mud-Thing two-parter) me throw up in my mouth a little.

But to answer your question: Classic costume all the way.

Stripped shirt pwns!! It's one of the few things they got right in Spider-Man 3

[Mr. East]

That armored costume just looks plain wrong.

[Stephen Tetsu]

Jebuz Chiminey, That armored Sandman is hideous. I'd take classic Sandman everyday of the week.

[Crowforge]

Why's the sandman need armor? Now a giant body-condom would make sense...

[remoteman]

The classic costume is awesome and timeless. The armoured look is...well, lame, and looks very outdated today.

[Crowforge]

He looks like a weird New God... How's he even get a new costume?

[remoteman]

I think the Wizard made it for him when he was in the Frightful Four.

[ThisMortalSoil]

Striped.... armor on a guy that turns into sand is just.. ugh..

[Jim Thompson]

I really liked both. I understand the inherant silliness of the armored costume, but somehow it just works for me. :redface:

seeing that cover makes me want to punch babies

The armored costume is slightly better than the classical costume.
And having Sandman with a Armor which turns to Sand as well,makes sense in my book.
And make Sandman a better vilain.

Both were ok to me, though the armored one is a head scratcher. Its like they tried to beef him up with...armor? Maybe the armor has +8 versus vacuum cleaners or something.

No offense to who ever started the debate but how is this even a debate?

[spiderman_rj]

the originl and thats all there is to it, i mean, the guy was transformed into sand with his cloths, so he should be stuck with it forever, and the one from the 70-80s sucks BAAAAAAAAAAAD

[Patrick Hultquist]

To be fair about the armor, he was facing the Hulk. Of course, he's made of sand, so how is the armor supposed to help? I'm confused.:confused:

[Crowforge]

it'll help hulk punch a good deal of his mass across the county. Wait that doesn't help!

striped shirt - Sandman was always a been thug and it fits him perfectly

[steveg887]

I will only buy a statue of Sandman in his armored costume if it is a statue depicting this scene and this scene only:
