Wow. It reads like an onion article, especially with the benefit of hindsight. But it doesn't answer the question: Who is the Judge Dredd gimp suit?

I believe Fleetway spent a small fortune getting that costume made.

My, there was money well spent.

I don't mind it - its pretty accurate - but the colours are another case of what works in print doesn't in the real world.

And if they'd spent that much money on it you'd think they'd spring for a decent photographer and a more suitable background.

I think the pics might come from the Dredd constume's world premier appearance on stage during a 2000AD panel at a convention about 10 years ago.

Trust me, you had to be there to realise just how toe-curlingly emnarrassing the whole thing was.

I never knew Dredd had a beer-gut.

So where's the costume now? Surely if Rebellion had it, it'd been at Dreddcon3

I don't think Rebellion have it, and Reaction Figures lost the Dredd and Anderson costumes they had at DreddCon:1.

Wasnt that Dredd costume stolen from Rebellion at some point?
