It is interesting the dichotomy that is here between hyper detailed uniforms and nearly blank canvases.  Personally, I think the blank canvas way is much more like the old school 2-toned uniforms with a jacket and pants.  All of this detail with parts and pieces doesn't 'read' nearly as clearly as just one or two colors... IMO

If the members dig it and are having fun, that's what matters. :thumbup:

Sort of, yes. I can't be the only fan who invests some good funds in tickets and who donates non-trivial amounts to corps. We fans ought to matter a little.

Look what just showed up on Regiment's webpage:

I still think the corps proper looks like a mashup of Darth Maul and Boba Fett...with a little Sidney Opera House on the shoulders...

Still thinking more about the simplicity issue...

Consider that if you had a press box snapshot of the Bluecoats 2016/2017 and one of the white uniform era of Phantom (or Star)... You would have essentially the same visual clarity.

That guard getup is the #### of nightmares.

I like it.

SMH good lord

Never said I hated it, that was my first impression.  From a static viewing, I'm not sold on it (I think it's too busy/cluttered and the gradient shading on the overlay makes it look a bit like one of those padded muscle costumes) but I give them credit for being easily recognizable as Phantom and I'll be rooting for them as I do every year.
