With Prime Big Deal Days in full swing and Halloween rapidly approaching, it’s a good time to start thinking about your costume for this year. If you’re into cosplay, the Marvel Legends Series Daredevil Born Again mask and billy club set is a detailed recreation of its onscreen counterpart, and the perfect start to your Matt Murdock get up. During the sale period, it’s down to $97.99 on Amazon, reduced from its $139.99 list price.
Note: This is an Amazon Lightning Deal and has a limited amount available at this price. Once the deal is 100% claimed, the price will go back up.
The 1:1 scale ratio for both the mask and clubs are impressively similar to what you’d see on screen in season 1 of the Disney+ series. The mask is advertised as a one size fits all accessory, and the billy clubs detach into two separate items just like Daredevil’s real trusty weapons. When attached as one club, it measures in at just over 28in. long. The textured surface of the mask gives it a premium feel, and the red eye lenses help with immersion. If you don’t plan to wear it and opt to use it as decor instead, the entire set comes with a handy display stand that won’t take up too much space.
Alternative Matt Murdock Costume Idea
As cool as this mask is, you’ll still need a full suit to pull off a true Daredevil costume. If you’re looking for an easier (and potentially cheaper) costume idea, you could always choose to just be Matt Murdock the lawyer. If you have a decent suit and tie, some red glasses, and a blind cane, you’ve got yourself a solid costume.
The Future of Daredevil: Born Again
Daredevil: Born Again season 2 released this year, earning a 7/10 in IGN’s review by Eric Goldman. “Daredevil: Born Again’s second season is packed with too many characters and subplots, some far better used than others”, he says, “[b]ut the central story of Matt Murdock’s quest to take down Mayor Fisk remains compelling, backed by cool and exciting action scenes.”
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Daredevil: Born Again will end with its third season, as the Disney+ series’ showrunner departed in the middle of post-production.
