Costume was almost exactly what we were looking for. My 4 year old wanted to be Joker for Halloween but none of the local shops had good Joker costumes, then I found this one. It is great especially if you are looking for the newer Joker look. The mask is pretty creepy though, for a 4 year old anyway. Some of the other kids were a little freaked out by it, but it looks great. The costume is all made in one peice which is  nice to just slip on and not have multiple parts to keep up with. There is a tie string in the back to keep it tight. If you child does not remember to untie before taking it off it was break the tie, but it's very easy to sew and repair if that does happen. (Which I'm sure you can tell did happen to me.)
