The Batman nipple suit is one of several props coming to auction from the Caped Crusader’s history on the big screen. “But to his credit, Joel Schumacher never apologized for the ‘Bat-nipples.’ In fact, he once told Vice, ‘I’m still glad we did it.’ And I am just as glad we have the chance now to offer this piece of cinema history to someone who can appreciate the costume as much as Schumacher clearly did.” “This is easily the most famous – and infamous – Batman costume ever designed, as evidenced by the fact that all these years later, it continues to make headlines every time Tim Burton and George Clooney get asked about it,” Heritage Auction’s executive vice president Joe Maddalena said in a statement.
The sale is part of Heritage’s Hollywood & Entertainment Signature Auction, taking place July 22-23. Clooney’s infamous Batman nipple suit is up for auction with an opening bid set at $40,000. George Clooney’s Batman costume from Joel Schumacher’s 1997 “Batman & Robin” might be the most ridiculed get-up in superhero movie history thanks to its pronounced plastic nipples, and now the suit can be yours thanks to Heritage Auctions.
