RUMOR: First possible description of Paul Bettany’s Vision costume for Avengers: Age of Ultron

So after last night’s Paul Bettany is Vision rumor was quickly verified by Variety, the internet went crazy.

In the rumor posted by The Daily Mail they said that Bettany had:

“They did a series of costume, hair and make-up tests and worked with stuntmen and armourers. – See more at: http://www.followingthenerd.com/ftn_news/rumor-paul-bettany-to-star-in-avengers-age-of-ultron/#sthash.UeitvL16.dpuf

“a series of costume, hair and make-up tests and worked with stuntmen and armourers.

So many fans have been wondering how Vision will look. Well now Comic Book Therapy says their source has seen the Vision costume. The site says both concept art and a costume have been seen hanging around:

“It has a helmet akin to the Iron Man armor, but it’s designed more like a face than a smooth Stark helmet. The iconic yellow and green are present in the design, but it’s more metallic shades than bright ‘comic book colors.’ They said it reminds them somewhat of the T-1000 from Terminator 2 but it’s not as shiny. The yellow metal “liquid” bits seem to light up. This may or may not happen since there are two designs for that section. One lights up the other doesn’t. That’s the only difference. The cape is present, but they say it appears to only “pop out” when in flight mode. The cape sports some similar shades of yellow as the body. The “neck pieces” are the same yellow but they seem to shift positions from “standing” (for lack of a better word) to “flight mode.”

They go on to say that the only part not decided yet is the mask. They want to incorporate Bettany’s face and not to appear as just another Iron Man suit.

What do you think?

We’re still waiting for marvel to officially confirm Bettany.
