We've already seen HAWK in his non-combat uniform and DUKE in civvies. As the black suits only seem to come in to play in the latter part of the movie, we have plenty of screen time to fill with other uniforms & styles.
Unlike the TRANSFORMERS film were putting the actual robots on screen cost a fortune, the Joes (or Cobras) are actors and will be on screen for the majority of the film. Plenty of scope for a few wardrobe changes.

Posts: 945 | It has a very "Black-Ops" feel to it, Overall I'm happy......(I really like the way StormShadow looks, very Devil's Due). I think everyone will like this movie, if what I've heard is true, this movie is the first of 3! | |

| | Plastic lover Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Over The Rainbow! Posts: 3,835 | Im ok with uniformity since that is what the military is all about.
And that is why when I saw Xman I was like why are they all wearing black?
But when it comes to comic/superheroes uniformity in groups don't work too well for me.
Besides, black was what made Baroness and Snake Eyes stand out. You throw those outfits in the mix and those two characters seems to get lost in the mix of things. | |
