Anyone know who made these Batcuffs?


Image

I can see a few differences in these versus the screen used. These are steel with chrome plating, and the edges are very sharp instead of being rounded off.

Any idea where they came from?

Re: Anyone know who made these Batcuffs?


Those cuffs were sourced by Corey Sosner in NJ back in the early 2000's. Corey was Hardbalz or Hardbalz12. In the early days he and Lou Mo, Brucewayne131 were good buddies but had a falling out when Corey accused Lou of popping some of his items. Around '04 Corey decided to try and run Lou out of business by offering belts at real cheap prices (Lou was known for his awesome belts). In the end Corey took a bunch of orders, either failed to ship or sent out junk and got banned. Pretty soon after that Lou decided he'd had enough and left the hobby as well. (I wound up with most of Lou's stuff, including his suit).
All of that said, I believe those cuffs came from me, there weren't too many sets out there (they were $500 in 2003). Did I sell them to you Greg? I can't remember who got them, it was like 5 1/2 years ago.

The above isn’t my photo but I can tell it’s the same build. I just got my pair this week, possibly from Corey. At least the eBay seller was in NJ. And yeah they weren’t cheap but it’s incredibly hard to find these.

Thanks for the info and backstory. I knew someone here would have the deets :)
