Love the flash suits. This is the closest image I've found that mirrors the way I imagined them.
Not sure about the helmets and guns, but still sweet work.

Thanks. The props were a bit of a compromise based on what I had handy, but the scene needed something to indicate they'd set battle aside for a moment. I think a lighter-weight helmet (maybe a boxer's sparring helmet) might be more appropriate, but didn't come across anything like that at the time. I wasn't sure how the weaponry would work either, but the kids do talk about how the guns look as if they could do some damage. I did wonder about a back-pack and a lead from it to the guns, but as the flash suits are supposed to respond to some sort of light beam that looked a bit over the top.

Cheers,
Rick.
