They're only instructions were: Whatever you do...don't make his suit black. Because black colored toys don't sell.

Lol. That set of instructions didn't last too long.

Oh yeah. Because Batman's black suit was the worst! What kid wants to play with a superhero that's all dark and brooding while dressed in a black bat suit?

You know what black costume was also a commercial failure? Darth Vader's!
