Flash Arriving in Arrow

Here is the look of the upcoming Flash in Arrow.  It has been a while since we’ve seen Flash in a full body suit.  Smallville didn’t have him in a costume and if I remember right they actually said that was Impluse.  However, for those old enough or have seen the series from back in the 1990’s, I believe, will remember the Flash series and in it he had a full body costume.  The one above looks right for today’s looks.  Thanks to ICv2 for the heads up.
