1. Richter's default costume: Again, do I even need to say it? | 1. Richter's default costume: Again, do I even need to say it? | ||
2. Richter's 2nd costume: Red shirt, White edges on shirt, Black Undershirt, White Gloves, White pants, Black boots. I said, before, that this could not have been Christopher Belmont or the rival from the cancelled Bloodletting. What I saw, however, was a reference to [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/a/a4/Justefull.gif/revision/latest?cb=20080812120254 Juste Belmont]. I said it was because of the fact that Juste Belmont's character has been depicted as wearing a Red shirt with White edges, Black undershirt, White gloves, White Pants, and Black Boots. The part that got me to believe it was Juste is the color of the boots. I said, "When so many of Richter's alternate costumes change the color of the boots, why wouldn't the color change to light brown to reference Christopher in Rebirth or the rival from Bloodletting? The fact that they are Black boots in particular sells me on it being Juste Belmont." I am still confident in my evidence for it being Juste, though now I do believe that it could also be a reference, vague or otherwise, to Christopher Belmont, even though Christopher is nowhere to be found in Ultimate, and Richter's red alt. is used for Juste's fight. | 2.

3. Richter's 3rd costume: Purple shirt, Greenish-grey Undershirt, White gloves, Black pants, and Yellow Purple and Black boots. Before the HD pictures of Richter's Alts were posted to the wiki, I, as well as many others believed that this was a reference to [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/a/a0/Bloodletting_richter.gif/revision/latest?cb=20090326031802 the 32X sprite of Richter] from the unreleased Castlevania game. Though a HUGE stretch with NO evidence to support it, it was the best we could come up with. Scrolling over Richter's undershirt with a color-grabbing tool reveals that his undershirt is a faded out green color. This green, coupled with his purple tunic, white gloves, and boots with yellow on them, match nothing else in Castlevania except for [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/b/b1/Shaft.gif/revision/latest?cb=20170722230810 Shaft], the priest who cursed Richter after Rondo of Blood. Though this could still be a stretch, there is definitely more evidence going for this than [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/a/a0/Bloodletting_richter.gif/revision/latest?cb=20090326031802 the 32X sprite], which, mind you, never had an ounce of Purple, Yellow, or Green. | 3.

8. Richter's 8th costume: White shirt, Red edges on shirt, Black undershirt, Black pants, Black boots with White coverings and Tan flaps. Before the final build of the game, this Alt. was just white and black, leading most to assume that is was just Soma Cruz or Alucard, and even now, with the general consensus being that it is Leon Belmont, some still believe it is Soma, because of the white. As I just mentioned, the majority of people, me included, believe that this is a reference to [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/9/96/Cloi-leon-belmont5.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20080227224550 Leon Belmont], because of the Black, long sleeve undershirt with a shirt that is White and has Red on the edges of it. Leon's pants are also Black and striped with white, and his Black boots have Light-Tan flaps and White coverings around the vamps. All of these things are nearly one-to-one with Richter's Alt. meaning that there are no further arguments to be made against this one. | 8.
