I love the first one you posted, the revolution costume,  but I would keep the thigh high boots. Many people don't think that thigh high boots or sashes look good on males, but I disagree. Mr. Sinister and Gladiator wear thigh high boots and they look great. Without the thigh high boots, the costume doesn't say phoenix to me at all. It might as well be another kind of character altogether. Also, since since we are talking phoenix here, I just personally think blood red looks better, but that is just my opinion. The other costumes are really cool too. The white one is another of my favorites from the ones you posted.
