I said, "Hey, you could switch some of the colors around and maybe add a quick cape, and you'd be close enough so that a four-year-old wouldn't know the difference." I whipped up a quick color scheme for her to follow...

And, sure enough, the kids at the party didn't think twice about Robin's costume being a tad off-model, and my co-worker was quite happy with how the party turned out.
The moral of the story is: don't get too hung up on the geekery. If a kid can't even tell substantial costume changes, they're not going to worry about continuity, much less whether or not the characters are completely consistent from one story to the next.
