3) what do i make his face out of if i intend to breath while in costume?!

i did a mysterio costume once and his head is fully covered (pretty much a fishbowl) and all i used was some thin material over the of the head feature and that seem to work fine

"GOKI" (powerglide owner!) i got references, but they're all different and i really don't know what one i should go by. wheels at back, wheels on side ect ect. i want tf fans to be happy, not ring me up and say 'dickhead the wheels go on his ears!' or something. get me!? I was going fine until one day I relised 'and when i lie down, my foot turns into my leg, and the front half of the car... where are my thighs going?' Convention? what convention? how do i get 3 cubic meters of bot on a plane. and there are no convention in townsville, because we suck. i'll tell you when i finished it and you can come see it in person!

Thankyou "Blackie" something i can work with. I get lost in bunnings... Its like the parts section from a transformer chop shop... (heeehehehehhhh.
you can pimp out a transformer with bath! sunstreaker can have a bath in the back!)

"Loophole", what is a mystero? i was born during the age of SEGA so anything eairler is beyond me! Did you happen to look like a robber with a stocking on your head?

thanks for your ideas. it's going to be a bit shitty cause i'm having trouble covering mesh, yoga mat and cardboard. and you can see everything through the yellow material

sad. so sad. but keep ideas coming, i will add pics to this thread of progress if you want, or just start a new one

what ever works.

If you were in Japan, or a member of the SCA (or some similar medieval/Renaissance recreational society) - where people nitpick you if your costume is off by a stitch (and I've seen this happen), then yeah, sure. But non-Japanese cosplayers are far more forgiving.

Australian cosplayers aren't as hardcore as the Japanese or French.

WWGD - What Would Griffin Do? He'd hire a truck and drive it down, just like he did when he transported his entire 2000+ figure TF collection from Brisbane to Sydney for OzToyCon 2006!
