I must admit I'm totally envious of you guys over the pond when it comes to Halloween? you really seem to embrace the night with all your costumes.
It could be just where I'm from down south (UK) but it's mainly for the kids trick or treating etc...
I'm hoping next year to pullout all the stop's with either my Fett or TK.
Jayjaded - looks like your Joker came out great but the 4th pic seems a little close for comfort?
Great work everyone! I trotted out ESB v3.0. A few tweaks left in the vest area but it's getting there. Had great time just hanging around the neighborhood handing out candy with a few friends and their kids.
Me and my lady(the nurse Joker) hit up 3 different parties and hung out at both of our jobs(we work at bars) over the course of the weekend. What a busy 2 days!!
Great times were had by all. I think we have the process of getting me in and out of the suit down to a science. We can put the whole thing on in about 8 minutes. Not bad for a couple of first-timers!
Here's a few shots from the weekend.
I'm also waiting on some prints from a professional photographer that had a back-drop set up at one of the parties. I can't wait to see how those pix turned out.
We saw a few other Star wars greats. Scout trooper and an Obi Wan from the new Clone Wars. Also ran into a fem-stormie in the middle of the street in downtown Chicago at a crosswalk. She took our pictures but by that time, my camera was buried somewhere in one of my pockets.
It was my first time out trooping so it was a great experience to see peoples reactions over the course of the night. Lots of big smiles and a lot of shouting. "OH MY GAWD!!!! IT'S BOBA FREAKING FETT!"
The only draw back to the whole thing is being in such crowded places with heavily intoxicated people. I spent so much time being nervous that I wasn't able to have as much of a good time as I normally would at a party. Oh well. Still was an awesome weekend.:cheers
Here's a few from my Halloween. This was my first night actually getting to put my stuff on. I had some gauntlet issues and no jet pack, but people loved the costume. My wife as Padme looked awesome too! All my friends that I talked into the Star Wars theme came through and I think they look great as well. Fun Night!
This is my Fett so far. It is by far not complete nor accurate but I will have the jet pack done, a better belt and a better tailored suit next October.
I had an interesting time. I lost a costume contest on a fluke where no one heard my name called in my second round, so the announcer thought the crowd jipped me and the crowd thought the announcer screwed up. So I got a huge amount of love from the crowd the rest of the night because of it...
here are a couple of pictures...
I won, 5-4 vs Indiana Jones!
There was an Obi-Wan at the bar who happened to be a friend of a friend, it was hilarious when he showed as neither of us had any idea. So of course a fight photo was required. Fett is so awesome he can beat lightsabers with his or in this case, her fists.
