Wow! That is good! ^_^ Tons of work and sweat went into this one. That's obvious.

But I still like Lance Ikegawa. I wish he had a site. >_<

Maybe it's time for someone to make a transformable VF-19 costume?
Or maybe even Priss' BGC suit...

My friend is already trying to make a BGC suit out of vaccuum formed plastic and mechanical parts. It's a pain in the butt to build your own vaccuum former.

Yeah, this was a huge thing on the mailing lists when he finally completed it, and it definitely made a splash at Anthrocon. He was part of the con staff, though, so he couldn't compete in the con's invention contest -- he had it for a few walkarounds and the masquerade, which I believe was non-competitive.

A couple other notes he made:

- He designed the costume in mind of emergency medical technicians, just in case something went horribly wrong with the suit and he had to be cut out of it.

- Shipping the costume from Colorado to Philadelphia, PA (where the con was) was several hundred dollars in itself. He said it exceeded US$600.

And, just additionally, the roach is a bit of an inside joke at Anthrocon.

The guy's done some awesome work. And I supposedly don't live too far from him, but I've never met the guy -- even if we both have a good friend (which I know from the anime club) that relays costuming info/doings between him and me.
