Halloween Costume's 2012 edition
 
So Halloween is quick approaching, only 33 days away. Time to start thinking of what you're going to dress up as if you do that kind of thing. That is also if you don't already know. I've found that those who still dress up usually know much farther in advance what they will dress up as.

Like I've been toying with different ideas sense last year. Only narrowed it down about two months ago to have new ideas enter the mix. It wasn't tell today that I had committed. Wondering how many of my fellow dromers are going to take part in dressing up, and what as.

As for me I'm going to do Captain Jack Harkness from Doctor Who / Torchwood. I'll post some pictures once I get all the pieces. It would be fun to hear and see what you guys are going to do.

TheCanadiandrome 09-28-2012 01:54 PM

going as the Count! lol!

ComicBookBoy 09-28-2012 02:31 PM

I've always wanted one of those giant ape costumes, but they're way too expensive. And I know if I got one, I'd end up wearing it all the time, so it's probably best that i don't get it.

Cowabunga Carl 09-28-2012 04:14 PM

It's awesome to see other people respond. I love Halloween. Easily my favorite holiday. Hope to see some pictures after halloween.

Lethal Lullaby 09-28-2012 06:44 PM

I wanted to sew myself a lolita dress for halloween, or a victorian style dress but... things came up. And
Spoiler:
money issues
so I'm not sure what i'm goin to be.. :ohwell:

zkarlette 09-28-2012 08:05 PM

I've been trying to finish two, a steam punk and a poison Ivy costume but I honestly haven't put enough time to it. If I don't finish either one I'll probably end up going as princess peach again.:ohwell:

Cowabunga Carl 09-28-2012 08:49 PM

Princess Peach is cool. I thought about trying to do a Mario theme with my roommate and his GF. But she would have to be Daisy as he is tall and skinny and I'm the chubby one.

Though I've never let body shape dictate costume. I'm one of the few I guess who does this.

Hannah 09-29-2012 12:29 PM

An Amish girl (on Rumspringaaaaa.) Drugs, alcohol, and Amish garb.

Gonna get ****ed up at the Lakeview Halloween parade.

Basie, probably.

Never really dressed up for Halloween besides ages 8-10. I might vlog about it instead.

Cowabunga Carl 09-29-2012 03:36 PM

So tracking down a suitable coat might prove a problem again this year. THe upside about Captain Jack is there are plenty of times he coes coatless. I got my vortex manipulator ordered which is the important part.

cowabunga14 09-29-2012 11:27 PM

I'd like to dress up as John Murdoch from Dark City, but I'm not sure if that's gonna work out since renting anything costume-wise is a bit of a hassle around here.

Dracula lol left it to the imagination :D

HeavyMetalCarebear 09-30-2012 12:31 PM

I have a few costumes from previous years in my closet (Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Saturn and The Baroness) so I need a new one for this year. Wanted Super Mario but they only had one big enough for 3-4 year olds....I need one big enough for a 7 year old to fit me.

Haha.. So where is this party exactly?..:razz:

Scud 10-02-2012 08:00 AM

My son said he wants to be a ninja turtle for Halloween this year, And since you hardly ever see a turtle alone..............

Jester 10-02-2012 08:10 AM

Splin...ter?

Candy Kappa 10-02-2012 08:21 AM

I'll be revisiting my Elven adventurer costume, and make it better.

Hahah awesome!:lol::lol:
So that's the main reason to get a son

cACHI 10-04-2012 08:11 PM

am friend is getting married on Halloween so ill be there

BubblyShell22 10-05-2012 09:17 AM

I'm not dressing up at all as I haven't done that for years, but if I did, I'd definitely try to go as Leonardo.

Slade 10-05-2012 12:08 PM

Father in Law passed last Halloween day. We aren't doing Halloween anymore.

Though I kinda want my boy to dress up and have his fun. I haven't dressed up since I was 12.

cACHI 10-05-2012 03:30 PM

you shouldn't let that stop you from doing it. The whole point of Halloween is to show tribute to the other worldly being which now your father in law is one of them.

When my father died 5 years ago i started to make zombies......not sure how that fits together....

GK Punk 10-05-2012 08:37 PM

I'm gonna hit a party either as Logan from X-Men Origins (my go to costume) or as Dipper Pines from Gravity Falls. Haven't decided yet.

That choice aint on me.

BubblyShell22 10-06-2012 12:40 PM

I"m just to the point where I don't give a sh*t about Halloween or any other stupid holiday. They're all meaningless to me.

Zany Orange Dude 10-06-2012 01:49 PM

I'm going to be either Mikey again or Link from The Legend of Zelda.:tcool:

Archon_Turtle 10-19-2012 08:20 PM

liking it loving it

The Stryker 10-20-2012 10:05 PM

It took you 4 months to find a Men's Warehouse?

Moving awwwwn. No dress up for me, the monsters don't usually wear costumes anyway. This year is gonna be kinda sh*tty now that I'm out of Orlando. My niece usually got up to wacky stuff on the day and it was always fun watching her be a complete bitch to other kids. Gonna probably hang with Katie's niece and nephew but those kids aren't trained to be amazing yet.

If I can score some candy cigarettes or whatever they call them now it'll be a success.

Lol, I wish you could find screen accurate costuming at Men's Warehouse.

BubblyShell22 10-22-2012 08:44 AM

Looks good, AT. What are you going as?

Was hoping more people here would know from the picture. Heh.

The tenth doctor. From doctor who.

BubblyShell22 10-22-2012 04:52 PM

Ah, I see. I'm not into Doctor Who, so I wouldn't know that. But that's pretty cool.

Yes! Tennant rules :D

discordiatookie 10-26-2012 05:39 PM

A chestburster victim. So far i've got the chestburster paper machied, just need to paint and draw some details on it. It'll be by no means amazing, but I love the home made costume look :D I've also got an old green shirt which now has a coupla Alien patches on it (USS Nostromo) and a white t-shirt for underneath to cover in fake blood and have the xenomorph poking his wee head through...

mysterycolor 10-27-2012 10:58 AM

The Stryker 10-27-2012 11:04 AM
