This has to be one of the coolest Transformers Costumes I have ever seen. This Bumblebee costume was created by Lionel Lum for Comic Con 2008. He says that it took him 3 months to design and build. The costume is made out of "foamboard, hobby foam, vinyl signage applique, and is held together with tons of hot glue and some duct tape here and there."

He spent 8 hours a day in the suit during the con, and claims it only takes 10 minutes to put on and 5 minutes to remove.

Robot costumes have to be difficult to go to the bathroom in. Especially if you're like me and have the urge to push over people wearing Asimo costumes in the bathroom line at the bar on Halloween.

On paper a carboard robot will always look pretty shitty. But with a coat of paint and a few little touches here and there you can end up with something decent. Not great but good enough to say "yeah I put some effort in... wanna go out back and {insert witty robot pun here}"

You may think that making a costume out of cardboard is cheap and fun but you could be doing serious damage to your kids psychological state. Here's photographic evidence.

This costume probably cost 5c which back in those days would buy you a hair cut, lunch and a train ticket back to the burbs where you lived.
