Sorta off topic, although she has said she'd wear it next year - anyone able to point me in the right direction of someone/somewhere I could get a hold of a pink power ranger costume for my wee girl?

 

We went to the Power Rangers Megaforce/20th Anniversary bit on the Sunday before we came in to Collectormania, and when she saw all the folks dressed up (especially the girl dressed as a minion!) she was desperate to come as the Pink Ranger.

 

Lord knows why the toy company only do the Red Ranger outfit, they're totally missing a trick there.

 

Cheers

Not to sound too obvious man, but eBay would be your best bet! :D

The gun is no problem, just spray a toy gun black, then drybrush it silver :D

As far as the jacket, there's a guy on eBay that does custom leather jackets for characters: http://m.ebay.co.uk/search?cmd=SREF&kw=seller%253Aworldofleather&pgn=1&sellerId=worldofleather

 

Dunno if they'd have it

Sheesh!! Is it the Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger pink Ranger?

 

She'd be happy with any as long as it's pink - I saw a Megaforce one from the states, but I'd then need to find a decent mask/gloves/boots to go with it, and again the cost was a bit much for a kids costume.

Yeah man, uhm, I'll trawl about dude. Your best bet might be somewhere like Milanoo or a Japanese costume shop online?

Gotta admit, I think I'd get a kick out of cosplay myself, let alone my wee girl, but it strikes me as a potentially expensive thing?

Plus I'd have no idea what to go as - I'd probably need a mask as I get embarassed real easily!

 

I always get jealous of the guys who do events as Stormtroopers etc, always wanted one of those costumes!

Stormtrooper costumes are about £300-400 and hellishly uncomfortable XD. Honestly, just go for whatever you fancy man! Anything you think will suit you :)

I think for a first cosplay one of the easiest and coolest characters to do would be Eric Draven, thats if you are into The Crow, and in all the years i have been attending i havent seen anyone play Eric Yet, also the Face paint would act as a mask, however like i said in another post the beauty of cosplay is there is so many cool things to try, you can be anyone you wanna be :).

We aren't going for the typical cosplay stuff, far too expensive. May sound daft but we're going to dress up as Andy and Arelene Bellefleur. I'd love to do something like a storm trooper but think a trooper with a zimmer would look slightly ridiculous.

Ok guys, so obviously it was busy though all our plans to meet up before and during the event kinda got shot to nothing.

I got to meet a few of you guys though it would be nice to hang out a bit and get more conversation.

 

So to aid that process i have spoken with a professional photographer who is willing to create a few cool group shots, I'll create an event page for this once more details are in place closer to the time, though i just letting you guys know about my plans so we have plenty of time to get ideas and locations sorted out.
