Thank you very much
Actually I was contemplating entering the cosplay competition this year, nothing fancy, maybe a Shaun of The Dead or Re-Animator costume. The only problem I see though is time as it does usually take me a little while to design a decent costume.
Still though, if push comes to shove, I could always try and convince my friend to come along and in turn, we could don our old street fighter costumes (( we went as Ken and Ryu for Halloween last year )).
