Had this video shot and edited by a booth at the comic con, just got it emailed to me today. Turned out awesome! (aside from a couple wardrobe malfunctions of the hands not holding together right, so I had to keep 'em together with my fingers...)

Wow, the last few days have been insane trying to get my suit ready for yesterday's convention (Central Canada Comic Con). Ran out of time to get proper straps and buckles put on, so I went with adhesive velcro. Sadly the adhesive does not...
