So, I'm thinking about Halloween for this coming year. I have basically 3 costumes perpetually on standby (although I some require some minor upgrades).
1.) Indiana Jones -- the crowd favorite. Tough to go wrong with this one. Only thing is I've worn it for the last two years and with the mixed feelings about KotCS out there, not sure if I want to go as this.
2.) Han Solo -- classic, but often not really recognized as well as Indy. Plus, I want to get new pants for it and maybe a new vest. Still, a good costume.
3.) Slash (from G'n'R and Velvet Revolver) -- another crowd favorite. Haven't done this one in quite a few years.
4.) Build something new -- I've always been partial to doing a Ghostbuster costume, but I refuse to do it anything other than perfect and that will require way more time and cash than I have. I could probably do James Bond, but have no desire to wear my tux to a Halloween party and have some ******* spill beer on it. Plus, I'd just be a guy in a tux until I pulled out the PPK. I prefer to go as unique characters (or something unique even if it isn't a character -- ie: a ghostbuster or stormtrooper or whatever). Basically, I'm looking for something that won't be TOO expensive, will be easily recognizable, relatively popular, and something that resonates with me personally. You guys won't know what that last one is, but throw out whatever ideas you've got, based on the other requirements.
So, what do you think? Anyone have any thoughts? Anyone? ......Anyone? ...........Bueller?
