Halloween 2012. What is Everyone Working on?

I'm torn between Jack Harkness, Peter Parker or Avengers' Captain America. Does anyone know the quality on the following Captain America costume on eBay?

I'm in the works of ordering my 200+ gram paper to get to work on my first ever pep of my Warhammer 40k UltraMarine suit! Going to try and get the girlfriend to help me out as she an amazing artist and will probably end up painting the whole thing \o/

It will be like this, but without the robot arm:

Also going to create a bolt pistol and chainsword! If I don't get it done in time for halloween I'll use it for next years Japan Expo here in Paris or go to the local bar and get my friend to dress up in his Stormtrooper suit to give the locals something to visually enjoy while we have a pint or two!
 
Hiya Saint! Looks awesome and you might know me as the former president of the Spokantina *wink* Nice you see you here!


Anyway, I'm hoping to get a bunch of elven costumes done for this Halloween season and for the opening of "The Hobbit" this December. I just bought 30 yards of silk velvet! So yummy! Also, I have Padme's Episode II Purple "Elizabethan/Nefertiti" Gown almost done, with 100 hours of hand embroidery in on the sleeves and front tabard. Now I just need to get the farthingale to the right circumference so I can draft the rest of the skirt pattern. The burnout velvet bodice is almost done with all of the piping and the beaded medallion at the back is almost completed too. I think the only thing I'm missing is a good brocade or jacquard for the sleeve linings.

I am building a Storm-trooper armor via pepakura. Then I am gonna harden it, bondo it, sand it, paint it and detail it... And after all that work, I will probably sleep with it!:love My E-11 blaster will be made from PVC and aluminum, cause I don't have a gun-smith at my disposal. Accuracy is my goal. Anything less on therpf.com is an insult to the brave men and women who populate this web-site.
 
Almost done with Iron Man Mark III. Wife has me opening door and handing out candy, cant wait to see how that goes.
 
I'm just about to collect materials for a Bane (TDKR) outfit for this year. I've seen an awful lot of great outfits here and on Reddit, but I've got to find a good starting place rather than just rush headlong into the costuming.
 
Going as a member of Star Gate Command, got my old Air Force BDU's, ordered the SG Patches, have the tactical holster just need a vest and am working on a possible Pep Jaffa Staff Weapon to carry.
 
Wrestlemania 7 Macho Man Randy Savage.

Hardest part has been finding an accurate purple and white spandex. I'm going to test painting some purple spandex to get the correct-ish pattern but if it doesn't workout so well I'll use an alternative and just have it be highly inspired by the Wrestlemania 7 costume.
