The economy sucks - costuming on the cheap thread

Heres an idea ranger fans for those who dont have the money to put down for a real expensive costume because halloween is right around the bend. Lets try to post the alternative. Heres my first suggestion.

all you need is red gloves and red shoes and your set. 35 for the helmet and changers and 35 for the suit 70 comparable to the cheap commercial sets.
 
Last year I chronicled my cheapest ever Batman costume:

This year I am, again, cheapin' it up. I've got two costumes in the works.

Wikus from District 9 is a great option. I whipped up a great Prawn hand out of foamies and brush on plastidip to rubberize it.

I'm also working on a budget Mad Hatter from the new Burton movie.
 
I did my Bank Heist Joker costume for $7. $4 for the suit at Goodwill, and $3 for the shirt. I payed about $20 for the bag. And I'm going to wear my make-up. So total cost = $27. :D
