What is a good costume for someone 6'-6" tall, 225#

add another vote for Predator!

I 2nd that. And get a Crown and be KING OF THE JAWAS!!!:love

I've actually thrown the idea around of either doing a Jawa "on steroids," or the same with an Ewok, that's like ripped and angry lol

If i did the Ewok, I'd also carry a bloody stormtrooper arm

 

[Rocker]

Mini Me.......or Predator!

 

[franz bolo]

That's the first thing that came to mind! The Kurgan!!

The Punk Rock or the Older version!

FB

the kurgan lol (and a selfish plug)

The Heavy Weapons Guy from Team Fortress 2

If you're OK on stilts, you could do an awesome werewolf from Underworld.

If you're scrawny, definitely an Alien.
If you're muscly, then Predator or an Arnie role - Running Man would be a good one.

Again if you're muscly, or can suck in the gut, almost any of the unit in Predator - They're all larger than life and massive types.


Can you post a photo?
Maybe there's an easy look-alike for you?

Just about any super hero is 6' or more.
Robots (like transformer, voltron, Iron Giant)
Grimace
Big Bird
Barney
Godzilla
Gamra
Any Titan
Zeus
Chewbacca
Young Frankenstein
Frankenstein
Creature from Black Lagoon
Hill Giant
Fire Giant
Stone Giant
Draconian
The Devil from the movie "Legend"
walking Tree
A Chair (I saw this done once where the guy dressed up as a reclining chair and sat in the room and waited for someone to sit on him then jump up and grab them. Very funny)
A building that turns into a robot (from the movie Big)
A Yeti
Hulk
Abomination
Red Hulk
Galacticus
I could go on but I won't lol

Good luck with your costume.

Bigfoot might be a good one or maybe Harry from Harry and the Hendersons.

 

[Laffo]

Me.

Laffo.

 

[pharon66]

I'm 6'5", so basically you are good with almost any robot, creature, or alien.

It's a challenge finding a character to do without looking "out of place" ....any ideas?

-Ss

TMP IRONMAN - GENERATION 3 - VERSION 1
This should be big enough!

 

[Bowelrock]

Real simple.. PREDATOR

 

[Raffles]

Sabertooth? Or dress as Gandalf and get some average size guys to be hobbits! I'm 6'4'' myself so I know how this can be an issue. FYI proportionately most manga characters are in the 6'5'' range.

 

[T2SF]

Harry from Harry and the Hendersons! Or the Predator. Most Predators are shorter guys. Do the genre some justice!

 

[maboot38]

Two Pat Roach roles:
The Thuggee guard from Temple of Doom.
The airplane mechanic from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

6' 6" would be a great size for Yoda!

If you are that tall and like to cosplay...do something that most others will find imposable, your biceps and thighs are longer than most. I specialize in large costumes and the one thing i cannot change is the length of my biceps/thighs. Stilts will cover the forelegs, and arm extensions will extend the forearm, but only someone who is BIG will be able to get the proportions right. Oh and if you want something truly awesome, then do something that has not been done before. Don't waste your height on anouther pred or darth, Thats all been done( and very well by some of the people right here ). good luck!

I wish i was that tall, i'd be able to go as one of my comic characters lol. chris Reeves was 6'5 so Superman for sure, a predator for sure, a ton of anime characters if you're into it.

I had a 6' 5"-6" friend show up to a Halloween party dressed as Whinny the Poo.

He was the hit of the party.

 

[Guyvierion]

Just dont be a storm trooper! I'm 6'8 and did that, and all i got was "Aren't you a little short to be a storm trooper?" all day haha!
