Hello everyone!
Posting my first thread is definetly intimidating, so bear with me: I’m planning a costume build from the much-loved cult classic The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. I will be specifically trying to replicate the titular character’s costume as seen on the original poster:
Every since Ready Player one hit theaters (it’s okay: I read the book in 2011, but I’ll save talking about my opinion of both for the respective thread), I’ve gotten a ton of film/TV/music itches I have to scratch, and that’s one of the main reasons I finally joined: to itch the costuming/collecting scratch. Back to the subject matter, I’ve always loved this zany, non-sequitur movie and have decided to take hand at recreating the iconic look from the poster (because not only will I have a nice cult classic Peter Weller outfit, but I can also use it for one of many RP1 costumes I have planned). To start, I’ve acquired the “Team Banzai” pin/badge/whatever, which was actually given out as a pre-release item if I’m not mistaken:
I’ll report my other findings as I go along.
