Thinking of a BIG Halloween costume...

[Prussian to the Iron]

Ok, so, turning 15 in April, this will be my last year trick-or-treating (mostly just following my brother around). So, I wanna do something that's just super cool and amazing and everyone would go like "Holy ****! That guy is cool as hell!"

Now I was thinking of dressing up as Gene Simmons, but I don't have a guitar. I'm not sure about Gamestops return policy on items (thinking of buying a used Rock Band guitar the day before, then the day after returning it)

Does anyone have any good ideas?

[Hooahguy]

Gene Simmons? bah. lame. id go as Angus Young.
wait, arent you Jewish?

plus Gene was a bassist, IIRC.

[Prussian to the Iron]

Yeah, I'm jewish too.

Angus young owuld be cool, but I'm tryin to find something that I wouldnt need to get some sort of musical instrument (real or not) for; if nothing else i'll check and see if gamestop will let me buy a used guitar and return it a couple days later.

I know hes a bassist. but he's awesome as #$%*

Just go as a Tusken Raider. Really simple, doesn't require much voice effort, and the mask is sold commercially.

I'm trying to be something that evryone thinks is cool, not me and however many starwars fans there are. That would abeen a great idea for the convention a few years back though...To the "Time Machine"*!

My boy is in love with Left 4 Dead, so I'm trying to think of some sort of L4D themed costume. Which he would think is the bomb. Maybe Bill?

I saw a really neat picture from Comic-Con about somebody dressed as a Tank. Can't really remember it exactly, but I know they had the arms and maybe something attached to his back that made it look more bulky/Tank-like. If I didn't have my costume already planned out (I'm 19 BTW, so you can forget all this tomfoolery about being "too old" for Halloween next year), I would try something like that. :yes:

[Prussian to the Iron]

lol, you should make him a Boomer. that would be funny as hell, especially if you got him to carry around a big water gun, hidden in his mask, that shot green slime everywhere whenever he yelled "BOOM!"

my little brother is being a roman legionaire.

Jewish eh?

[Hooahguy]

a gene simmons costume is way to hard. good luck with that.
you can also go with Slash. jeans, top hat, fake guitar, leather jacket, youre golden.

dude. that tank is awesome.

i never liked final fantasy honestly...

and a gene simmons costume wouldnt be that hard; hell, 2 years ago we made a Ritterbruder costume (you know, the one from Kingdoms that has those cool wings on his helmet?) plus a shield and spear. year before that, I was an Uruk-Hai (damn i was awesome. we really got that helmet perfect, plus added some cool spikes to the armor, and of course a white hand)
