The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

For me the ultimate in costuming comfort hasn't gotten any better than my Spartan get up. 300 not Halo. A cape and underwear...brilliant!

Maybe YOU'RE comfortable, but I'm sure not! You Spartan guys make me feel... inadequate somehow.

:lol:

Most comfortable is the basic BSG. 2 shirts, one sleeveless, one a tank top. Pair of bdu pants.

Pretty comfy.

My "just out of hypersleep" impression was pretty cool and comfy last year. :wink:

Kinda like the 300 Spartan... minus the cape. :lol:

I'll have something similar this year- not USCM related though. :wink:

Just a heads up that I won't be. Too many costume changes... too little time.

As it stands I'm already bringing 5 different costumes. :shock:

Ha, it must be the spears. Chicks dig the spears...and swords...and codpieces. But cmon, you know you get a lot of love in your USCM gear too. We're warriors all. Just fully armored or half naked ones :lol:

Damn expensive hobbies. Combining airsoft and costuming results in a plan to put together BSG colonial marine gear (Planetside combat)

So

USCM
BSG marine

"It's not that we don't want to be friends anymore... but we have so many more costumes now. You know how it is." lol.

We barely fit Troy one year. And Glen was riding back with us. Tight to the fit.

Yeah. Like a lot of us here it's one, two or three outfits a day. Over a 4 day con that can add up to no space in the car. Soon I won't even be able to fit, it'll just be my costumes taking the trip :lol:

That's not for another 250 years- have some patience! :roll:

It's "Transporter" by the way.


I wanna know where the flying cars are!

Blade Runner... 2019... Flying cars.

BTTF II... 2015... Flying cars. :evil:

Transporters for Star Trek - teleporters in general. I'm not fussy, they don't HAVE to be Star Trek-like. :lol:

Oh in that case teleporters have been around since the 1950s...

According to The Fly at least.

They don't really work well though. :wink:

Decided not to jack the Joe/Cobra thread any longer. :wink:

I just snapped these off...

I've also got the quiver with arrows but forgot to put it on. :lol:

I had a helluva time putting the damn Buddha necklace on by myself. :evil: :lol:

I'll probably leave the M60 at home for D-Con. I already asked around if the bow would be ok. And I have a plastic toy knife for my sheath.

So an update on what I'm bringing...

PIG Gunner
Dress Blues
Service C
Space Aviator
Rambo
Recondo

6 COSTUMES?!? :shock:

Oi Vay! :roll: :lol:

It also looks like my Captain Kirk will have to stay home this year. :cry:
