So here it is below in full view, check it out and let me know what you think. I personally think that if costume retailer are able to get a replica of this costume made for next year, it’s going to be a really hot item in the Cosplay fan category!
Dragonball is produced by Stephen Chow, and stars Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Jamie Chung, Emmy Rossum, Eriko Tamura and Joon Park. It will make the theatres on April 3, 2009.
It’s actually really cool, because I loved Dragonball Z the cartoon when i was a kid, I think i actually pretty much watched all the seasons, so I am pretty excited about this one. All I can say at this point, is that I am afraid that the movie ends up like Speed Racer, a flock.
Based on the the teaser poster I found at Slashfilm.com, it doesn’t look like the characters look as extravagant as they appear in the original television serie:
All the big “blockbuster” movies are all out at this point and it is time for a recap and take a look at the potential popularity winner for this Halloween. We had already look at some of them a few months ago, so who’s the winner?
The Iron Man costumes have sold like insane for weeks, and now hitting a slow down, but you can expect Iron Man costumes and accessories to sell at a high rate early in the Halloween season, and should become unavailable by mid-September… so don’t wait too long!
This costume has been long waited for… Many of you have posted comments to forum threads and blog posts about it, “where can i find it? how does it look like? Where can i buy one?”… I can only answer one of those questions so far, so without waiting any longer, I have the pleasure to give you an official preview of the Sweeney Todd costume:
So if you were thinking about dressing up as Sweeney Todd for Halloween and did not have any idea what to do about it, this could be your luck. I have unfortunately no idea whom will carry the costume though, but a fair bet would be that any major online halloween costume retailer will, or they’d be missing on a hot product for sure!
With the wave of comic book films hitting the theatres this summer, Marvel Universe costumes are sure to be a hot bet for premiere parties, Comic Cons, and costume parties — possibly well before the Halloween season.
The second movie in the series follows the C.S. Lewis-penned saga of the four Pevensie children who enter the mystical world of Narnia through an old wardrobe during WWII-era Britain. The first film, “The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe” set the stage for the four children to become kings and queens of Narnia, restoring the land to its former glory and warding off the evil White Witch. This time, the children return to Narnia one year later, which is actually several hundred years in Narnian time. Evil has again closed in on the land and it’s up to the Pevensie family to restore the rightful heir to the throne, Prince Caspian.
A family-friendly feature film, the latest Narnia film may prove to be a big hit on the costuming scene this year. This time, there are several different officially licensed costumes for playing dress up or for Halloween. Girls can dress as Lucy in her princess attire and boys have the option of dressing as Peter in his knightly battle armor or as the dashing Prince Caspian himself.
Rabid Star Wars fans will be happy to know that they’ll be able to get even more of a Force Fix on a weekly basis with a new Star Wars television series in the works. The television series will focus on lesser-known characters in the Star Wars cannon instead of the Skywalkers, Solos, and other familiar faces. This will make for a great opportunity to tell new stories without already-established outcomes that fans are well-educated on. New characters will bring an air of suspense to the Star Wars saga and paint the extended universe in a richer, and wider scope. Check here for more details on this new series.
With Grand Theft Auto 4 as the hottest game on the market right now, video games — no matter what your favorite choice of console may be — are bigger and gaining more media attention than ever. Appealing not just to kids, but perhaps especially adults, video games are one of the leading recreational activities in the world.
With their own network, G4 TV and several major conventions, this unique form of media and fandom has captured the attentions and joysticks of millions. While attending some of these conventions, many fans sport elaborate costumes of their favorite game characters. One of the most elaborate of these costumes would be the collector’s edition of the Xbox franchise Halo’s main character, Master Chief, complete with a full suit of futuristic armor and a two-piece helmet and mask.
While Halo is still undoubtedly hot, the long-running Mortal Kombat franchise with its myriad of ninjas, monsters, and mystics is due for another round hitting the shelves in December of this year, just in time for the holiday rush. This time, Mortal Kombat’s cast of characters do battle with notable legends of the DC comic book universe.
One of the most notable new films features Mike Myers making his return to a big screen with a comedy of his own creation, The Love Guru. Myers, best known for the rockin’ “Wayne’s World” and the Austin Powers series of films, attempts to bring a new character to his comic repertoire, with Pitka, the Love Guru, an American who was raised by Indian gurus and comes back to the States to break into the self help market. His first challenge is to reunite a hockey player with his wife who has left him for his biggest on-ice rival. Click here to see the trailer for “The Love Guru.”
Love Guru costumes are already hitting the shelves in preparation for Halloween. Get your guru on with the Love Guru wig and beard with a long brown wig with curled ends and a matching mustache. Dress the part with the Love Guru costume complete with a bright, sunflower yellow caftan shirt trimmed in white that hits to roughly knee level. Also included are white pants and a garland of colorful flowers to wear around your neck as you spread the love! Put on a pair of Birkenstock type sandals.
After an absence from the road, masked musicians Slipknot hits the tour trail again as a headlining act on the Rockstar Mayhem Tour, sponsored by the Rockstar Energy drink. Scheduled to hit major cities across the United States, tour dates can be found here to see if they’re headed to an amphitheatre near you this summer.
With a new album due out in August, Iowa’s gift to the music scene, Slipknot, is a throwback to the days of Kiss, with many of the members until recently having kept their faces hidden from fans for a long time beneath distinctive masks worn by each member. The nine musicians’ mask styles have changed slightly over the years, but still remain variations on the same theme. Shawn “Clown” Crahan usually wears a creepy clown mask, while drummer Joey Jordison favors a Kabuki style mask. Regardless of their style, a menacing, horror theme extends throughout all of the Slipknot faces… And fans love ‘em for it!
