    Women's panty hose used to come in egg-shaped plastic containers called Leggs. Hence - Leggs Eggs. Sad I know this.

      . Any thought about adding some "sewn-in" muscle to the costume rather than trying to change you?
      blasphemy!

        I have a big Halloween party every year. We fill 5,000 black and orange plastic eggs with prizes, scatter them over 15 dark acres and then make our family and friends find them with flashlights. We run about 200 guests now.

        Last year I was Supergirl. In 2007, I was Godzilla. In 2006, I was Bullwinkle. I have a whole corner of my basement devoted to homemade costumes. I was, thanks to a smart person here, going to incorporate the hundreds of Leggs Eggs that I found at a yard sale this year into a Dalek costume. But health concerns have slowed me down. So instead, I have created a great costume and routine for the Swedish Chef from the Muppet Show. Bork! Bork! Bork!
        We have discontinued our annual party - it was too much stress for Amanda.

        Post pics of your costumes!

        Some of my past costumes and the years worn:
        1998-20051998 Batman (Keatonesque) 1999 Batman (Kilmeresque) 2000 Riddler, Prof X, Batman (keaton Improved), '01 Aquaman, Batman, '02 Spidey, Batman '03 Capt Marvel, '04 Lex, '05 Luke, Superman
        2006 Flash
        2007 part 1
        2007 part 2Superman, Batman, Flash
        2008 Aquaman Improved, Flash, Superman

        I'd forgotten I actually DID dress like Robin - I think this is '97. This was before I was putting any effort into it

        And to prove I was a geek before being a geek was cool - 1979 (made by Gramma)

          Our stores here in Temecula have Halloween stuff out already so a Halloween thread seems okay to me. I can't wait to see this Captain America costume when it's finished. Keep us informed.

          I was thinking of going as a house elf this year. All of my friends are begging me not to so I think I have to just to scar them for life. The costume would be easy to make. I won't have to wear anything else but a gigantic pillowcase, some fake ears and I'm done.

              What are my chances of going as the Incredible Hulk?
              Slim to none...... But you could go as Bruce Banner!

                My friend, Mike, and I are going to do a duo for our secondary costumes. Guess who we are and I give you a prize (not sure what yet - i'm thinking an issue of a comic featuring them and some MM cards).

                too late for prizes - pics below

                                Awesome improvements to my photos! I need to get photoshop or some cheap alternative and learn to do stuff like that.

                                Can you give my hand a Iron Fist glow in the Iron Fist photos?
