There’s a DIY on Youtube to make them.
I think it’s a great idea for kids begging.
Even the PC police can’t bitch.

This was my Halloween costume a few years back...completely impractical for the party I went to, but I had a blast making it. When I showed up and wore it for half the party, nobody knew who I was.

I had a video camera inside to see where I was going, fans to suck fresh air in, and a tube to drink from. I had a red light that lit up when I was videoing, and the whole thing was riveted to an old bicycle helmet. I even had little things inside I could rub my face against if it got itchy so I wouldn't have to take it off...:)

I think that’s a great idea!
Millions are now saying; “I could’ve done that, so why didn’t I?”

Good but not as good as the cardboard box on my head with 2 - 10” dia. holes cut-out (at eye level) and the words “FREE MAMMOGRAMS HERE”.

Apologies to all Freepers - I no longer have the pic.

I saw the same costume at least a decade ago.

LOL, I have seen that one and like it too...surprised you can’t find it on an internet search, repurposed by some other person on the Internet!

C’mon, a fat guy did an el-wire Tron costume probably 15 years ago now.

Somebody could make a huge fortune making large, circular floor mats full of LEDs, with a programmable control, that would make "magic circles". They are very popular in fantasy anime, and somebody has already made clear plastic hand held magic circles.

example:

Kind of funny. I was at Big Lots yesterday and they have the stick on LED strips, battery driven, for $12.00. I bought 2 for the daughter to stick on the 2 little grandkids costumes. They’re long enough to frame a tv and are cuttable without ruining the strip. A couple of those on a costume and you could come out with what this guy created.

But then they’d attract all the chuuni’s.

Then again, maybe that’s a good thing. :P
