[BurntJuiceTV]

I. Love. This.

[latino13x3]

its funny how they wobble

[christina8000]

So that's what It's like to be a lego.

[LegoAnimationDude]

Awesome!!! You probably noticed I like LEGO because of my username.

[outdoormikek]

We made it. There is some information concerning the construction under the video title.

[MrKnexguy123]

how do you do that did you buy it or did you make it if u made it do u have instructiobs i love lego

[outdoormikek]

He sees through the eyes. There is a piece of shear black cloth taped to the inside of the head. The darkness inside the head prevents anyone outside from seeing in but allows my son to easily see out. The can be purchased at a fabric and hobby store.

The eyes are just thin, flexible black-colored foam purchased from a hobby store.

Sorry but I have yet to post full instructions

[wylishar]

Does your son see through the eyes or the mouth. Also, how did you do the eyes and the mouth. Do you have complete instructions posted anywhere?

[wylishar]

Also, I think this costume is just fantastic!

[Conpark2011]

Wow....

[Aznar245]

How does he see outta that thing? wish I had that as a kid.

[JelbournFTW]

Cool but looks kinda dangerous

[TheLegotronic]

IT'S SO AWSOME THAT I WANT TO MAKE ONE THE SAME WAY!

[ElementStorms]

nice work!!!!

[AHalloweenDirectory]

How is the head made?

[TheTrainguy10]

will high density foam work?

[outdoormikek]

@TheTrainguy10 It may be difficult to shape the high density foam. You may need to roll a large sheet and glue the ends together. The foam I used is the pink foam insulation available at hardware stores.

[bioniclenck]

The head is sideways

[family171]

at 0:01 a lady says wanna go potty

[carldude99]

Someone needs to shove that kid

[fireball611]

where do you live? my mom saw someone with a costume like that

[akreit]

Can u make a vid showing how u did that I mean that's wat I would want to be for Halloween

[twsimgamer82]

That costume is really neat, but I bet it would take you an hour just to walk a couple blocks up the street while Trick or Treating. XD

[standerlovespoop]

omg THAT IS SOOOOOOO AMAZING I LOVE THIS VIEDO!!!!!

[Nambub]

[lludwick]

Please post more information about how you made the body parts, including the hands!

This is the best lego man costume for kids!

[legocat0306]

[outdoormikek]

@legocat0306 We made it for Halloween

[bigtrevvy]

[AwesomeLegoMaster]

[atagon1]

is it hard to move with it on

[outdoormikek]

@atagon1 The foam is slightly flexible but the range of motion is limited

[hotchaz44]

u can see the foot at 0:25

[FreshTiIIDeathh]

@hotchaz44 You can see the foot throughout the whole video dumbass. Some people are just so ignorant. -facepalm-

[GhoulMine1]

awesome

[david5492]

lolololoololllollololooooololo­lololololololoolololololololol­ololololololololololololololol­ololo... constantly ETERNITYS later ... loloololololololololololololo.­.. hes cute give the costum some counter-strike gear

[Keven144]

cool i want to trick or trade with that

[killer400100]

@Keven144 wtf trick or trade isnt it trick or treat? lol

[chanezzie4981]

hi so im getting busy.. the fabric store here only sells medium density do you think this will work?

[outdoormikek]

I believe this foam should work. You will need some rigidity to the foam to help keep the shape. I would buy a small piece to test if the foam can be effectively glued together. I used #M 74 glue, the fabric store may also have a similar product, it's a spray that's organge in color.

[aclarkislost]

cool, can the knees bend at all??? cause if not that's gotta be hard to walk around in

[outdoormikek]

The knees do not bend but the foam is slightly flexible and there is some room in the legs to move around but you can't sit down while wearing the costume.

[chanezzie4981]

where do you live? i would love to pay someone to make me this. maybe i would even ship it.

[chanezzie4981]

how much did the materials cost??

[dleeis]

Wow this is great. I have been working on one of these for my 9 yr old son!!! ARGGGH! Can you please tell me how you made the hands and legs? Thanks much!

[outdoormikek]

The arms are a heavy weight blue sweat shirt. The legs and torso are made from 3/4 inch foam that I found in a fabric store. The white foam was glued together with 3M 74; its a spray and orange in color. Once the torso and legs were glued together, I spray painted the entire the parts with Krylon H20 spray latex paint. The hands and head were made from sheets of pink foam insulation glued together with 3M 77. I stacked the sheets and cut/sanded to form.

[fashionistakim]

how many stacks of insulation sheets did you use for the head? and are you saying you used nothing else but the upholstery foam for the legs??? i am desperate for your answers...i am having a hell of a time making this same costume for my son......

[outdoormikek]

For the head, I don't recall the number of pink insulation sheets but try to buy the 2-inch thick sheets to speed the stacking. The legs are the white foam, the only addition was at the top, I glued "foam-core" board across the top of the legs and cut an oval hole for the waist. Foam-core is an art store supply item.

[markf1988]

woaah this is awesome! How did you get the foam so smooth on the edges? Haveyou got like a step by step guide on how to make this please!

[WolfyTV]

I am going to be one minifigs!!!!

[Astraygundamredframe]

how resistent is pink insulation iam making armor out of it and want to know how hard it is

[fideltxu]

Amazing!! How did you make the head?

[outdoormikek]

Thanks for the feedback. The head is made from sheets of pink foam insulation stacked up and glued together. Let me know if you need more details.

[XxTodesengelxx]

now THAT is cool. I wish my dad were as creative when I was little. It looks exact.
