Cardboard Gear Rex: A Metal Gear Solid Halloween Costume

Here's my Halloween costume, some more information and some poor photos coming soon to http://sites.google.com/site/metalgeargander

A few years ago I made the Metal Gear Rex papercraft that was a promo for Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. So when this Halloween rolled around, I figured "Hey, I've built a 1:100 scale Rex out of paper and white glue. Why not go for 1:8 this time around?"

@CardboardGear nice costume, dude. what prompted you to make it in the first place?

[CardboardGear]

@sebra1818 I've seen a few cardboard costumes before, but they were mostly Transformers and generic robots, and I was convinced a person could fit into the shape of my own favorite bipedal bot. Also, I had made the papercraft one and wanted to see if I could go big.

I have a feeling this Metal Gear Rex needs a chiropractor.

Snake just trashed his old cardboard box and just went hardcore with a Metal Gear one.

Kinda reminds me of the Tank Box in Peace Walker.

Awesome job with the costume.
