Nev Mech halloween costume

This is Neville wearing his requested "Thanatos" mech costume made of cardboard and toilet paper rolls and spray paint. That's several evenings of cutting, gluing and spray painting (*cough cough*) in the basement. He's practicing walking before we head out to score candy. They were a huge hit and reasonably robust costumes, except Nev had a knee blow out requiring a repair crew with white glue and duct tape.

Do any of you critics realize that the kid WANTED this costume? His dad could have made something cheap looking and easy to move in, but I don't think that's what the boy wanted. When I was younger, I ALWAYS sacrificed comfort for awesomeness. He was probably so ecstatic just to HAVE this, that the rest didn't even matter. Suffice to say, this is anything but cruel.

I also think we forget how much more stamina and pain tolerance kids have. I could do so much as a kid I wouldn't even risk now!

Hate to see him try and walk up some steps. Hope his dad added the jetpacks
