So I just recently got back from Otakon. Saw something interesting...

Image

DANANANANA! DANANANANA! DANANANANANANANANANA! TROGDOOOOOOR!!!

Okay, to be honest, it was a pretty shoddy costume. But hey, I thought it was cool. I ran up to the person in th costume and said "Excuse me, Mr. The Burninator, sir? May I have a picture?"

Oh, and the person in the costume was female, so I felt bad for saying "Mr" and "Sir" :blush:

That, is sweet. But I think I see a hand in Trodgor's mouth. Was this picture recently after lunch?

Whoa, dang. That is the coolest Trogdor costume I have ever seen. And it's the only one I've seen. So, um, good prize?

That's pretty awesome. I wonder how long it took to make that thing, and how they made it.

Nice find.

That's awesome. I'd probably hyperventilate and pass out and not know what to do.

Shishu went too. So you were actually IN THE SAME PLACE as another Forumer. If that happened, I'd hyperventilate and pass out and not know what to do twice as much.

Yup :eek: I was in the same place as the forumgoers of another forum I go to, but I didn't see them. Ho-hum...


I actually saw that Trogdor guy too, while in the video game hall! My cousin has the picture though....


Random guy: ...there's a Strong Bad?
Presumably his friend: No, it's Trogdor
Me: I'm Stinkoman! *poses with knife*
Random guy: *looks at me* *laughs and shakes head*

I am speechless at this awesome costume, probably the best out the ones I've seen so far. The only other time I've seen Trogdor at the Otakon was in this flash about cosplaying by a guy named Gerkinman. Other than that, looks pretty neat.

Now for another question: Do you think Homestar will be cosplayed in the next convention?

Well, I went as Homestar one year for Halloween, and unless you don't want to be recognized by almost everybody, go for it :P

TBC should sell Homestar Runner costumes for Halloween, now that would be awesome.

Oh yeah, that Trogdor costume rocks because I haven't seen any other Trogdor costumes. It doesn't look like it has any feet, though.

Or at least sell Homestar's propellor cap, so you could be him for Halloween.

Whoa! That's awesome!^o^

You met Trogdor and lived to tell about it, eh? You deserve a prize. How about the "Not-Burninated" Badge?

They didn't do a half-bad job on that, if I do say. Heh, you can tell that the guys behind her are as amused as we are. I'd certainly have been impressed. Well, rather, I am impressed. Err.

Heh. I was there, and I saw that costume as they went up the escalator. I recognized it immediately. It was pretty awesome.

Though, given that it was an anime convention, perhaps Trogador would've been more appropriate? Ah well, this is awesome anyway. :D

Pretty awexome, yeah. I tried to dress up as ol' Burny for Halloween and couldn't figure out a decent design for a costume, but this tops any ideas that even STRAYED my mind. It looks like a two-man costume though. Like the donkey in Christmas pageants.

"Have you had any acting experience?"
"I played the bottom half of the donkey in the Christmas Pageant..."

Can't there just be ONE donkey? I have never gotten this supposed tradition.

Oh, and I ended up masquerading as Jack Sparrow, by the way.

I wish I could be Trogdor at Otakon. The best I can do is wear my Troggie shirt at CNAnime on Saturday.
