I've just finished my son's costume for this year's Thought Bubble.



It's been created using a prototype of the Planet Replicas helmet (small size). And a Planet Replicas buckle, pouch emblems and an early prototype badge.

Everything else is either a modified 'found item' or scratch built.

I've tried to stick as close to the Planet Replicas official design as possible.

He is The Law!

Absolutely awesome, Minty!  But are you sure he's entitled to a full eagle at that age?

And how is visibility for him?  I hope he's not in danger of any mishaps.

Look forward to seeing some more pictures of your son in action.

[Thought - you could do some great comedy pictures with this - e.g. big Dredd and little Dredd, or have two big hefty guys handcuffed and on their knees and elbows with a 'dwarf' Dredd pointing his daystick at them as if sentencing them after taking them down.]

Cheers!

Yes, I'm sure we'll take some fun photos at conventions.

The visibility in the helmet is very good, though I do need to change the tint material for something better.

Yes King Tout, I was inspired at Hi-Ex! and the idea has been growing and growing, until I noticed he fit the smaller helmet, then it was all systems go!

 :) He'll get tons of attention, if the reaction to Rose is anything to go by.

She's nearly six now. I seriously doubt she would co-operate with any such shenanigans now. She's only interested in comics about princesses.

I was toying with the idea of a pinstripe suit for my son Max, though...

Good to see the finished product.

Look forward to seeing him wandering around shouting I AM THE LAW! etc, etc.
