Craftster user melyssa_marie made this super costume for her boyfriend of a Headcrab Zombie from Valve’s Half-Life. The crab itself is made from vinyl and paint. She was so clever with the guts on the shirt…a fake apple split in half and a fake loaf of bread!

P.S. She made her present costume too, which cracks me up because my parents did that to me when I was five. It was horrible because in kindergarten that day we were cutting out shapes to make Halloween mobiles and I couldn’t cut because I could barely move my arms. Childhood tragedies.

Mr. T is awesome. WrestleMania, Rocky III, The A-Team…did you know Mr. T has three kids? How cool must that be to have Mr. T as your dad! I pity the fools who don’t think these Mr. T crafts are totally rad.

Little Mr. T

Etsy seller Kezzaroo sells these super cute Little Mr. T dolls made of felt at three inches tall. Kezzaroo also offers this Mr. T trivia tidbit:

“Mr.T once punched Chuck Norris at the exact moment he roundhouse kicked Mr.T in the chest.”

The Contaminated posted this incredible R2-D2 case modification. Unfortunately, there’s no instructions or further information. Not that any of us mere mortals could duplicate this amazing feat of engineering anyway.

Geoff Fourtytwo won his company costume contest a few years back with these Pac-Man and Ghost Halloween costumes. He used PVC, fabric and a couple of belts to make it. he even gives us step-by-step instructions!
