Think it'll suck?

SyFy already did a full 'reality TV' series on cosplay before:

.... which wasn't great. Their movie costume special effects show Face Off is much more successful and it looks like Cosplay Melee is based pretty closely on that format so hopefully it'll work better.

Are the costumes in Cosplay Melee actually based on anything or are they new creations? I didn't recognise anything in the trailer.

Probably. These shows have a history of trying to drive the cast to conflict just for ratings, which the cast aren't gonna do because they're emotionally-stable individuals. Nevermind being professional about their work ethic.

SYFy's Face Off show really avoids cast conflict and goes the opposite way instead where they're always keen to jump in to help each other and offer advice or a shoulder to cry on so hopefully this show will follow suit.

I just watched the first episode and really enjoyed it. The costumes are 'inspired by' franchises (the theme for the first episode is 'space operas' like Star Wars, Star Trek and Guardians Of The Galaxy) and even though they've only got two days to complete their costumes the quality was pretty darned good. The contestants were all supportive of each other so there wasn't any lovely :siren:DRAMA:siren:, the 'industry' judges gave pretty good feedback. I'll be on board for the rest of the episodes.

How the gently caress. Is this just some incredibly good makeup and prosthetics that only works for this picture?

She pretty much drew a larger mouth outside her lips, coloured it black and glued on fake teeth that overlapped her mouth.

It's good but if they'd dirtied up their clothes it would've been great. But I'm sure dozens of people already pointed that out to them at whatever con they were at so they'll nail it next time. ;)

If you're going to attend a con dressed as a Fallout character all kitted out to battle post-apocalyptic mutants then maybe catch a cab or something instead of walking through town wearing a gas mask and combat gear

A dude in Australia made a full Iron Man costume so he could visit kids in hospital and cheer them up. It's got all the lights, a mouth control in the helmet that lifts the visor, a voice changer that automatically starts when the visor closes and a few more tricks. Here he is at a Starlight foundation charity fundraiser where he walked around in the suit for 3 hours:


http://imgur.com/gallery/vJybi


Oh and he made the suit out of steel, it weighs 37kg (81.5 lbs)


It took him 3 years to finish the project, he had to go on a crazy crash diet earlier this year because he'd put on some weight and he didn't fit in the suit any more. :v:

Not a lot yet

Edit: loving hell, he can't actually see out of the eye holes in the costume because they're full of lights. He's got a tiny little video camera set between the eyes and he has video camera glasses in the visor
