Disguise DISK103509L Converting Transformers Bumblebee Costume, Child, Yellow, Small 4-6 years

Product Information

First thing’s first, let’s take a look at my completed DIY Converting Transformers Bumblebee Costume. I also decided to add details and add a fender for these wheels. The details for the costume really make it.

The next foamular part is the area below the grille. This area is much easier as you will not need to shape or sand the pieces. All you need to do is simply cut out pieces to cover the area below the grill, keeping a small rectangle at bottom, and glue them on the same way (pic #11 for reference).

I added two triangular pieces to the hood opening so that it would stay open a little even when closed. Draw and Cut Wheels

Also, this costume doesn’t work well at all with stairs. Going up stairs is fine, but going down doesn’t work. Maybe you will be able to overcome this obstacle with your design. I’ll show you what I did right and what I did wrong. Hopefully, I can make this really easy for you. Making a Homemade Transformer Costume SORRY-in the pictures one of my lights fell off…i noticed just now, If you scroll at the bottom… you’ll find links to see my costume in a better way).

By the way, you can get a lot of inspiration from these these cool ready-made transformer costumes!)

Christ if it weren't for the whiny final fantasy/kingdom hearts fans, we would be THE biggest group of whiners as a whole in regards to a fan base. We added squares to each side for shoulders. they do not have a top at this point in time. we added 2 styrofoam squares to have the shoulder lid rest there. (pic 1)

add an additional strip around the bottom of the thigh so that the calf piece and be attached to it. (pic 2,A) Learn from my mistakes* I initially made the length of the hood way too long and the costume flopped all around my son’s shoulders. I later cut off the front of the hood to fix my mistake. To avoid this, for the length of the hood, you want to make it maybe 2.5 or 3 times the depth of the child’s body so that there’s room, but not too much room. Remember that you don't have to get it right on the first time; if you are using pencil you can sketch over it and erase if it looks bad. The hood is pretty straight forward. I matched the length of the hood to the length of the hood that I had already made on my front side panel. As far as the width, I just put the board up against my son and made sure it was wider than him and he had a little space on either side. The front part of the hood comes to a point (although if it were straight across, it wouldn’t be a big deal).
