Tetris Halloween Costume (Couples Costume)

Tetris Halloween Costumes, originally uploaded by Glen Murphy.

Are you a gamer? Do you need a couple's costume? Is your girl/boy friend a gamer?

Here's your costume-- Tetris blocks. While kind of a pain to wear (you're a weird size) would be a good winner for a gaming convention or some other geeky event.

These took about five hours to make, and used about $57 worth of stuff from an office supply store, including the scissors. The best part was having to try on boxes in the store, to the bemusement of those around us.

They were a bit hot and bulky in use, and it was super hard to hear anyone. If it was to be done again, I'd recommend cutting ear-holes in them, or at least making the face areas more open.

We also didn't count on how much Tetris we'd have to play to get these to fit in the car.
