We Didn't Know Zoltar Drove a Segway!
We've used enough questionable substances to make the specific timeline of the last 20 years is a bit sketchy. But we're pretty sure Big came out before the Segway. More » -

This is Either a Terrible Jabba the Hutt Costume or a Great Angry Turd Costume

Cardboard Cosplay Nintendo Game Boy is Actually Playable
Well, you can use the directional pad anyway. Kudos for the working screen and Tetris music, but the A and B buttons on this cardboard Game Boy costume don't appear to do anything at all. More » -

What are You Dressing Up as for Halloween?
So tonight's the night, my friends: Halloween. You've been planning for weeks or you're going to toss some half-assed costume together from stuff in the back of your closet, but either way, you're dressing up as something. What is it? And is it… sexy? Me, I'm going as Zombie Jimmy Stewart. Not gadgety, I know, but I'm hoping it'll go over well. So, what about you? Are you doing something really ambitious? Let's hear about it! Pictures and video are greatly encouraged! And if you need ideas, hit the jump for the classic web video Girl's Costume Warehouse. More » -

Halloween Costume Competition: Robots Turn on Humans
From our last post on the matter: With Halloween around the corner, there's one thought that scares us more than any other. It's not Dracula or reanimated corpses. It's not TP'd houses or razor blade candy. It's the day when robots turn on humans in the battle for Earth. And to prep for the event, we're throwing a contest. Dress up like a robot that's turned on the human race, maybe win a pizza. More » -

Kevin is an awesome dad. Because only a truly awesome dad would make a completely amazing Mega Man costume for his son, complete with light-up mega blaster.

Robovie-X 'Bot Fires Missiles at Moving Targets, Plays Dress-Up
Robovie-X is a new robot kit from Japanese DIY maker ATR. Not only can it use its fully-programmable 17 degrees of freedom and optical distance sensors to follow moving targets and fire at them with a surprisingly powerful plastic missile launcher, it can also, apparently, shed its armor and dress up as a jazz-hands-waving Foghorn Leghorn or a white-gloved Michael Jackson archer. You know, if you're into that kind of thing. Check out more pics and a video of the missiles in action after the jump. More »
