Those light cycles were cool too, incredible instant 90-degree cornering ability, what traction they must have had!5455654557

[Hitcher]

It's way scarier if you've met me...

[Steam]

Because you actually have a Tron suit, don't you Hitcher? Come, you MUST have pictures somewhere.

[jumma]

[Quartermile]

Oneday when I grow up I want to be as cool and mighty as Tron :killingme

[Smorg]

haha look at his nuts! What Im wondering Hitcher is how you found this?

Google = Freaks in Lycra?

[Hitcher]

Google = Doppelganger.

[mstriumph]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

:crybaby:

*exit, stage left, clutching shattered illusions .................*

Mate, that is him! Can't you tell?

[Colapop]

To clarify for those that have not met Mr Hitcher... The gentleman in the photo could very well be his mirror image... minus the suit but that wouldn't be a mental image I would foist upon anyone.

B, you know what has to be done. I expect you to be arrested before you make it to the Wellington KB lunch in your suit. Yes, indecent exposure.

[jrandom]

I genuinely, seriously, quite honestly thought it was you, Hitcher.

... it is, isn't it?

[Hitcher]

*exit, stage left, clutching shattered illusions...*

Go on then. Post a picture of you in a Tron suit. Then we can be even.

[onearmedbandit]

I'm sure it is.

[BuFfY]

Hahaha I am so getting one for pyrocam! Then he can be Pyrotron!! lol

[mstriumph]

Go on then. Post a picture of you in a Tron suit. Then we can be even.

no point
we can NEVER be even :innocent:

[mstriumph]

AND, for wot it's worth, my tender illusions were shattered because - it it WAS you, mr hitcher, you are .........

........................... *gulps* ....... wearing BEIGE!!!!!

:crybaby: :weep: :mellow:

[Colapop]

It's not beige... it's - FLESHTONE *shudder*

[Madness]

When are you putting the rest of the Neons on the FJ Hitch?

Does the suit have Kevlar stitching?

I don't think it looks like you actually, this guy looks pretty average.

[cheese]

ha ha ha hes got a man camel toe.

[imdying]

Wow, that's pretty close to what I'd thought you'd look like Hitcher... well, except for the whole Tron suit thing :lol:

[Waylander]

Anyone have the vid of Hitcher's moment of glory on the news a year or so ago?

He busted some famous actress (can't remember her name at the moment) for having a few bits of fruit in her luggage.


Could use it for comparison.

Lessons learned
Fabric paint is a pain in the ass to deal with, and must be applied with a heavy hand if sharp edges on lines are desired. It would have probably helped if I had not worn and washed the unitard before painting, as that caused the fabric to pill somewhat, making it much harder to get the paint down into the fabric.
If you superglue something to a painted surface, you're not gluing to the item itself, but to the paint. I should have waited the specified 7 days for maximum chip resistance (which means maximum hardness and curing) before trying to glue the el-wire to it.
No matter how hard you try, the colors will never match exactly. Don't obsess about it; do the very best you can and quit worrying.
I got some slack cut because this was my first masquerade. It'll be tougher to win something next year...and it was suggested that, while I could re-enter this costume, doing so very many times would not be wise. Now, all I have to do is come up with another idea...

bahahaha, now if he's got a missus...
i haven't met hitcher.

[McJim]

er....I don't remember Tron being that shape....

[Hitcher]

I haven't met Hitcher.

Now you know what to look out for. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.

[Big Dave]

As they say in the trade - 'A great head for radio'.

[apteryx_haasti]

Two things.

1. Oh my.

2. Aieee! My eyes!

[klingon]

"Wednesday morning, after allowing it to dry overnight, I tried it on to see what problems needed fixing" :rofl:

Hitcher, I don't know where to start.

Except that it's entirely appropriate to call that a 'unitard'
