Hey guys. Just want to introduce myself.
My Name is Mike. I'm part of a local Cosplay group in AZ (not sure where everyone is from)
I'm working on Kup right now and will be cosplaying together with a number of friends all G1. Actually a friend got me started on this since I do so many other Cosplay thing and I'm a Huge TF fan and TF Toy collector.
I look forward to meeting you guys and getting any advice I can for building this costume.
I'm making the whole thing from Craft Foam and covering in Vinyl I use in my Business for die cut stickers and vehicle graphics.
So far I have finished the head. working on the chest next.

Anyway, welcome to TCos. :D

Really? Who is building the other one? Not that it matters. I'm doing Kup because he is my favorite.
Thanks Jason for inviting me over here :/ are we going to have another build day or what?!!
BTW if any of you need high grade Craft foam for your costumes I have about 3 sheets of TB 20 left.

There's a transforming G1 Kup in the Wrok in Progress section of the forums. Looks pretty neat so far. :)
Craft foam is always needed here! Care to supply pictures? We have a section for selling/trading spare materials.

That's good to know. az long as it is local to AZ I'm happy to supply. Just done want to ship the stuff. these are 1/4" thick 4 foot x 8 foot sheets.
It's what Jayson has used for all his stuff.
