Welcome to TCos, the internet's most comprehensive resource for everything about robot cosplay. We are a dedicated community focused on building the best costumes ever to grace the fandom. We dig helping, we dig learning, but most of all, we dig giant robots!

(But mostly, it's a party in here.)

TCos Wants to Move!

Want to help TCos get its own forum, complete with image galleries, wiki, articles, info databases, and more? Then we need your help!

So the $100 goal has so far been met-- but I'll be leaving the donation link up until the move because as far as hosting goes, you really can't have enough funds saved up for that sort of thing. Thanks to everyone who contributes!

For information about progress, check out this thread.

I know. Naughty kittehs.

I was more upset initially about it, but I have been moody lately. It was a fairly easy fix. The thing that is still giving me some problems is that upper arm thing, but I have a solution. I just need to get at it.

Since my shoulder sits inside of the torso, there is nothing for the upper arms to rest on. I have to extend my shoulder out past the torso, so I bought a couple of pairs of knee pads, one is just foam the other has a hard plastic cover on it, so it would be like football padding. I need to fine tune this but this is the basic idea.

The final version. This gives me an extra 3in to my shoulder for the upper arm to sit upon. It will be worn under my shirt.
