Description As mentioned in the episode 'Numbers'. This is one of two main accessories for my Cecil Palmer costume at Dragon*Con 2014.Β 

Made from one of the small Amazon shipping boxes, carved up, then layered with mesh and wax paper on the inside, and plastered with lights. The weird thing on the side are coffee filters. The circular disc is an old vacuum cleaner fan with a clock bit stiuck on it.

The microphone comes from a weird statuette thing that was on sale at Bed, Bath and Beyond, with clock parts and some cheap doctor headband reflective thingies from a costume store attached to the side. It's glued into a painted PVC pipe, with a purple mesh cord connecting the two. Β There's a leather shoulder strap with a hook on it that the mic can rest in, and it has four aerials poking from the top, which I know are going to skewer me or my shirt at some point over the 'con. Ah well, is worth it ^__^

Awesome, thank you ^__^ I had worried it was a bit too Nightmare Before Christmas at first, and most of their logos and artwork are pretty clean vector-like, but I'm super happy with how it turned out. Needs some repairs after cons, though. It's a little fragile ^_^;

That's the only bad part. I went to a convention as Sally from the nightmare before Christmas.
I was scared the dress was going to rip (I hand sew it when I saw starting to sew, it works) but so many people ran up to hug me I was scared someone would rip it.

Yeah, definitely. When you have something very delicate, or potentially unstable, it's very hard to discourage people who become so passionate about seeing something you create. I got quite a few hugs as Rocket raccoon at Animazement and it's hard to position yourself where you know all of your bits are going to be protected, and there were a lot of times I was really worried about it getting damaged. It managed all right in the end, but it was still scary at the time.

Yes! It was my first year actually, but I'll definitely go again ^___^

Oh, a Chica cosplay with cupcake would be awesome! I've always liked Foxy myself. When I went to DragonCon a lot of people thought my werewolf was Foxy; once I heard everyone ask about it I had to look it up

The only boy of our group is cosplay Freddy.

Oh nice, a Foxy also ^___^ I'd consider trying to do Mangle too, but I have so many other things going on right now it's going to be quite far down the list

Food rings, yay!

One idea I had was for the puppet to have little puppets of the two night guards from the second game. but it's just an idea

Oh nice! I'd love to see that ^__^ I have a tendency to let my imagination run away with me sometimes though when planning

making them going to be fun. Another thing people could add (more for a gore facter) is have the strings that connect to the puppets look blood or just the puppets.Β  Sorry my brain is dead Β

Oh, that would be awesome! You could probably use red tear-drop shaped beads for that ^__^

This would absolutely suit some random, underground advertising for delicious, illegal wheat by-products. Mmm.Β
