It’s every boys dream to become a superhero, or mine at least. And it came to life at this years Toys, Games and Comic Convention which took place at Suntec City’s hall 401 and 402 over the weekend.
Loads of toys on display and like all Comic conventions there were people cosplaying, some for fun while others for competion.
A major feature were some of the western cosplayers from the likes of Bubblebee, V for Vendeta and the Master Chief from Halo. Some of these ultra cool suits were from Moviemania. Think of them as a movie talent and fan club with kick ass replicas.
And thanks to Reno and Conrad from Moviemania, I was allowed to put on the Ironman Mark 3 replica that Reno made. It took about a month to construct and involved quite a few people to help with the molding and cutting up process.
You can’t dress up into it yourself obviously so each part has to be fitted on one at a time. It takes about 15 to 20mins to put on the full suit and as you can see from the picture below, 2 people should do the trick.
I remember Conrad saying that if only we had the machine that Tony Stark uses to put on the suit, wouldn’t that be cool!
It’s padded on the inside for some comfort but after a while it does get hot. Hey…..who said being a superhero was easy.
I decided to go without the helmet for the full Tony Stark look. I gotta thank Edwin for the pictures and for helping to make this happen.
And of course Kenneth for helping to document all this in pictures and these movie poster moments.
With the crowd walking around I just had to say it……..”I am Ironman, the suit and I are one” Hahahaha!
Thanks again to the folks at Movie Mania. Can’t wait to see what Reno does with the new War Machine suit, very exciting. Check out their website at www.moviemania.com.sg to see some of their costumes and short movies.
Danker out!
