Amazing Spider-Man Costume: Does Whatever a Spider-Man Costume Does

We’ve seen a lot of cool costumes over the years and many look amazing, but this Spider-Man costume may be the most movie accurate costume we’ve ever seen. It isn’t just the details, but the quality is simply amazing too.

In fact, his costumes were so amazing that he claims Marvel sent him a cease and desist letter since he used to make them for other people too. Really, instead of being so heavy-handed, they need to just hire this guy. It is some truly awesome work. If I had a costume this good, I would move to New York and fight crime and put it all on my Youtube channel.

But, with a great costume comes great responsibility. I don’t know if I’m ready for that. Maybe I would just admire myself in the mirror.

R2-D2 Ballerina Costume: Artoo Tutu

I have to say that this little R2-D2 ballerina outfit looks pretty cute, and it’s easy to recognize the original droid. It was designed by Leeloo who works as a designer for J!NX. It looks like an awesome Halloween costume or something you could wear to cosplay adventures. She calls it the Artoo Tutu.

The Artoo Tutu is definitely distinctive. The costume was handmade last year and she’s been prancing around in it ever since. I have to say that I quite like it – though I’d never be caught dead wearing it.

Anyway, if you managed to get the R2-D2 swimsuit, then you’ll probably go bonkers for the Artoo Tutu.

Clothing for Gadgets: Play Dress-Up with Your iPad

When I’m done using my laptop, I stow it away in a sleeve printed with zebra stripes all over. The sleeve looks pretty beat up from months and months of use, but I just haven’t found the time to look for another one that would appeal to my taste. But I don’t think I can say no to these handsome outfits, cut and re-sewn especially and specifically for laptops and iPads.

Laptop OutfitThese are the brainchild of Richard, who owns Finders and Keeper’s. He basically puts together an outfit (presumably from his old clothes), custom tailors them to fit your notebook or iPad, then lines it with soft organic cotton to make sure your gadget stays safe and snug inside.

Pretty fun, right? I never thought I’d see the day when we’d actually get to dress up iPads and laptops as we would dress up our nephews or sons. (Not that I have any children yet.)

This line of computerwear (as Richard calls them) is available from his Etsy shop, where they range in price from $55 to $75(USD).
