good old-fashioned plastic

I'll admit it. As a child, my Halloween costumes of choice were the ones with the cheap plastic masks and flimsy suits. After all, why put thought and effort into creating a unique costume when one could be purchased that looked exactly like the character you were attempting to become. Exactly. Why you could even assume the identity of your favourite television character.


Like Steve Austin. Or perhaps his evil overweight twin brother.




You could become Morticia Addams. After an especially hard day.

Or maybe one of the Brady Bunch. It doesn't matter which one. Your choice.

Why not go a step further and disguise yourself as a real celebrity. Like Ali the Vulcan.

Or amaze your friends and neighbours with an uncanny likeness to a teen singing sensation.

I used to wonder why the those outfits always displayed the picture and the name of the costume's identity. Now I think I understand.
