Cool!
Thanks so much for the comments, guys! Glad your eyeballs haven’t been seared into oblivion.
So funny story (or semi-funny) (or NEGAfunny): I actually planned on painting my hair white for the con while wearing this, and bought some white hair spray for the occasion. We also did a Fright Features group at DC (I’ll do a thread for that stuff too soon), and I was Ray, so I bought some orange hair spray for that one. We wore those first, so the orange went on first, and it was a massive disaster - it got EVERYWHERE and turned me into a bleeding Oompa Loompa. Since the white spray was the same company, I decided to skip it entirely, but I would really like to find a decent white wig and maybe even one day do a photo shoot with that weird blue/green/gray skin color, at least for my face (I can wear the gloves).
The most common question I’ve had from people who heard about it has been whether I am going to do blackface with this costume. So yeah.
Very original, and so perfectly executed in the details. I have to say, that blue Lifegard cracks me up for some reason.
So, thinking back to some of my high school classes, can I be the first one to dub this the “electron pack”?

It’s always fun to see the creative process behind these Packs, and nice work on doing something that adds another unique design to the collective, but also hadn’t been done before. 
If you were to even refine the lights, I’d suggest the following for the Cyclotron: Having three lights lit and one light dark.
I was thinking about the 3 lit and one dark too but when you look at the videos and pics you can see that it works as is.

what an awesome idea
You sir are a dork, and I love it.
Thanks, Ben - that’s an interesting idea, but if you took a picture of the pack, it wouldn’t reverse to what a normal pack looks like, which was my main idea. The cyclo and power cell lights go in reverse order, however!
Alex - I forgot to highlight that reverse Lifegard. That’s actually one of my favorite parts, too - it looks really cool with the blue and white. I’ll find some pictures of it close up soon to show off.
Does it work or is it resin?
If it does work does the audio change when played in reverse, I would imagine it to be the same as it’s just 2 tones alternating back and forth.
Totally works. It’s a II, the kind that has the alternating tones. I would have no idea how to make it “reverse”, and there wouldn’t really be a reason to, as it would sound the same if I did.
At a couple of recent events, we were using the LifeGard’s alarm as a way of catching each other’s attention to regroup or for photo ops… was quite useful… LOL! Of course, it would just be a quick “tweet”, as to not cause a commotion…
If you’re not using your Lifegard to cause a commotion, you’re doing it wrong.
Oh WOW!!!
This is awesome! It was only a couple of weeks ago I was thinking “I wonder whatever happened to those white fobs/holsters I made…” then I saw your picture on facebook (PKE Surge’s album) and recognised my wares…
it wasn’t until I saw a link to this post on the UKGB FB page that I realised why they were white.
Outstanding work sir, and I’m glad I could help bring your vision to reality!
Awesome!
Thanks so much man - you were a HUGE help early on in getting the suit portion off the ground. Once I saw what you did, I knew it could work.
Just amazing! I’m sorry I missed seeing you at Dragoncon!
You too, Gareeeee. Next time.
The NEGAstuff got to make its New England debut this weekend at the Granite State Comic Con in New Hampshire. Here are a few ridiculous photos of it in action:
Was fun bumping into you at D*C man!
Awesome! Thanks for the pic - I didn’t realize that was you.
