Perhaps owing to the upcoming release of Suicide Squad, RICC was awash in Harley Quinns – both the classic animated series costume and Margot Robbie’s getup from the film.

You know what as also popular? These Deadmau5 heads. Neither of us could figure out why. We asked this guy if this was in reference to anything to particular with the EDM star, and he told us he was surprised as we were, and assumed he’d be the only one wearing the mau5 head. His was the most unique and elaborate though. Heath Ledger Joker has become such a popular costume that it’s always interesting when someone has a unique approach to it.

This guy told us that it took months to put together his elaborate, detailed Iron Man costume. I can’t imagine how hot it is in there.

One moment I was talking to Megan only to find out that she was nowhere near me. I turned around and she was already in the middle of taking photos of this guy, who was putting together his elaborate costume right on the floor . It was so elaborate, that the dude is wearing stilts and cannot move from this spot with the whole get-up on. This was one of the con’s best costumes and a great committal to the craft.
