This is just plain great.
I’ve enjoyed poking fun at some of the best/worst costumes Ben Cooper produced over the decades during 13 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN, but this one is just plain awesome.
(By the way, did you catch the news? Ben Cooper is back in business — for real! Click here for the details!)
Now, I’ve saved the best Ben Cooper costume ever for Halloween itself, so you’ll just have to wait in suspense for that.
But today, I’m showing off this beauty from the Chris Ecker Collection— the (Metaluna) Mutant from the sci-fi cheezefest This Island Earth.
This one is actually by Ben Cooper’s chief rip-off competitor, Collegeville but whatever.
That mask is brilliant. And I don’t even care that the body suit goes full-on Ben Cooper with a picture of the Mutant — and its name — right on the front.
The pink! The aqua! The magnificence!
A toast of stale Bit-o-Honeys to you!
