I agree, Erin. Daniel is hilarious. +1 for Leslie Chow!
2:51 pm
They are all great! But I have to go for Mario!
2:51 pm
Civilian getting eaten by a shark is bar far the funniest, but my vote is going to have to go to Mario!
2:51 pm
Mario! Creative and I can copy it for tomorrow.
2:52 pm
Unbelievable! I just put in the wrong company website address. *sigh*
2:52 pm
Lee! What is wrong with you?! You just totally screwed me out of a vote! Haha.
2:53 pm
+2 for Leslie Chow followed by Zombie Cowboy and Mario
2:54 pm
My vote goes out to Paul Stanley from KISS. Great face paint!
2:54 pm
I’m torn between Mario and Civilian eaten by a shark. Can I have two votes Rayanne? If not then you don’t get one.
2:55 pm
So hard to chose, Mario was well done though Leslie was so freakin’ funny. +1 for Leslie Chow
2:55 pm
Kelly : (
2:57 pm
I’m not wearing a costume at all! I was borrowing Sunir’s props!
Anyway, my vote is for Daniel (Leslie Chow) though Mario, what with the action shot, coes in a close second.

All awesome, but have to give it to Da….I mean…Leslie Chow (!)
Bonus points to the “Civilian” for her facial expression and Mario for ‘his’ vertical
3:48 pm
Even though we want to vote for the zombie cowboy, we think that the best one is Paul Stanely from KISS and no doubt the best image is Mario captured in mid-air
3:52 pm
Mario ROCKS! Man, that guy’s got great calves! Perpetually airborne? Puffy hat beats all.
3:53 pm
While I love Harry Potter and wish I could go to Hogwarts, my vote has to go to Mario and her puffy read hat.
3:54 pm
Mario is super cute!

8:28 pm
Civilian getting eaten by a shark!
9:10 pm
Mario wins it for me – good costumer but the pose and smile just takes it to the next league.
The shark is dead by the way – you’ve put your right arm through it’s head – you can escape if you really want to – great effort though – that must have taken a while to make so that comes a close second for me.
9:38 pm
Aw crap. Corey wins for minimalism. Mario’s a classic. But I couldn’t recognise Leslie Chow! Yikes. Sorry I missed the fun.
