Well done mate

Congrats again man! The best man--pumpkin---thing won!

Aw shucks, the angriest pumpkin always wins...

Congrats to ya!

congrats!!!! glad your costume won gareee, score one for the carolinas!

I'd like to congratulate Garee, but he already has like nineteen ghost traps, and his costume didn't involve any children, so... not cool, man.

Fine job congrats.

Actually, I had small children under the outfit, one each strapped to each leg. But if memory serves, I think i needed to also include all races and religions, but I figured I could get away with just the two under there.

We are actually building an entire wall of matty traps, so all in all its just a

nother... brick in the wall.

Congrats to the winners!

awww man i missed out on a membership...now i am sad.

Congrats to the top three. You guys were great.....most people were great.

Congratulations Garee, Elias and Amaya, well done with your contest submissions.

Are they named Ignorance and Want?

Congrats on the epic Samhain, I'm one of the few nerds who are following him on fb. If that's what it takes to win, then I'll leave the kids to the side next year and start working on the Boogyman costume tomorrow.

Boogeyman is already on my potential to do list. Only thing is this time of year the weather is iffy.. some days the high is only 40 degrees, adn mornings are already down to 27, far too cold to work outdoors on anything in.

Congrats to the winners, pat on the back for the rest of the contestants, you put up a good fight.

I may have a fighting chance, it was 77 here today.... I do have 2 kids, but I'll make do.. Worst case scenario, I can always be the Sandman.

I think I want to actually do another version of Samhain's head, with more sculpted in detail. I rush the sculpt early on because we needed it for an event, and once I sealed it with the hard coat, going back to resculpt the foam became problematic.

I could add easily, but not carve back into the sculpt. I'm always very critical of my work, and when I;m done with something, all I usually see are the flaws and improvements I could have made.

I also know more now how to work the insulation foam better as well.

Gratz! The Samhain costume is sick.

Congrats to everyone. You all rock
and Gareee, build your wall of matty traps with nothing more then the tears of haters!
For haters gota hate

And trappers are gonna trap!

Hey Steve, If you have two kids then you can have the cool costume and kids in the pic. Put them in PJ's just like the pic and have them looked scared and it should seal you a win! Cute kids and cool costume!
Overall though I do want to congratulate the all the winners and thank all of the contestants who entered. There were a few amazing costumes out there and a ton of support for the franchise. You see things like this and you know that Ghostbusters is definitely still alive and kicking it!

Didn't think of that.... They wouldn't have to look scared though it would be sincere. I showed my 7yr old the cartoon episode and she had to sleep with the lights on for a night or two.
