Timmy's taking a handful of lucky ThinkGeek monkeys to San Diego Comic-Con at the end of July.
As you may know, Timmy has a few ensembles--a Jayne hat knitted by @Rumielf, a NASA flight suit donated by @NASAblueshift, his black t-shirt--but he's not ready for the extravaganza of costumery they call Comic Con.
He needs more kick-ass outfits to wear, and we're kinda hoping you'd like to pitch in to his con trousseau. We're specifically looking for costumes like:
Jedi (robe and saber), Stormtrooper, or Vader
Star trek red shirt, Tribble
Arthur Dent in his pajamas (or Zaphod?)
Zombie, Pirate, or Ninja
Killer rabbit
Beholder, Megaman, Mario, Link, Sonic, Donkey kong (including barrel), Katamari
Naruto, Domo, TRON suit, Cloud (FF7), Kratos
Portal jumpsuit (with companion cube)
Facehugger (suit, or mini one for Timmy)
Vork, Sheldon, Hurley, or Smokemonster
Here are his measurements so you can see what we're talking about, scale-wise:
Height: 8"; Chest (all the way around): 9.5"; Neck (all the way around): 8"; Arm (shoulder to end of hand): 3.5"; Inseam: 2"; Head (where a hat would fit): 8"
So if you've got mad sewing/knitting/crocheting/modding/replicator skills, and you'd like your costume to be worn by Timmy at SDCC, with credit given in our Flickr photosets, we'd like to hear from you.
UPDATE: We've gotten a slew (like, eighty) of awesome costume ideas and we've contacted or will contact all those crafty geeks very soon. So for now we're removing the submission form, but if you have a stroke of artistic evil genius, feel free to send your Timmy costumes here by July 15:

Meantime, we'll keep our eyes on the mailbox. We'll post Flickr pics as soon as they start coming in!
