XD You're not the only one who, even in early childhood, realized there was something fundamentally wrong about putting the character on a costume that was suppose to -be- the character. <br /><br />What's really funny is David Carradine was never that buff in Kung Fu. Maybe the artists were inspired by Yukio Mishima, which would be just -wrong- on so many different levels, particularly for a kid's costume.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-51950678843571395812019-10-10T10:09:40.110-04:002019-10-10T10:09:40.110-04:00Also, 2 Matchbox cars for a buck?

Nearl all the othrs commit the cardinal sin of putting a tacky picture of the character on the shirt, thus ruining any hopes of replicating the character's costume. And of looking cool on Halloween.<br /><br />Also, the picture/pose chosen for the Kung Fu costume looks like it was taken from a Chippendale's calendar.YesterdayIsNowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10131731569946142828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-17249815817970780602019-10-09T16:07:46.299-04:002019-10-09T16:07:46.299-04:00I had the Batman one, and some of the Sesame Stree...I had the Batman one, and some of the Sesame Street Finger Puppets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-73137205642799489712019-10-09T10:09:04.796-04:002019-10-09T10:09:04.796-04:00Wow.
