Halloween Costume Ideas - Optimus Prime - as part of the expert series by GeoBeats. Hi, I am Robin Charin and I am the owner of R.T. Clown. This is a fabulous costume. This is something you would have to go to a professional for. Although, if you have somebody who is really clever, you can actually buy that head at Target or some of the toy stores but, if we start from the bottom up, the pieces, the boots are similar. They are also water boots but, they are spray painted grey and the piece that goes over the shoe there was something that the designer actually took off of something. I do not know what he took it off of, actually. The side, if you want to turn to the side Christopher, those are wheels. See how simple that is. It is literally wheels covered in tape on the edge. The gloves that he is wearing are ski gloves. It is mountain ski gloves. He happens to be wearing a grey shirt. It looks terrific with a black or a black turtleneck because you want to cover the neck as much as possible so they do not see Optimus Prime being somebody else. Again, the pieces on the chest are also something that were riveted. It looks like they are basic pieces of plastic covered in red tape that were riveted. It is professional quality so, unless you are really talented, I do not think you could make this one at home but, you can put together pieces to a simple costume that would make it look really cool.
