Re: Lego Movie costume
Houston, we have arm! (oh, and hair. and a face.)
The arm's a little gimpy, but considering the time constraints, it will do. (I intended it to be double-layered and stuffed, to have a more lego-arm effect. Alas, single layer and floppy.) I have duct taped it to the inside of suit, so it is attached. This suit was lacking in duct tape.

Re: Lego Movie costume
Well, the dang thing is done!
There are parts I'm not entirely happy with, and other details I would have liked to get on there, but hey. For a rush job that I had a cold for a week, I'd say it isn't too bad. (oh and I work at GM, that's why I put it on the name tag)
Anyway, hope you like it! I'll get a video up tomorrow of my attempted "dance". Hopefully it doesn't end with me in a heap on the floor. The dangerous thing about this costume is if I lift a leg too high, the rounded part bumps up into the torso, which tilts it back, throwing my shoulders back. If I'm not expecting this, it could end in disaster haha.

It looks great! I can only imagine what you would have been able to accomplish with more time.

Re: Lego Movie costume
Fantastic job!
Now how loud is the costume? Does it make cardboard bonky noises?

Re: Lego Movie costume
Surprisingly, not really. There's a bit of leg "chafing" noise where they rub past each other, but the parts don't really collide so it's not bad.
