Ebay Auction: Be a Big Daddy this Halloween (Little Sister Sold Separately)

by Wade Larson on September 30, 2008 at 11:06 am

Can’t decide on what video game character to dress up as this Halloween? Sick of wearing the same blue suspenders and red hat every year? Have you ever wanted to have a large, Styrofoam drill for an arm? Do you live in the New Jersey area?

If you answered yes to these questions, this man has a suit to sell you. This fancy, homemade Big Daddy costume can be yours for only $250. The drill arm does work, provided you stick a power drill in there, and you can string some Christmas lights up in the face mask for that extra “friendly” or “your death is imminent” effect. Make it a family affair and bring your little sister along for an added bonus. Just hand her a giant syringe and a dirty, 50s throw-back dress and you finally found a good use for the little brat!

While it is a refuge from last year’s festivities, don’t worry about appearing out-of-date. Just tell people you’re the PS3 version of the Big Daddy, and this costume’s relevancy gets an extra year, and you don’t have to worry about gluing on that fake, Italian mustache ever again.

Until 2009. Video of the suit in action after the jump.

    You have to love the inclusion of every day items like trash cans and white plastic lawn chairs. It completely adds to the “Bioshock” feel of it all.

    I have a feeling this suit is a hot, as in stolen. Who would put that much time in to make something like that and then only sell it for 250 bucks? Oh wait, nevermind. It’s probably someone who is living with their mom.
