There are few creatures that are more magical than a mermaid, and this Halloween you can give your child a special treat by buying a childs mermaid costume to make her feel special.

The mermaid has been a puzzle that sailors have always talked about in stories, and have been made into many films.

The latest in this long line of mythical creatures of the sea is Ariel, a mermaid made famous by Disney, who is a free spirit and wants to marry someone who knows that she is not a royal princess.

Your child can be a real princess dressed in a royal mermaid costume, and your party could have a real seafood theme if you were to ask your guests to bring along their favorite dish of the sea so that all your guests can have a royal sea food evening.

Ariel has many adventures both in the sea and on land and is a true Disney princess, but she has a rebellious streak that lets her enjoy human company as well as her sea creature friends. Your child can have fun for the day being dressed in the childs mermaid costume and captivating your guests.

Fall Fairy Child Costume

Fairy Falls is a 20-foot waterfall on the Oregon side of the Columbia River Gorge in the United States; however a Fall Fairy is a magical resident of the fairy realm who only appears in the mortal realm in the fall, and is the character upon which this magical Fall Fairy child costume is themed. The Fall Fairy child costume includes a green tank top dress with a layered skirt of fall colors with red and orange leafy accents around the waist and is perfectly suited for a Halloween trick or treat adventure.

A Fall Fairy child costume much like any other fairy costume is themed on the magical winged sprites and imps which are abundant in European folklore, especially the folklore and tales of Ireland, England and Scotland although in lesser numbers they also appear in the tales which emanate for the old European cultures of the middle ages and up to the present day. There are as many different types and classes of fairy as there are folk tales; also there are many incarnations of fairies associated with different seasons and festivals throughout the year.

The fall fairy upon which the Fall Fairy child costume is themed only comes out in the fall; if she wasn’t to appear it is rumored that the leaves wouldn’t fall from the trees and that winter wouldn’t follow, Jack Frost wouldn’t be able to make an appearance and paint the world white. Perhaps that would be a good thing if it meant the ravages of winter were held at bay; however if the natural cycle of the seasons is lost or stopped, summer would never come round again.

Mom, you seriously need to consider buying your little girl a Fall Fairy child costume just to be sure that the leaves fall from the trees and winter follows on so we can see the land renew next spring ready for the crops to start growing, the flowers blooming and the whole cycle of nature reborn. Every season has a fairy and all fairies live in the other realm at what is known to fairies as Fairy HQ, although there isn’t any reason to attempt to get to fairy HQ in order to get a superb fairy costume.

Famous fairies over the years have included the three fairies in the sleeping beauty tale, fairy godmother in Cinderella, Tinkerbell who was Peter Pan’s friend and of course recently Abby Cadabby, the little fairy in training who recently started visiting Sesame Street. There are many other examples of fairies in popular culture and fiction, although most fairies tend to get on with their jobs without any publicity, although chances are most of the fairies we all fondly recognize would prefer to shun the limelight.

Your little girl will probably hog the limelight wearing a Fall Fairy child costume for her trick or treat adventure; just make sure she doesn’t make all the candy disappear in one wave of her magic wand.

Alice and the child Queen of Hearts costume has been around for nearly 150 years! This is a long time for the child Queen of Hearts costume running around trying to cut off Alice’s head. The two have a long history together and over a billion dollars later they are still arch enemies.

Alice and the child Queen of Hearts costume were first introduced in the book titled Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Carroll in 1865. Carroll wrote a sequel to the story in 1871 titled Through the Looking-Glass. Originally, the sequel became much more popular than the original story of Alice. However, the public soon enough catches on to the original and takes on a life of its own. Nearly 150 years later the books are still being published and currently have been translated into 125 languages.

The books have been turned into movies and television shows. Most of the productions combine the two books together. This is where the lines have been crossed with the child Queen of Hearts costume and the Red Queen. The Queen of Hearts is clearly from a deck of cards and the Red Queen is clearly from a chess game. However, their characters are similar enough that they can be used as one or the other without changing the storyline.

There has been a total of 39 movies/television shows that present Alice and the child Queen of Hearts costume. The first three films were silent movies released in 1903, 1910 and 1915. The first film where the characters could speak was released in 1933. Walt Disney attempted to produce Alice in Wonderland several times until he was finally successful in 1951. He created the first animated version of the film. He also created the Disney television series, Adventures in Wonderland from 1991 to 1995. The latest film of Alice in Wonderland was in 2010. This film was again released by Walt Disney Pictures and created with the latest technology of 3D. The film was both animated and live-action. It features famous actors and actresses such as Johnny Depp, Mia Wasikowska and Anne Hathaway.

Alice and the child Queen of Hearts costume even made their way into comic book series and video games. The first comic book was released in 1951 by Dell Comics. In 1965, Gold Key Comics released their version; followed by Whitman in 1984. The final comic book series was in 2009 by CreateSpace.

The original story of Alice and her wonderland was on a boat trip that Lewis Carroll was on with some friends. He told the story to three young girls and keeping his promise to one of the girls he wrote the story down for one of the girls. As he began writing the story continued to take a life of its own and came to be story he could share with children all around the world for centuries to come. Alice and the child Queen of Hearts costume has filled the imagination of many children.

Boys Optimus Prime Costume

Mom, your little boy is probably no different from hundreds of thousands of kids who would love to wear a boys Optimus Prime costume on his Halloween trick or treat adventure. In his imagination, he would be patrolling the local neighborhood on Halloween in a boys Optimus Prime costume, leading his imaginary (maybe) company of Transformers on a quest to destroy the evil Decepticons and at the same time save the human population from a fate worse than death.

Transformers, the shape shifting robots all of whom originate from the planet Cybertron have come to earth in search of new sources of Energon, earth being one of the few planets in the galaxy where it is found occurring naturally and in abundance. In the mind of a little boy wearing a boys Optimus Prime costume the Energon is in the form of candy and is mined by the local earth population, and of course he dressed in a boys Optimus Prime costume is tasked with leading the Autobots in battle against the Decepticons.

His main mission is to prevent the Decepticons from destroying the planet’s population and at the same time preventing them from harvesting the seemingly boundless supplies of Energon in the form of candy. Both mission statements overlap each other, yet saving the world’s population does not come without risk, and it is a heavy burden which your little boy wearing a boys Optimus Prime costume has to bear.

There are several versions of the story about the transformers upon which the boys Optimus Prime costume is themed, one has them crash landing on a prehistoric earth at the time of the dinosaurs, only being woken out of stasis is 1985. Another version has them destroying a rogue asteroid on collision course with Cybertron and then coming to earth in search of Energon. There are many versions of the story, many Autobot characters, sub plots and story arcs, all of which make for exciting viewing and reading for kids of all ages, even the one who prefers to be called dad.

The original incarnation of the Autobots in the animated series which first appeared on TV screens back in 1985 was a war among giant robots who could transform into vehicles, other objects and animal-like forms. It was written and recorded in America and the entire series was animated in Japan and South Korea. The entire series was themed around a popular series of transforming toys which were originally created by the Japanese toy manufacturer Takara. These were subsequently developed into the Transformers line of toys by American company Hasbro and which became a “must have” Christmas toy.

Mom, get the little guy in the family a boys Optimus Prime costume for Halloween; it might just be your only chance of salvation against the evil Decepticon invasion force.

Kilowog Muscle Child Costume

In a Kilowog muscle child costume, your child can transform into the strongest member of the Green Lantern Corps and help ensure the Universe (or more realistically, their neighbourhood) remains a safe and peaceful place.

Kilowog is an extremely strong alien from the planet Bolovax Vik, which had a huge population of 16 billion inhabitants, which is located in Space Sector 674. Kilowog was recruited by the Guardians of the Universe to train the newest members of the Green Lantern Corps. Before he was recruited by the Guardians of the Universe, Kilowog was an extremely talented scientist. Leaving his home planet was a huge decision for Kilowog as leaving Bolovax and going into space on various missions was comparable to exile for anyone born on Bolovax.

Kilowog’s potential as a great leader and trainer became clear early on in his time as a Green Lantern as during one training session under his trainer Lantern Emery, Kilowog and other trainees had to protect the Green Lanterns from an attack. Emery, who was fatally wounded in the attack, told Kilowog how great his abilities were and told Kilowog that he would be a great leader in the future.

Kilowog would be the first trainer of the famous Hal Jordan and conducted his training sessions on the Green Lantern Corp’s home planet of Oa. During these training sessions, Kilowog would teach the new recruits how to handle and manage the great power and abilities which came from holding a power ring.

While serving in the Green Lantern Corps, Kilowog also suffered a number of hardships, most notably and devastatingly, the destruction of his home planet Bolovax Vik. However, due to the genetic similarity that all from Bolovax Vik possessed and the love they had for each other, Kilowog was able to save the entire population of his home planet by storing their life essence in his power ring.

As well as being able to use all of the powers provided by his power ring, Kilowog stands out from other Green Lantern Corps due to the incredible strength his people posses and his incredible intelligence. When Kilowog combines all of these abilities he is a match for anyone, even holding his own against the almost invincible Superman!

With a Kilowog muscle child costume, your child can jump into the role of the brutish and hugely intelligent Kilowog. A Kilowog muscle child costume comes with a jumpsuit which is practically identical to the one worn by Kilowog in the Green lantern comic book series and the suit worn by Kilowog in the Green Lantern movie which hit cinema screens last summer (the extremely talented Micheal Clarke Duncan provided the voice of Kilowog for the big screen adventure). A Kilowog muscle child costume also comes with a Kilowog character mask which will instantly transform your child into one of the most crucial and important members of the Green Lantern Corps.

So if your child wants to defend the universe by recruiting and training future Green Lanterns to bring peace and order to the Universe, you should look no further than a Kilowog muscle child costume this Halloween.

Deluxe Jake Sully Costume

With the hit movie release of Avatar being the fantastic sensation it came to be, you are bound to turn a few heads this Halloween by dressing up as a character from it! Who better to dress up as than Jake Sully’s avatar?!

Known for his bravery and military combat skills, Jake’s initial plan was to seed himself within the Omaticaya Clan by entering the Avatar program to look just like one of the Na’vi’s that populate the luscious planet of Pandora. Of course falling in love wasn’t part of the plan and so Jake ended up caught in the middle of a conflict between the U.S marines and the Na’vi. So why not nab yourself the coolest costume around this Halloween and become a new born Na’vi warrior in a deluxe Jake Sully costume!

Of course you won’t really inherit the super strength, speed and stamina that the Na’vi are known for having, nor will you be able to fly an Ikran (mountain banshee), but that doesn’t mean you can’t pretend and have some Avatar fun no matter what Halloween party you go to this year!

The deluxe Jake Sully costume looks almost identical to the Jake we all loved in the movie! It consists of a tan colored pair of trousers and a shirt with a black t-shirt sewn into it. As well as the suit there are extra sleeve parts sewn into the jacket that are made to look just like the blue and stripy skin of the Na’vi. The t-shirt also has a loop of material around the neck to make sure every bit of you looks just as Na’vi as the next. The trousers even have a tail attached to the back of them to make your costume that little bit more authentic. The deluxe Jake Sully costume also has a character mask included with it in case you don’t feel up to getting busy with the face paints! You will have to add your own shoes to the costume, but a simple pair of boots should look the part quite easily!

For the women and girls out there, why not dress up as Jakes lover in Avatar, Neytiri. Daughter of tribe leaders Eytukan and Mo’at, Neytiri is one of the toughest warriors in the Omaticaya clan. She’s respected, fearless and over time she even falls in love with Jake – after a long and painful teaching on how to be one of the Omaticaya.

Jake entered the Avatar program because his twin brother Tom was murdered and a group of RDA scientists requested his participation due to his identical uncanny DNA, you get the opportunity to become an Avatar just for the sake of having the best costume in town! So get on board one of the biggest stories of all time and become a hero of Pandora in your very own deluxe Jake Sully costume!

I am a great fan of Captain America movie costume design however, I will explain how to make a vampire costume. The most important part of a vampires costume are the fangs that sets it apart, with that being said you need to have the right type of fangs as they can cause you problems, there are many options out there, but one would be a great choice: fangs that come in a separate package with adhesives and they can stick on your top jaw, however, a quick movement of the month or a suddenly talk they can drop out. However, the fangs look like the real McCoy’s.

Hedwig Child Costume

According to J K Rowling, the famed author and creator of Harry Potter, the character of Hedwig the owl upon which a Hedwig child costume is themed is a representation of the innocence of the child in Harry Potter.

The reason Hedwig was killed off in the first chapter of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” is the symbolism of Harry’s transition from innocent child to mighty sorcerer, and although I have not read this thus far anywhere, it is a personal belief and open to much conjecture, speculation and debate.

Any example of a Hedwig child costume is themed on the owl in the books and subsequent movie which was given to Harry as an eleventh birthday present by Rubeus Hagrid, who in purchased the owl in the “Sorcerer’s Stone” episode which features Daigon Alley. Throughout the books and in the movies it is intimated that the owl upon which a Hedwig child costume is themed can understand harry as too can he understand the bird, and as such until the bird’s death they are constant companions.

Swooping down on trick or treaters wearing a Hedwig child costume is not really going to happen but in a child’s mind as we all know many strange and wondrous things can happen. A trick or treat adventure, whether it is wearing a Hedwig child costume or any other Harry Potter themed costume means for one night only the wearer is imbued and instilled with magical powers, where anything is possible and the impossible is possible.

Strangely enough, the character of the owl in the movie franchise is played by a succession of male owls and yet in the books and the movies the owl is always referred to as she and being female. Quite why this anomaly occurred is a mystery, but without a doubt a female snowy owl has dark patches of plumage, while only the males are completely white as Hedwig is in the movies.

This was picked up by ornithologist viewers of the first movie yet remained a constant throughout the franchise till the bird met its end in “deathly Hallows” and quite why this is so has, to the best of the writer’s knowledge, not been answered. Perhaps it was a lack of adequate research on the part of the researchers, perhaps we will never know but one thing is for sure any kid wearing a Hedwig child costume for their exciting trick or treat adventure won’t be posing any questions about the sexuality of the costume they are wearing (luckily for us moms everywhere).

Harry Potter is the most successful film franchise in history and is highest grossing film series of all time, with $7.6 billion in worldwide receipts; not bad work if you can get it. Now moms, you don’t need to be earning the same as Ms Rowling or any of the stars of the Harry Potter films in order to buy your little one a fab Hedwig child costume; so perhaps with a little “mom magic” you may just be able to conjure one up in time for Halloween

Kids Mario Costume

A kids Mario costume is themed on the character made famous in the 1985 platform video game developed by Nintendo and published for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was the highly successful sequel to the 1983 game Mario Bros, an adventure set in the Mushroom Kingdom where Mario and his brother Luigi have the task of rescuing the Princess Peach Toadstool from the tower of the wicked antagonist, Bowser.

Your little plumber (for that’s what Mario and Luigi are) can sport a kids Mario costume on Halloween and seek out the idiotic princess who allowed herself to be captured in the first place around the local neighborhood on their trick or treat adventure. Although it is fair to say that a kids Mario costume isn’t a traditional costume associated with Halloween, it is just one of many hundreds of costumes themed on characters from modern fiction, TV and movies as well as iconic figures such as movie stars, pop stars and action characters and superheroes.

The game and the character upon which the kids Mario costume is themed has a basic premise of the lead character having to negotiate a series of obstacles, barriers and other conundrums and challenges while at the same time trying to collect rewards along the way which increase the character’s strength, endurance and fortitude. The ultimate goal is to release the idiotic Princess Peach Toadstool from imprisonment in the tower of Bowser.

Bowser is the evil and greedy arch nemesis of Mario and his brother Luigi, and his plans usually involve kidnapping Princess Peach Toadstool and his continuing yet highly unsuccessful plans in attempting to take over the Mushroom Kingdom. Your little superhero wearing his kids Mario costume can play out the game of his favorite games character; perhaps he has a brother or a friend who could wear a Luigi costume for Halloween, then it would be the terrible two on more than a trick or treat adventure on Halloween.

Mario, the character which the kids Mario costume is themed one is the most successful of all the game releases from the Nintendo stable, only being usurped by Nintendo’s Wii sport. It has been remade, remodeled and refranchised many times although the premise of the game and the tasks laid out before the Mario Brothers remains pretty much a constant thread throughout the entire series.

The game has inspired many items of merchandise over the years and some of the items are very collectable, and while they don’t command a king’s ransom it is a sure bet that as the years go by they will become more valuable and scarce.

Riding Hood Child’s Costume

Some children’s stories make you wonder how they ever became children’s stories. Little Red Riding Hood is one of those stories. The Riding Hood childs costume capture the childlike spirit of the story, though, wiping out all memories of wolves eating grandmothers and children.

Like many popular children’s tales, Little Red Riding Hood began as a fable. Written by The Brothers Grimm, the story focuses on a young, innocent girl, on her way to grandmother’s house when things go horribly wrong. The Riding Hood childs costume captures that childlike innocence with its sweet dress and long, hooded cape.

The Brothers Grimm provided some of the most lasting, memorable fiction of all time. Specializing in retelling and packaging folklore tales, the Grimm brothers brought us Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, and more. Little Red Riding Hood was originally a French tale and has been traced back to the 14^th century, when it was known by such titles as The False Grandmother and The Story of Grandmother. Some have compared the story to Oriental tales.

For today’s children, the Riding Hood child’s costume represents a young girl simply visiting her grandmother and trying to escape the evil clutches of the Big Bad Wolf. This is likely due to the tamed-down versions of the story circulating today, with the grandmother being trapped in the closet instead of eaten by the wolf and Little Red Riding Hood being saved before being eaten. Understandably, parents aren’t eager to read their children bedtime stories about children and grandmothers being eaten by wolves. Children’s book publishers have shifted the story to appeal to younger audiences without frightening them.

The Riding Hood childs costume features a beautiful, German-style dress with a black and white bodice and red skirt. The bodice has a red ribbon lace-up and white eyelet trim that matches the white eyelet trim on the hem of the skirt. An apron covers the skirt, belted at the waist.

For Little Red Riding Hood’s head, a beautiful red hooded cape ties around the neck. The cape drapes over the back of the costume, adding warmth and authenticity. As a bonus, the costume comes with a garment bag to keep the costume in tiptop condition for future Halloweens. A separately-sold Gingham Basket can drape over her arm, either for decoration or to hold all her treats .

The Riding Hood childs costume doesn’t come with shoes, but the Eden Child Shoes in black are perfect for her long walk through the woods to grandmother’s house. They’re comfortable enough for her to outpace the Big Bad Wolf, while looking beautiful with her dress.

Every little girl loves a fairy tale and the Riding Hood childs costume will let her step into the character of one of her favorite story heroines, if only for one night. The beautiful detail will make this one costume she’ll want to wear after Halloween night.

Candy Witch Costume

Have you ever heard of a witch in a candy corn dress and hat who comes out on Halloween in her candy witch costume? There is such a witch but she is not the bad kind of witch that usually comes out and rides her broom through the night on Halloween. She does not hang out with ghouls or goblins and she doesn’t cast any evil spells on people. You wouldn’t expect that from a witch in a candy witch costume.

Throughout the 16^th and 17^th Century there were witches that practiced a form of folk magic. These witches were known as “cunning folk”, white witches, blessers and sorcerer. Sometimes they were known as “unbinding witches” for their ability to remove a curse or spell cast on a person by a bad witch. A witch in a candy witch costume certainly wouldn’t cast a negative spell on anyone.

In the 16^th Century, English author Reginald Scott noted in his book, “The Discoverie of Witchcraft”, “At this day it is indifferent to say in the English tongue ‘she is a witch’ or ‘she is a wise woman”. A “wise woman” was also one of the “cunning folk” or a good witch capable of magic but also capable of healing.

Throughout the Medieval times witches considered themselves mediators between the everyday worlds and the spiritual worlds. These witches had contact with “other-worldly” creatures like fairies and engaged in battles with dark forces such as evil spirits, vampires and night witches. Night witches can appear in the dreams or visions of one under the spell of a bad witch.

A witch considered a sorcerer could use her magic to heal people and was also sometimes called a Magical witch or a seer and a diviner. A benevolent witch could use her power to protect individuals or even whole communities from the malicious influence of a bad witch. Good witches never practice magic on a person without their permission. A witch who practices a benevolent form of magic was welcomed by the community while a negative witch was feared and avoided. A witch in a candy witch costume would be a welcome presence in a community wishing for good fortune.

The one characteristic shared by almost all witches is the ability to cast spells. A spell could be a set of words, a formula or verse or some sort of ritual action. A witch might use a clay image of a person called a “poppet”, a doll that could be dressed in a candy witch costume, to cause a magical effect on them and add magical herbs and potions to the spell for added effect. Use of a candle is a common practice when conjuring a spell as well as gazing into a mirror, a practice called scrying.

Instead of the traditional black witches hat, how about a hat shaped like a candy corn this Halloween? The candy witch costume has a sweet look with its orange, black and yellow colors that makes the perfect costume for Halloween.

Last Airbender Katara Child Costume

She has the ability to bend water with her mind, even cutting through objects with it. But Katara is the last of her kind, left to bond with others who share bending abilities. The Last Airbender Katara child costume is a great tribute to the costume of the film, with its detailed stitching. Your child will be parading around with pride as she relives the moments from one of her favorite movies.

The Last Airbender began as a cartoon on Nickelodeon, airing from 2005 to 2008. Its popularity made M. Night Shyamalan, best known thrillers like The Sixth Sense and Signs. The Last Airbender Katara child costume is based on the film version of Katara, although the animated Katara had a similar fondness for ornately-designed blue robe-like tunics and pants.

In the 2010 film, Katara partners with Aang, a lost young boy who has the ability to manipulate all of the elements. During the course of the film, she becomes Aang’s love interest as they search for the Avatar and battle Zuko, an exiled prince and firebender.

The Last Airbender Katara child costume comes with a knee-length blue robe-like tunic that ties with a belt. White footed pants with tan print fit comfortably beneath the robe. The feet of the pants are similar to the moccasins worn by Katara in the film and TV series.

The one essential item for every Last Airbender Katara child costume is the Katara Necklace. In the film, Katara’s necklace is a family heirloom, given to her by her mother, who died. Katara considers it her most important possession, which made it even more poignant in the animated series when the evil Zuko used it to blackmail her. Katara left it behind but Aang made new one out of flowers for her.

The Katara Necklace is a brown choker in fake leather. The bright blue attached pendant is in the shape of waves, just like in the movie and series. The necklace was originally intended as a betrothal necklace, passed from generation to generation. Katara’s mother was wearing it when she was killed during a Fire Nation raid. The waves of the emblem on the necklace are said to represent the waterbending symbol.

One of the most successful films of 2010, The Last Airbender has captivated a generation of children who relate to its youthful main characters. Aang and Zuko costumes are likely to be in abundance this Halloween, since the movie’s DVD release has put the film fresh on everyone’s minds. Jesse McCartney was originally slated to play Zuko in the film, but his concert schedule conflicted with the filming schedule. The actress who played Katara in the film, Nicola Peltz, so captivated writer/director Shyamalan that he refused to do the film unless she was attached. Shyamalan has said he felt that passionate about a casting decision only once in his career, and that was with Haley Joel Osment in The Sixth Sense.

With Last Airbender costumes so popular this year, the Last Airbender Katara child costume is sure to stand out from the crowd as unique and beautiful.

Boys GI Joe Costume

Be the soldier who always comes to the rescue in your Boys Gi Joe costume. You can be the American hero who saves the day and has been on the front line of action since 1964. G.I. stands for Government Issue and has been a generic term for U. S. soldiers, especially ground forces, for years. G.I. Joe has represented four branches of the military over the years; the Action Soldier (U.S. Army), Action Sailor (U.S. Navy), Action Pilot (USAF), Action Marine (USMC) and later on the Action Nurse.

The term action figure was actually created to describe the first G.I. Joe that came out in 1964. The Hasbro toy company trademarked the name G.I. Joe and created two different toy lines for the 12 inch figure. “America’s moveable fighting man” is a registered trademark of the Hasbro and has been displayed on every boxed figure package since the beginning and up to the present with the Boys Gi Joe costume, an officially licensed G.I. Joe costume.

Now you can be part of the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero line of military action figures as Snake Eyes. Snake Eyes is the code name for a member of the G.I. Joe team. Almost everything about Snake Eyes is classified including his real name and place of birth. All that is known about his military standing is his rank/grade (Master Sergeant/E-8) and that he is a former U.S. Army Special Forces Delta Operator. Now you can be Snake Eyes in your Boys Gi Joe costume.

Snake Eyes favorite quote is: “Move with the wind, and you will never be heard”. We do know he is six feet, two inches tall with an athletic build, blonde hair and blue eyes. He has a quit personality and wears a black “military ninja” body suit with a balaclava (a type of ski mask) and a visor to cover his face. Snake Eyes creator, Larry Hama has said that the character was the most successful action figure ne had ever created. He attributed this to Snake Eye’s mysterious appearance and persona and “he becomes a universal blank slate for projection of fantasy for anybody”. You can project any fantasy you want in your Boys GI Joe costume and even include Snake Eye’s pet wolf “Timber”.

Thomas S. Arashikage, (Arashi meaning “storm” and kage meaning “shadow” in Japanese) is better known as Storm Shadow. He is a special operations soldier who serves along side Snake Eyes. At times he has been an ally of Snake Eyes and G.I. Joe but also their most bitter enemy as a member of Cobra Command where he served as the Cobra Commander’s ninja bodyguard and even an assassin for the organization.

Storm Shadow is a Japanese American who wears a white uniform and mask and also was created by comic book writer and artist, Larry Hama. Storm Shadow’s tattoo is a hexagram of the I Ching which says in English “Already Fording”.

Will you be Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow this Halloween in your Boys Gi Joe costume?

Dementor Child Costume

Become one of the foulest creatures of all as you guard Azkaban Prison for wizards in your Dementor child costume. Wizards who violate the laws of the British wizarding world are sent to the dreaded Azkaban prison and it is your job to prevent them from escaping. Many of Lord voldemort’s most evil supporters are there so you must keep them locked up in your Dementor child costume.

In “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” Azkaban prison id described as a place of evil and fear located “in the middle of the North Sea”. It is a tall, black triangular prison, somewhat hollow in the middle. There is a cemetery on the grounds outside the building where prisoners who have dies there are buried adding to the macabre feeling of the prison.

A crime punishable by a whole life sentence in Azkaban is performing any of the Unforgivable Curses on a human. Other crimes which merit a sentence in the horrible place are assaulting the Ministry of Magic such as the Death Eaters did in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”, being an unregistered Animagus (a wizard who can morph into an animal at will), and impersonating an Inferius (a corpse controlled like a puppet by a Dark wizard’s spells).

Dementors are human in shape and about ten feet tall. They are covered in dark, hooded cloaks that reveal only grey, decayed hands. They have no eyes and where a mouth would normally be is only a large hole. They have few magical abilities except for unlocking prison doors and they can also fly in a gliding type of motion.

According to J. K. Rowling “they grow like fungi in the darkest, dankest places, creating a dense, chilly fog”. When a Dementor is near the atmosphere grows cold and dark and gets worse the more Dementors are present in their Dementor child costume. When a Dementor is near its prey the victim is forced to relive their worst memories because the evil entity feeds on the positive and happy memories drawing them out of its victims. Because they have no eyes, they must hunt their prey by sensing these good emotions.

The Dementors do have trouble sensing animals because their feelings are more primitive than humans. Because of this particular weakness, Sirius Black, an Animagus, was able to escape from Azkaban by transforming into a dog.

The Dementors came close to defeating Harry in he was in the Forbidden Forest with Sirius Black by permorming the “Dementor”s Kiss”. This dreadful procedure involves the foul creature latching its “mouth hole” onto a victim’s lips and sucking out the person’s soul. After the kiss, the victim is left an empty shell incapable of thought and with no hope of recovery. The Patronus charm is the only way to shield yourself from the deadly creatures in their Dementor child costume.

Guard the prisoners at Azkaban in your Dementor child costume which includes a black character mask and long black robe with chest piece.

Baby Snow White costume

Dress your little princess up to impress this Halloween in the baby Snow White costume. Snow White was one of the kindest and loveliest of all the Disney princesses and is therefore a favorite with many people. Dress up your little one as one of the most popular princesses around and you’re guaranteed that she will be the cutest girl in town.

Snow white, lured into the woods by a huntsman hired by her wicked step-mother, flees when he tells her that he has orders to kill her. The reason for this planned cruelty? The wicked queen’s magic mirror named Snow White as the fairest in the land, jolting the queen unceremoniously from her post as the most beautiful. In the baby Snow White costume your little one will be just as envied as Snow White was.

The dress of the costume is just like the one we see Snow White wear in the movie. A beautiful yellow skirt, covered with sparkles is matched with a pale blue top half. The trademark red and blue puffed sleeves really finish off the Snow White look perfectly. There are even little red roses around the waist band and the neckline of the dress – just like Snow Whites red as a rose lips!

Lost and alone in the woods, far from the queens sights, Snow White stumbles upon a little cottage and decides to call for help. Finding that nobody is at home she sets to work adding a woman’s touch to the little neglected cottage and is soon joined by all of the woodland creatures that love her dearly. Worn out she falls asleep across a group of tiny beds, much like your little one will probably be ready to do at the end of Halloween night, Snow White is awoken when the house owners, a band of seven dwarves come home.

The seven dwarves quickly decide that they like having the beautiful Snow White around to help them out and agree that she can stay for as long as she needs to. In return Snow White looks after the dwarves and makes sure they mind their manners all whilst looking super elegant! The baby Snow White costume even has a cameo on the front of it with a picture of Snow White’s face. Your baby will be sure to charm the seven dwarves as well in her adorable costume.

The queen discovers that Snow White is still alive and plans to kill her with a poisoned apple. You could even take some adorable pictures of your little girl in her costume with a big shiny red apple sat next to her to make her look just like the real Snow White! This sends Snow White into a sleep that makes her look as though she is dead. Laid to rest in a glass casket, one day a prince rides by and is struck by Snow Whites beauty. He leans down to kiss her red rose lips and she awakens to his kiss leaving them free to ride off into the sunset together.

The baby Snow White costume will need a pair of shoes adding to it to make it complete and probably isn’t suitable for outdoors activities, especially if Halloween is a cold time of year where you live. Of course your little princess will need a good party to show off her new party dress!

So make your little girls Halloween an extra special one this year in her very own baby Snow White costume. She’s bound to be the fairest of them all in this super cute get up.
