I love it when people have put genuine effort into their cosplay costumes, always great to see such creativity and dedication! Keep rockin' that nerd life my friends!
The Lord of Darkness statue from the movie Legend was up for pre order almost two years ago. I pre ordered mine back then, they will ship it this year.
Dude! That Buzz Lightyear Stormtrooper cosplayer at 17:29 is Hendo from the AWE channel! Her stuff is awesome. I watched her make that cosplay on Twitch a few days ago :D Small world!
I was here! But on the Sunday. Sunday is great for walking the floor, great sales and light crowds, but the day was so short that there wasn't time for us to see panels after the floor. I went over three days last year, and I neeeed to go back to that next year for sure.
I love the Toy Story costumes idea Frank - Buzz Lightyear Norm - Woody Norm's wife - Jessie Adam - Emperor Zurg or one of the Aliens I could see Simone having fun as Rex or a Ms. Potato Head Or how about making a soldier costume and a bug from Starship Troopers.
That was so cool! I've always wanted to go to a con out in the States but have never been able to afford it. This gives a great sneak peek into what it's like! Also really impressed at how slick the video was! You never ran out of things to talk about and never got snarled up too bad. Thanks Norm and Frank!
You know what I don't see a lot of at conventions is Animaniacs characters, or like Earthworm Jim, or stuff like that. Animaniacs had so many notable characters as well that could be cosplayed. Yako, Whacko, Dot, Pinky and the Brain, The three pigeons, Rita the squirrel, HELLO NURSE, and many more. Just cartoons that maybe many watched as a kid and will remember but that are not that memorable today until somebody sees it and says, HEY I REMEMBER THAT GROWING UP. Like Street Sharks, Toxic Crusader, Snorks, Tail Spin, Duck Tales, The Grimm Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Rocco's Modern Life, Ren and Stimpy, etc.. Just things like those that not many people do at conventions but people would love to see them and remember them when they see them.
aw wish we got to see the darkwing duck one.. hey but go wild and do a gizmo duck one :D where yall stand one one of those single wheel electric thingies
7:05 it is crazy that you are talking about how the con is just about fans of various things getting together and someone who is obviously a fan sees you.
Was that Capetian Hook I saw!?! And a Green Ranger too? Who were the 2 girls being followed by the bounty hunter? Sailor scouts or just school girls from some other series? I really wish we had conventions where I live.
Rarely see puppeteer type cosplay actually. Like doc oct's hands, would it cool if they move as you move. Or like I'm working on is a Ghost Rider cosplay, everything is ok considering it's the new ver, but the flames, it's hard to find a good material to make flame effects as a cosplay. Sure resin is an option but that might be alil bit heavy. Also the fact how work the nose, like how to work the shape of the helmet/cosplay without ruining the proposition... other then that, there's not alot of Megazord cosplay.
Thanks for the tour, but holy hell you need to get a camera that runs at a higher FPS or uses a codec that doesn't blur the frames so much. Every pan hurt my eyes because everything was so out of focus.
CREDITS ROLL FILMS That's a Steadicam. But I don't doubt if it's been modified. The camera people I know they always modify their equipment to suit them.
theylied1776 this is definitely a small handheld gimbal, not a steadicam. It's either something like a DJI Osmo or a smaller DSLR gimbal. The jerky pans give away the lightweight gimbal. It's also clearly been post-stabilized.
This is much appreciated. I live in the boonies and don't get a chance to get to these things. It's nice to be able to see them :D. Great commentary as well from both of you. I've got to second the request for non-blurring camera. It's the one let-down of the video.
You should do the Chroma Conclave from Critical Role: Thordak the Cinder King (Red Dragon), Raishan the Diseased Deceiver (Green Dragon, +2 humanoid forms), Vorugal the Fridge Doom (White Dragon), Umbrasyl the Hope Devourer (Black Dragon), Brimscythe the Iron Storm (Blue Dragon).
How is your camera person keeping the camera stable? (also, what camera?) I'm guessing it's nothing too obnoxious because it doesn't look like any one is paying attention to the video being taken.
The Gimbel was getting away from the cameraman. It tilted too far up. Another issue is that many times Norm and Frank were talking about something, and the camera completely missed it. It's like the cameraman thought Norm and Frank were what the viewer wanted to see the most, and not what was at the show. They should have had a B camera shooting also to add some drop-in shots of actual attendees, and not just the "stars".
My feet are already throbbing in sympathetic corn formation! WonderCon does look more manageable. NICE Famelli Photo Bomb! Too cool for the room... Okay, Frank-- gut check -- and well, it can't be you -- a Johansson/Major body suit in silicon. Make whoever lucky gal is in that suit LOOK like Scarlett-- a bonus.
The big convention experience, for those who have never been: Walk in, fight people to try and get around, in 15-20 minutes you've seen everything, stand in line for several hours for a 1 hour panel, buy overpriced food, your feet hurt, go to bed in a cheap hotel room.
WONDERCON was a blast! my fav SoCal event of this kind! thanks for watching!
can I ask a question?
Wish you guys had a 60FPS camera so much blur while trying to look around
I want a video highlighting Norm's poster collection.
Please use 60fps video the next time, turning around would be much smoother .
I love it when people have put genuine effort into their cosplay costumes, always great to see such creativity and dedication! Keep rockin' that nerd life my friends!
If I had a dollar for every girl that found me unattractive they would eventually find me attractive
More camera time on the booths please
Laura Stewart they usually do highlights.
7:06 those kids totally recognize Norm
The Lord of Darkness statue from the movie Legend was up for pre order almost two years ago. I pre ordered mine back then, they will ship it this year.
You guys should be Chunk and Sloth from Goonies. My favorite movie of all time.
Motion blur
Frank should cosplay Bill Doran from punished props.
Dude! That Buzz Lightyear Stormtrooper cosplayer at 17:29 is Hendo from the AWE channel! Her stuff is awesome. I watched her make that cosplay on Twitch a few days ago :D Small world!
5:29 was that a kid cosplaying as jaco pastorius?
Norm what happened to your lip?
You need to walk around with a 360 cam
I like how George R R Martin is speaking to to a grim reaper @5:26
Y not kif & zapp branigan?
I was here! But on the Sunday. Sunday is great for walking the floor, great sales and light crowds, but the day was so short that there wasn't time for us to see panels after the floor. I went over three days last year, and I neeeed to go back to that next year for sure.
Ryuk, Shinigami from Death Note (Frank). Norm can do Light.
I love the Toy Story costumes idea
Frank - Buzz Lightyear
Norm - Woody
Norm's wife - Jessie
Adam - Emperor Zurg or one of the Aliens
I could see Simone having fun as Rex or a Ms. Potato Head
Or how about making a soldier costume and a bug from Starship Troopers.
frank loves to look at everything . and norm just loves to talk lol great video
The Joey cameo was my favorite part
I was that Robin cosplayer at 5:58 with the DC group! I can't believe I missed you guys! :(
Jack Kendall I missed them all weekend too now I'm afraid I'm gonna find myself in the bg's of all their videos too lol
That was so cool! I've always wanted to go to a con out in the States but have never been able to afford it. This gives a great sneak peek into what it's like! Also really impressed at how slick the video was! You never ran out of things to talk about and never got snarled up too bad. Thanks Norm and Frank!
this much panning should be filmed in 60 fps. Would be much more pleasing to the eye.
Groot and rocket raccoon.
you know, haven't ever seen a preator suit from doom (2016) .if anyone could pull it off would be the team of tested
Buzz light year Storm trooper ?
Pink Chubbaca ?
What the fuck is that about ?

Thus starts the season of five pages of creepers at cons every time you search nerdy topics on youtubes.
I love going to cons in Anaheim. It's much more relaxed then LA or San Diego.
aw wish we got to see the darkwing duck one.. hey but go wild and do a gizmo duck one :D where yall stand one one of those single wheel electric thingies
It's fantastic,bravo !
7:05 it is crazy that you are talking about how the con is just about fans of various things getting together and someone who is obviously a fan sees you.
Image stabilisation is glorious.
Akira blob monster from the final scene
Was that Capetian Hook I saw!?! And a Green Ranger too?
Who were the 2 girls being followed by the bounty hunter? Sailor scouts or just school girls from some other series?
I really wish we had conventions where I live.
Dress as famous spaceships !
I miss going to conventions, thanks for the walk-through, great video.
*puts aviators on*
I hope I looked cool doing that
what exactly are you suppose to do to attend a panel?
Damn I miss you guys! I barely got into the actual con on Friday and Saturday. Cosplay problems
18:00 was that a Homer Vegeta mashup?
It was fun joining you guys for a walk! :-D
Frank is the dude I hung out for a night in st. Louis back in 2012 I believe.. Scream work studios.?
Do they have funko pop exclusives?
Some form of mech? like gundam or macross, that'd be kinda cool to see
The girl in the blue dress that walks by at 3:20 is she supposed tone from Steins Gate? forget her nam but that who she looked like

how about Wander and one of the Colossi?
is it free to get in or do u pay to get in
Thanks for the tour, but holy hell you need to get a camera that runs at a higher FPS or uses a codec that doesn't blur the frames so much. Every pan hurt my eyes because everything was so out of focus.
Whoever the person is on the Steadicam you are fucking flawless. For those who don't know it is not easy to pull off these movements.
theylied1776 I doubt it's an actual steadicam, its most likely an electronic gimbal.
CREDITS ROLL FILMS That's a Steadicam. But I don't doubt if it's been modified. The camera people I know they always modify their equipment to suit them.

i love all the dragoncon drops
Do some Monster Hunter armor, there's tons of options
Wait, around 5:30 the guy checking out that scythe on the left. Is that George R. R. Martin?!
This is much appreciated. I live in the boonies and don't get a chance to get to these things. It's nice to be able to see them :D. Great commentary as well from both of you.
I've got to second the request for non-blurring camera. It's the one let-down of the video.
I love your video and what camera are you using? I'ma newbie getting into vlogging and this was cool to watch. We also had a blast going!
That Reinhardt looked like he was gonna bash some skulls. Should test his hammer.
why is it called Wondercon.
I think you should go as Calvin and Hobbs as spaceman spiff, that way you could build a great ray gun, and maybe turn a wagon into a spaceship!
Be the robots from mystery science theater 3000
why dont you do a He-Man?
There was a severe lack of Ghostbusters.
Im Like yeaaa!
Do the Buzz Lightyear!
Do an extremely accurate in-character Deadpool cosplay
You should do the Chroma Conclave from Critical Role: Thordak the Cinder King (Red Dragon), Raishan the Diseased Deceiver (Green Dragon, +2 humanoid forms), Vorugal the Fridge Doom (White Dragon), Umbrasyl the Hope Devourer (Black Dragon), Brimscythe the Iron Storm (Blue Dragon).

Can't watch these, they give me motion sickness. Gave it a thumbs up for the content and effort though!
Do Gundam Wing Zero. you like samurai and mechs. so gundam is a good choice.
Marvin the depressed robot
cosplay as the green hornet and Kato

buzz and woody ! that should be the cosplay
That's me as Indiana Jones 18:45
Prove it.
Do Urgot from League of Legends. No one ever does a Urgot. That will be a technical, fun project for sure.
6:04 It's ya boi
Thx, would've been cool as a 360 degree
My feet are already throbbing in sympathetic corn formation! WonderCon does look more manageable.
NICE Famelli Photo Bomb! Too cool for the room...
Okay, Frank-- gut check -- and well, it can't be you -- a Johansson/Major body suit in silicon. Make whoever lucky gal is in that suit LOOK like Scarlett-- a bonus.
3:44 I found Waldo

DawntreaderUK watch from a few seconds before when the camera pans to the left. In the far back 😏
Oh yeh - fuk me. hes in the back - amazing

Prince is pretty cool!
camerawork was so cringy, worst part at 18:38
Make an Ornstein and Smough cosplay from Dark Souls. Seems challenging enough.
Great t shirt Frank!

Ares from the new Wonder Woman film

Forget what we say go incognito and don't tell us

Beta Ray Bill costume would be cool.
