Hello, forum! I'm a long-time fan of Futurama (I remember watching My Three Suns as a new episode after a driver's ed class when I was 17). Halloween is also my favorite holiday and this year my girlfriend and I went all out on our costumes. I'd like to share them with you all here.

I'm Morbo and she's Nibbler. Our friends are Leela and Farnsworth and I couldn't tell you who Bender is - we just met him out on the street on Halloween night and had to get a picture of all of us (it was an excellent rendition of Bender, after all!)
Most of our time was spent entirely on the helmets which were made from plaster, stryrofoam, pipe cleaners and lots of paint. It took us a solid month to complete them but we were a big hit with Futurama fans and lay people alike so it was totally worth it. Nibbler was by far the most popular - my girl was bombarded by people wanting a picture. Morbo was lesser known but the true fans expressed their appreciation.
I hope you all had wonderful Halloweens. These costumes were so successful that I'm tempted to try again next year with other characters from our beloved show.
Anyone else go as a Futurama character this year?
