I did! it was awesome to get so many stares!

Of course since I was Link I also got a whole lot of "It's Robin Hood!" and "It's Peter Pan!"

This one woman was so excited to see a Link, though, she was like "Link, I need a picture of you! My son loves Zelda!" So she took a couple pictures and said "Thank you so much, he's going to frame this picture!"

Just thinking about a little kid looking at a picture his mother took of my costume and saying "Whoa! That's awesome!" was so freaking cool! ^_^

Since the place I was staying at was about 10 blocks away from the hotel, I walked to and from the con in costume for all three days. I got a whole bunch of stares (mostly due to my short skirt than actual character recognition) but it was no big deal. I mean, come on, this is New York. XD This one guy tried talking to me in Japanese though when I was walking home on Sunday.

That's so cute how the mom took your pic. ^_^

[Galaxia]

I walked to sbarros and back to Penn Station in my Galaxia costume....I got a "Isn't it a little too early for Halloween?"

[ChibiRinoa]

I got a few people say "nice hair" including the bellboy and a few guests at our hotel, who were all convinced that my pink wig was my real hair -.-

[hnt]

I walked to Ray's Pizza Store.... in a heavy Hinata coat XD Mygod... the heat in the store.... *dies*

[fireyoukai16]

I did, but it wasn't too bad ^^ all i got was a few stares when i was walking to this chinese/japanese restaurant :p

[tristasusen]

Yep , I had to take the train from newark to nyc and then walk all the way to the hotel, how crazy, when i was vash everyone kept on calling my group the matrix group, and then when i was link people were calling me peter pan, just like u

[aeva]

Yeah, I had to walk around NYC a LOT. In my Pai costume. >.>;;;; At one point, I had an entire restaurant staring at me as I ate [the wall we were sitting next to was a mirror]. Between the odd, skimpy halter top, the flowing leopard-print half-skirt around my waist, the third eye in the middle of my forehead, and my 6-foot staff, there was quite a lot to stare at. My friend Johnathan and I came from New Jersey via the PATH trains, so we had to walk from 33rd to 45th coming to and from the con. ....yeah, a lot of stares.

I think it would have been weirder if we were both in our Malice Mizer costumes. We were supposed to go as Le Ciel Közi [me] and Beast of Blood Yu~ki [Jonathan], but due to shipping problems with all of my feathers, we had to cancel that. Yarrr. We were in the "Mana Wars" skit, too. We could have won! ;___;

.....on a related note, I think I also got a lot of stares in NYC because I was nearly falling out of my effing shirt.

We got more stares back in Jersey City, though. Somehow, I managed to lock my keys in my car, and we didn't realize until we got back to my Pimp-mobile [yesh, that's my car's name]. So he and I had to wait 45 minutes for AAA to arrive, and we were both REALLY cold. I only had thin jazz pants over my costume [which is made of cotton and spandex and is backless/sleeveless]; Jonathan had a fishnet shirt on. Yesh. Cold. Lots of staring and dirty old men. ._.

[TheAnarCHris]

My the friend "The Pope" made three children cry on a deli run.

As for me, ppl dug my Axel Lowe shirt, so no complaints from the Starwind front.

[Agent Smith]

I did!

Another Agent and I wandered around Toy R US in Times Square.

Some people thought we were FBI members! O_O

The funniest mistake though, was one of the moving crew helping load [pallets at the hotel:

"Wow! I LOVE the Blues Brothers!" ^_^

[dylan no tama]

i walked down to penn station and a few resturant in my costume
a few people thought my duel disk was some kind of weapon

[LadyGackt]

i was walking with a chibi Goku and these girls in a limo roll down their windows and go "OMFG ITS GOKU!!! HIIIII"
and the chibi goku im with goes "YO PEACE OUT MAN"
and the girls get soo excited and they scream "OMG OMG"

O_o luckily i arrived at the hotel and changed or else people wouldve thought i was crazy XD

[Jubie-Chan]

of course i did. this women on the train kept stairing at my friend. (who was merle from escaflowne) and my ranma friend, and me they thought we were at some sort of matial arts competition (koaru kamiya training form is me) and in McDonalds everyone was in costume so i got no stares... the nakid cowboy took all the attention

[Zetchi]

[LadyGackt]
