Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



YouTuber petemander1 is going to be the talk of his Halloween party as he's going to have the best Halloween costume of the night. petemander1 is working on a Covenant Elite costume based on the Halo games. The thing that makes his costume stand out from others' though, is that it incorporates animatronics and the eyes and mandibles are all remote-controllable.

The video above and after the jump shows off what petemander1 has created so far. It looks great, yet it also looks pretty scary. I don't know about petemander1, but if this was my project, I'd use it to run around scaring little children in order to steal their candy ...

Man ... I'm a jerk.

And the winner is Wendy in her Chewbacca custom.

This is fantastic I'd love if they ever do make their damn halo movie if they used practical effects.

Anyone else miss animatronics? CG just doesn't seem to match the pseudo realism animatronics did.

the elite looks like a mix of those demons from "the gate" plus a predator.
