You might want to remove that Snape costume for me as I won't be wearing it for acen! Add on a tentative Seto Kaiba cosplay though

Done & Done, I know you had that at Geekkon, so I thought I would list it

Are you still considering doing a Charmander?

Yes, and would it be terrible if I didn't dye my hair orange for Charmander? I kind of need it to be black for Medic...

I'd just get an orange wig, there are a few sites Ive been looking at for a blonde one, and a simple wig was something like $25

Thought you were going to try one of the Big Lebowski characters on for size?

I sense the potential for a group cosplay here.

The loss of 30 pounds (probably 50 to 60 by the time ACEN comes around) will make cosplaying as Walter a bit harder.

A bunch of us are planning to do Payday: The Heist characters, but I need the devs to respond to see if we can procure the masks. No masks, no payday.

Asking for source material. Unless you have the talent to hand-craft replicas of the masks....

Ripped with ease

Hi Tim,

Thank you for your email - and I'm sorry this response comes so late. I'm happy to hear that you and your friends enjoy the game so much!

To answer your question: There are no replica masks that can be ordered. You can find replicas of Dallas' mask on Ebay (it's a replica created by SOE that we handed out at ComiCon, GamesCom and other gaming events) - that's the only one that exists but you'll have to buy it from Ebay as neither SOE nor Overkill sells it.

The original masks - the one that we used ourselves at E3 and were used for promotional photo shoots - exist in only one copy each, and needless to say those aren't for sale.

The masks are quite in demand so maybe we'll consider putting replicas of all of them in production some time in the future. This is not planned at the moment though.

Thank you again for your email, have a great 2012 and keep enjoying the game - DLC is coming in a not too distant future!

Cheers,
Simon Viklund of OVERKILL Software

So, uh, make your own masks then from screenshots?

Fun exercise in crafting time?
