 |
|
Was wondering has anyone put a costume/outfit together from The Avengers + The New Avengers. I am very interested in cosplaying John Steed (who isn't), and was just wondering if anyone here has cosplayed as Steed, or/and has cosplayed as an Avenger at all?

I have just bought myself a bowler hat which is listed in this thread below:

I already have a whangee style umbrella which is a good thing. Just need to think about the right type of suit to wear, and also a red carnation.

| I think I've already made up in the back of my mind that if I HAD TO go all dressed up to something, I'd prefer going as Steed, although I don't have Macnee's build to pull it off. |
