This robot costume transforms its wearer into a living version of Honda's mini ASIMO robot. This costume from the Japan Trend Shop is a fully body suit consisting of a head piece, body, gloves and shoes. Although the robot still has body parts that resemble a human's, the suit fully disguises the wearer's body and facial features to make its wearer look more like a machine.
Wearing this suit would be a great way to pull a prank on someone, but as the Japan Trend Shop notes, you will need help to get in and out of this suit. Other than a helping hand, you'd need to complete this look by busting out your best robot moves to make this costume all the more convincing.
