Step 5The Gimmick
There's very little I can offer in the way of general advice here. The gimmick is very much down to theme and available materials.
Maybe your character needs an appropriate weapon or other physical prop, such as a staff or other odd device.
Maybe the character has some sort of sonic power, in which case you need to add weird noises to the suit.
Captain Pinata
The Captain's gimmick is kind of obvious - he's full of sweets.
Obviously, I have no desire to be smashed apart on every outing, instead I added removable sweets. I small pieces of duct-tape to hang small bags of sweets on the inside of the breast-plate, so that I could hand them out to the deserving kiddies. Whenever there was a lull in the party, I'd pull off a packet and throw it into the crowd.
