How to Make a Robot Suit

Step 7 Pinchers

Like the football, you probably won't find these weird little plastic pieces, so just get creative with designing robot hands. Originally I was going to just spray paint some old gloves silver. I basically cut the plastic scale in half, then taped them together to create a basic hinge. Then using hot glue and cardboard I covered the backs of each claw so you couldn't see the actors hands inside. Finish up with a groovy two tone paint job.

You now have all the key components to a vintage style robot. Mine was pretty uncomfortable to wear. So make sure and buy whoever you get to be inside it a soda...a cold one.
