Last minute Doctor Octopus costume

Step 5Finishing touches

Finishing touches
For finishing touches, I attached this old pouch/pocket thingy to cover up the top of the backpack, where everything comes together. Looks kinda cool.

I covered up the white brand logos on the backpack with black duct tape.

Green jeans and a green sweatshirt. Not a super stylish guy, Doc Ock.

In the comics, he usually wears snazzy goggles. I found an old pair of very clunky sunglasses that seemed to do the trick. I think these are the kind that fit over your prescription eyeglasses.

The neoprene belt seemed to pull things together, and provided welcome lower back support for a night of drinking....errr, trick-or-treating.

The costume got good reactions around the neighborhood. My kids were impressed, and this year my 7-year-old wants me to help him make his own costume... a DIY'er is born - mission accomplished!

Happy Halloween...
