New York Comic Con gave us an early look at the upcoming 1/8 scale Ghostbusters Ecto-1 model kit from Eaglemoss. We take a close look at the details of this scaled replica and learn how the pieces will arrive in this weekly build up. The interior details and working lights are pretty impressive!

At New York Comic Con, Adam Savage meets YouTuber/prop maker/cosplayer Clayton Parker (aka Uncle Jessy) for the first time! Clay shows Adam his Magneto costume, which is a mashup of the classic Jim Lee X-Men comic design and a modern looking statue from Sideshow Collectibles. Known for his 3D printing, this was Clay's first time sewing, but you'd never know it!

One of Adam's favorite cosplay costumes gets revamped and upgraded with an awesome animatronic feature! No-Face transforms into a hungry beast with a massive mechanized mouth, a build which ends up being much more complicated that planned. Shop assistants Jen and Mel also take on the task of fabricating foam props for No-Face to eat. This cosplay build ended up being quite a journey!

In 2018, Beverly Downen of Downen Creative Studios went viral with her incredible Hela costume and super accurate (and adjustable!) headdress. For New York Comic Con 2019, she rebuilt and improved her suit, which in part included a technique of adding texture to fabric that totally impressed Adam Savage!

At New York Comic Con 2019, Adam Savage meets Regan Cerato and Scone of Cowbutt Crunchies Cosplay, two extraordinary makers and cosplayers. Adam was SO impressed with their costumes -- Helga Sercle, a boss character from a Korean MMORPG, and an original cosplay/sewing-inspired knight design -- we had to motion to him off-camera to please stop talking because we were running over time!

We meet artist and toy designer James Groman, whose King Korpse toy won the best Designer Toy of the Year award in 2017. We check out his latest one-off painted variant of the figure, and chat with James about his art style and origins of this jaw-dropping sculpt!

Adam Savage meets up with the amazingly talented Melissa Ng (aka Lumecluster) at New York Comic Con to see the latest improvements to her wearable gothic-inspired fantasy armor. Melissa shows how she revamped her cosplay from last year to be more versatile and historically true to gothic armor design. Plus, watch as Melissa and her collaborator Megan Dellario quickly swap armor components to transform their cosplays!

One of our favorite things about New York Comic Con is the different showing of statue and collectibles companies from other big pop culture conventions. XM Studios once again brought an impressive display of prototype superhero statues, including an 8-character battle diorama and new figures in their popular Samurai Batman line!

Adam's new No-Face costume has arrived at New York Comic Con and it's time for an incognito walk through the show floor! We tag along to see how the crowd reacts to this transformation of the iconic Spirited Away character, and the gasps do not disappoint. No-Face is hungry!

We meet makeup artist Sidney Cumbie at Monsterpalooza, where he gives a makeup demo of a cyclops mask using off-the-shelf prosthetics from RBFX. This makeup shows how effective readymade prosthetics can be, especially when combined with a great costume. This warrior cyclops wears a familiar armor!

Adam Savage reveals his latest cosplay: a rebuild and upgrade of his No-Face costume, featuring an incredible new mechanized mouth! Adam walks us through the design of this costume and how he puppets it from within. No-Face is hungry! Did you find Adam wearing this at New York Comic Con?

Artist Ben Schwenk shows us his collection of animatronic art pieces, which combine his eye-catching creature design with purposeful mechanized movement. These are sculptures that come alive and become more animated the more you stare at them.

Effects artist and creature designer Ivonne Escoto creates unique furry creatures, all from scratch. She brought a selection of her creations to Monsterpalooza, and shows us how their sculpted faces and patterned fur bodies never yield the same character twice. We're smitten by these beasts!

We check out the new resin 3D printer from Peopoly, the makers of the popular Moai laser SLA printer. The $1800 Phenom is an MSLA 3D printer that uses a 4K LCD for curing prints instead of a laser, with a build volume of 10.9"x6.1"x15.7". We chat with Peopoly's co-founder about the challenges of designing this kind of printer, the consumables used, and take a look at some test prints!

The Wand Company's delightful Fallout Pip-Boy replica kit finds a new place in our studio with this official bluetooth speaker stand. We love the care and attention to detail the designers at The Wand Company put into their replicas and kits, from the packaging to the instruction manual. Here's how this simple kit comes together, and a surprise feature as well!

Designer toys and found objects get remixed in the assemblage art of artist Gmonik, who we meet at this year's Son of Monsterpalooza. Gmonik walks us through a few of his pieces, how he mashes up found objects together, and the stories he's trying to tell with them.

We meet Andrew Clement, the founder of Creative Character Engineering, an effects and fabrication shop that's worked on films like Deadpool and shows like The Boys. Andrew chats with us about how his team collaborates with costume designers and makeup departments to create memorable effects, and how his company integrates new technology into their processes.
