FIVE THINGS

Ryne announced at the beginning of 2020 that he wanted to be a Camaro that actually transformed into Bumblebee. Last year everyone but Boom got a special costume. He got pajamas. Madeline set aside a box in January and then put off construction for as long as possible.

1) After watching a dozen videos about how to build the costume, Madeline chooses the vacuum cleaner box and starts to reshape it as she sees fit.

2) She decides the lining of a box from a fan could be the roof. The tape is too transparent.

3) Ryne tries on the boxes to see if they will fit.

4) Madeline glue guns more pieces together, adding a spoiler but avoiding attaching any straps.

5) She runs out of tape.

6) Madeline goes to Spirit Halloween. There’s no way he could wear the cardboard costume for school because he can’t sit in it Why make him wear a T-shirt under the homemade version?

Madeline’s original plan was to finish the Bumblebee costume in time to shoot it for this issue, but that’s not happening. So here is Betty test driving her bad Spinel makeup in her reversible costume based on the character introduced in Steven Universe: The Movie.
