So if this is the next theme, who will be who? And what will you be?
Updated to include possible powers: 1. Dorothy Gale : storm power for tornados 2. Toto : ? 3. Scarecrow : mind power, cause I only want a brain 4. Tin Man : axe attack power 5. Cowardly Lion : claws attack power, use Lion head costume 6. Glinda, the Good Witch of the North : maybe a support type 7. Wicked Witch of the West : ? Fire, cause she hates water 8. munchkins : just be short, no power comes to mind 9. flying monkeys : fly travel 10. The Wizard of Oz : maybe Troller/Dom

Here's some costume ideas. Instead of making a Toto I figured we could use the new Shepard pet and have it just follow along. With the Wizard and the Munchkins I used the Steampunk costumes, they seamed to fit them best. The Flying Monkeys? Didn't see anyway to make them nothing looked right at all. Couldn't get scarecrow costume right no matter what I did it just didn't look right. I have all these saved as a costume file if anyone would like use one, or use as guide and build something more to your liking. As far powers I like Spec's ideas, except for maybe Scarecrow. Instead mind power perhaps we could go with ice/ice blaster cause hes afraid of fire

hoping to solve most of my problems before the winter event.
Good job with the costumes! Actually, that was another reason for my post. I'm usually okay with costumes, but drawing a blank with this theme. Some good examples help a lot.

I have a scarecrow that I was messing around with. I'll take a picture later and and post it to see what you think. OK...still not sure if I wanna play the scarecrow or not yet but here's my version...just can't decide between 3 faces... What you think?

OK, so I'm finally done with finding a new place and moving and now I'm just unpacking and getting settled in. So what's the status on this or any new themed group?

Seems to be on hold for the time being with lots of computer trouble for everyone else and Kal perhaps being done with the game

With so many computer issues, I'm blaming the high activity in Solar Flares for all the issues. Maybe those people that wrap themselves in alumnium foil are on to something.
Other than that, as good as the costume designer is, I just can not figure out any good designs. Would like to use the Cat heads, but if I remember, you get limited on head gear. For Tin Man, you either look like a bad Iron Man or Clockwork. And the Scarecrow had me puzzled, but libby and smurf pulled on good ones. Maybe, my brain has been too occupied with the craziness of life lately to be creative. I made some flying monkey designs, but still I was not happy with them.

Hmm...maybe I'll take a stab at the tin man for you and see what I can come up with...tho I don't have all the costume parts that you probably have.

How are these?

Tin Man should be thinner and the horns on the head look odd to me.
Lion looks good, but I would go with different claws, perhaps the Widow ones since they it would look like he is just using his "normal claws" as lion would.

So with all the posts here are we considering starting the Wicked Wiz of Oz?

I figured since this is "Wicked" Wiz and not normal making the tin man huge would make sense. I'm game to play...still not sure about Scarecrow...especially after making the Lion but I'll wait and make my choice after you guys do.

So with all the posts here are we considering starting the Wicked Wiz of Oz? I have, but the setbacks have been killers . . . (1) Computers crashing (2) Internet dropping to (3) No internet for days, the horror. I had to read books. (4) Burning out my best video card, and buying a horrible replacement And trying to figure out a good costume to match the theme, has been tough. Although, starting to like the ideas being thrown around. As you know, I rather look good than to feel good. Not sure which character/powers to select.

So spikes, you are ready to start? Computers, ISP wise I mean. And if so how many will you make? Cause officially there are 4 of us. I know Kal said he was talking a break but perhaps he can make one with us and play once a week seeing it won't involve incarnates. (crossing fingers) That would be 5 with him.

I'm in...especially right now with me not working. I also sent Psi a txt to see if he's interested in joining us. With it being free to play now I'm hoping he'll come back.

(crossing fingers myself) Been 2 weeks of steady internet, but down one computer at the moment. I can roll out 3 toons with no problem as it is, 4 toons with some drag, and 5 toons for a steady crawl. I think I create a couple flying monkeys that can be scrapped, depending on who shows and plays. The big question is what character to take ? ? ? ? ? Here's another Flying Monkey costume idea.

I'm going with the Scarecrow, going to make a Dominator (Mind Control/Psionic Assault). Basically, cause I haven't played a Dom for any good stretch of time. I've played most of the other ATs up to 40+. Also, considering my trailing the pack pace - the ranged attacks will help me get into the mix sooner rather than later. Being fashionably late will also help with keeping aggro off my, as Doms appear more squishie than Blasters.
Going to create a couple Flying Monkey types - Corruptors (on the fence with Assault Rifle or Beam Rifle / Pain Domination or Time Manipulation)

I wanna try beam rifle...any good? I may go with the Lion then. Let me know if you want the name "Scare-crow" cause I have that one saved from when I was thinking about making him.
