Oh I know those two cosplayers! -- they're usually at Gally too. Last year, they did the 10 and Sally Sparrow thing with the Weeping Angel and erm something on their backs. Her name is Diane, I think. I've forgotten his. I think they're from Michigan and also go to Chicago Tardis. Nice people. :)

His robots were awesome! We were in line for a while and lots of people stopped to get their photos taken with them. The whole assembly looked rather awkward to carry, though, and Tom Servo's head nearly got knocked off when they had to navigate a short flight of stairs with low clearance. I almost shouted: "Worst. Rescue. Ever!"

I just double checked and his name is Kevin, and she's Diana (aka violet_lane on LJ). Their stuff for Gally was amazing -- he did a Ten-in-Space-Suit (not sure if it was the Impossible Planet one or the 42 one) and it was the Vespiform on his back in the Costume Contest. His/their work is amazing -- backstage at the costume contest, he explained that he made the puppets/props by blowing up/embiggening the action figures so he could get the exact specs/proportions of things.

You can see them in this post. Not surprised that their MST3K stuff was awesome too.

Oh dear, poor Servo! You should have shouted that. :)
