Worked like a charm for me a couple of years ago.

Edit: I had to look up "self-transforming machine elf". Good ol' Wikipedia.

Dressing like a Gypsy for Halloween is an old staple, like witch or pirate.

When we brought Griffin to Wegmans to do their trick or treat thing there Saturday, I got to see what people could do with very little. One woman did a great ladybug thing with a red polka dot shirt and tiny wings. For a work thing, unless you -want- to go all out, a token costume piece might suffice.

I don't think the mask and dress idea is a cop out, it is kind of cool.

Are there photos of your machine elf costume anywhere? That sounds awesome.
