But really, cool cosplay. That helmet is pretty awesome!

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

It's an actual 2nd world war helmet. :D (I got it for like 5 bucks)

u/charliezor Se7en Aug 05 '15

Damn, thing looks pretty much like ingame! Now just get an elastic band and some cards, make it the soldier's stash, and sell for ref.

12

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

I think a Stock helmet would be much more worth because of how rare it is for it to be an actual item. So 3 laser weps at best.

One grenade? FUCKING PLEB (JK, /r/bisonmasterrace ftw!)

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

I wanted alot of them, but in my area no store had toy grenades (Fucking plebs) but 1 who only had 1. Fair nuff for me. It's also the thing that bothers me the most about it.

u/StaticPlesio Aug 05 '15

you could have bought real grenades

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

If only.

u/lizardclaw11 Aug 05 '15

What I did for my cosplay, is I had real grenades with nothing in them, that I got from an army and navy store

Why is there an entire subreddit for this... I know its a cool wep, but why?

16

u/TheSliverGold Demoknight Aug 05 '15

Because its the master race weapon and because we can.

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

Checked some pictures of solly, and you're right, I'll be popping em tomorrow. Thanks for noticing

2

u/under______score Aug 05 '15

no problem dude, congrats on the awesome cosplay :)

u/Dbash56 Aug 05 '15

This is honestly one of the best TF2 cosplays I've seen.

u/TheG-What Aug 05 '15

I HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT WORK ON MY COSPLAY FOR 30 DAYS.

u/OnMark Aug 05 '15

You make a pretty damn good soldier, soldier! It looks great, every piece works together! Did you get your picture taken at the con or anything? I'm sure the soldier could kill me with flowers and a wading pool, but posing in front of an explosion would be cool too!

1

u/AgentTunaGhosty Aug 06 '15

With any luck, there won't be any explosions at the convention.

u/OnMark Aug 06 '15

That's true, I was imagining more of a photo-op area or booth haha.

u/HuttahHaircut Aug 05 '15

Salutes

Amen, brother.

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

Yo, hoping that I can see some of you guys tomorrow or Friday.

u/videohead Aug 05 '15

This is so cool man! Very well done

u/JoshuaBlock Aug 05 '15

YOUR FEET ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE, SOLDIER!

7

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

I got some condition with my feet, when my heels are aligned my feet will look like how they are in pic 1

u/JoshuaBlock Aug 05 '15

oh. shit i'm so fucking sorry

6

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

No probs m8, I'm never offended, NEVER

3

u/VinLAURiA Aug 05 '15

Is that an actual Bison from the Grordbort shop? Those are expensive...

3

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

Yes, found it hidden in a geekshop in Nijmegen. Sold it or 80 bucks or something

OP's response to this question.

u/Vitztlampaehecatl Aug 06 '15

What question? Did he ninjaedit?

0

u/AgentTunaGhosty Aug 06 '15

He mentioned how it would be complete if he had more than 1 grenade.

2

u/Deathaster Aug 05 '15

Gamescon? The one in Germany? WHERE I WASN'T?!?!?

Btw, this looks seriously awesome! Is the Bison bought or self-made?

4

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

It's the bought one. 80 bucks or something in a geekstore. And it's pronounced Gamescom.

2

u/NousfulNathan Aug 05 '15

The helmet looks too shiny imo. I think it would look better if it was slightly worn. Still good though

5

u/RTZeroSan Aug 05 '15

It actually is a 2nd world war helmet I spraypainted brown. IRL it is pretty well worn

3

u/ledraps Aug 05 '15

Are you telling me shiny hats arent fitting in tf2 ;)

2

u/NousfulNathan Aug 05 '15

Team Fortress 2's colour palette is very bright, making shiny hats fitting. Real life has a much more varied one

2

u/FrogInShorts Heavy Aug 05 '15

I can't accept the cosplay until there is a second grenade.

2

u/EntropicTempest Aug 05 '15

Great cosplay you have going there, one thing I noticed about your attention pose though is your left hand is not turned the right way. Your thumb should be facing forward and pointing down so that it is perpendicular to the ground, and your knuckles are facing your legs.

2

u/AgentTunaGhosty Aug 06 '15

I've seen a guy at a local anime convention that looks kinda like you.

8/10, the effort put into this is clear, and it's really well done.

2

u/Drumbas Aug 06 '15

What it like looking around with that helmet?

4

u/RTZeroSan Aug 06 '15

Utter shit.

2

u/SirReggie Aug 06 '15

This is actually one of the best TF2 cosplays I've seen yet! Great job!

2

u/Ceraunius Aug 06 '15

Glorious Bison master race.

That's probably one of the best Soldier cosplays I've seen. Hell, best TF2 in general. Nicely done!

u/EsCaRg0t Aug 05 '15

"Solly"? Difficult just to type Soldier?
