Awesome! That is exactly what I've been looking for. The price is a bit more, but at least I won't have to worry about cutting myslef or anyone else. Thank you.

I have manufactured and shipped many 'Slashers' all over the world. I give this guarantee: if you purchase it and for any reason whatsoever decide that you do not want to keep it, just send it back and I will give you your money back. I can't say fairer than that!

Yeah, I've seen that. I'll probably end up getting that one because I'll be travelling for Halloween & I'll be less likely to get hassled over a plastic one.

That looks suitably nasty, allright.
What is everyone doing about hair? We've been looking for awhile now, I guess I'll go with the commercial Todd wig, while we are still looking for Mrs. Lovett. There is a ghostly victorian wig we'll probably use, but my wife wants the hair not as grey so she's thinking about spraying it darker with temp hair color.

BTW, she finished making our costumes yesterday. She did a real nice job on the Todd vest.

Just came across this thread while looking for Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett ideas. What wig did you all decide on? How about Mrs. Lovett dress? I'd love to see some pictures of what you've put together so far.

I bought the licensed Sweeney Todd wig from Rubies online - had to look a bit places were sold out. We bought the Victorian wig for my wife and used temporary hair coloring spray to darken it. She followed online instructions on doing up the hair like Mrs. Lovett, it looks pretty good. She also made our costumes - made my vest from scratch, altered and added to black gown she found at Goodwill. We'll post pictures...

Nice to see a few others going as Sweeney & Lovett this year as well. As for the answers to your questions...

I'm not wearing a wig. I grew my hair out. (That's Halloween dedication!) My costume was somewhat easy, as I had a lot of the pieces already. Bought the real razor because the fake one hasn't come out yet (What are they waiting for???). I'm in the process of making the razor holster, as well as they scarf & gloves. I had the shirt specially made & should arrive by the end of the week. That was probably the hardest thing to find. The wife is making her outfit from scratch. I'll see if I can snap some pics this evening & post 'em.

about time too! I thought as soon as Sweeney Todd came out that was THE costume for this year & have been surprised that everyone is just starting to talk about it on here now! Can't wait to see all these pics of you folks going for either sweeney or him & mrs Lovett

Well, we tried our full costumes on together for the first time this evening - and they rocked! We were parading around the house singing "A little Priest" and really getting into character. I'm really proud of my wife for the job she did on the costumes - and everything except for the wigs was either hand sewn or picked up at the thrift store. She even found a shaving cup and brush - I may treat some of our guests to a nice....close...shave.
Our party is on the 25th - I'll post pictures after.
