Homemade No More Heroes beam katana contradicts the game's title
Is it a good idea to make a costume and custom-built beam katana prop based on an unreleased game that may not turn out to be any good? Not at all! Is it an awesome idea? HOLY CRAP YES.
This No More Heroes Travis Touchdown costume from .ed is the antidote to yesterday's WarioWare cosplay. The jacket and shirt and drawn-on sideburns are great, but the real draw is the homemade beam katana accessory, which, using science, lights up with a blue glow. It looks just like the Blood Berry beam katana that we've only seen in tiny pictures!
The costume is so good that it even got the attention of a Grasshopper Manufacture employee named Naoko, who emailed him and said " I've just checked your pictures. It looks great. I really like it. I hope people recognized what you made for."

Wow
Maybe if this gets publicized, it'll raise No More Heroes awareness
Awareness that this game has to have

That is all sorts of awesome. I still need to make a Pyramid Head helmet....one of these days.

I hate to break this to everyone, but that "homemade" beam katana is pretty much just a Master Replicas Anakin Skywalker lightsaber with extra doodads glued to it. Nice costume, but credit where credit is due...

You're not breaking anything to anyone. If you read what i did you'd see that i made i t clear what i used and that there is a lot more to it, and no glue. Thx
