Best iPhone costumes to date - hopefully it comes with a Chiropractic app
Macenstein —
Best iPhone costumes to date - hopefully it comes with a Chiropractic app I made an iPhone costume last year which I thought was pretty sweet (basically a sandwich board type thing with giant glossy icons printed out), but apparently it sucked and I looked like a dork, because these guys went all out and really made a kick-ass iPhone costume to die for… and yet they too look like dorks. The video is rather short, presumably either because both fellows suffered crippling back injuries 30 seconds after putting on their costumes (which consist of 40-inch LCD displays) or because whatever giant portable battery unit they have strapped to their backs only lasts 30 ...
"Working" Apple iPhone Costumes Just Plain Win [Costumes]
Gizmodo —
Powered by a car battery and full-size 42-inch LCD TVs, these working iPhone Halloween costumes from Apple costume idiot savants "Reko and Bobby" are surely iPhone fanaticism manifested in physical form. Amazingly, this is not the first time the duo has created human sized iPhone costumes. In 2007, the two created smaller and simpler versions with 37-in. screens that could only display looped videos of real iPhone screens in use. This year, however, shit got real: With some heavy researching and some solid determination [John] Savio finally found a solution. He managed to modify the software ...
Found Footage: iPhone costumes are either genius or deeply misguided

Real Life iPhone Costumes Put Your Crappy Halloween Outfit to Shame [VIDEO]
Mashable! —
Dressing up as Balloon Boy, Kanye West or some other Internet hit this Halloween? Don’t even bother: these real life iPhone costumes already took 1st and 2nd place for best novelty outfits ever.
The costumes took 3 weeks to build, with each weighing 85lbs and requiring a car battery to be worn between the wearer’s legs. An iPhone 3GS is attached to a 42″ LCD screen (not touch screen, alas), turning the wearer into a human-sized iPhone. Co-creator John Savio writes:
This all started two years ago Reko Rivera and Bobby Hartman created a wearable large iPhone costume with a real ...
Working Apple iPhone Costume Anyone?
Mobile Whack —
I donât know about you but I wouldnât wear such a working Apple iPhone costume. Not only is it way too big to carry around the party but you might also break it. Not to mention that it shows everything your iPhone does. And what happens if someone decides to steal the extra large iPhones? The Halloween costumes feature each a car battery, a 42-inch LCD TV and a little iPhone OS tweaking needed to connect the iPhone to the LCD. Each costume weighs 85 pounds and costs around $1,000 to make, so while creators Reko and Bobby will definitely wear them we will gladly look for other costume ideas. What are you going to wear? via TUAW ...
The Best iPhone Costume’s Ever
The Iphone Spot —
You have to hand it to Reko and Bobby for their stick-to-it-iveness; they were behind a similar set of iPhone costumes in 2007, but those didn’t have the fully-functional power of these new outfits. Yes, those are LCD TVs on the front (not touchable, sadly) showing content from the (almost certainly) jailbroken iPhones mounted on top; yes, each getup weighs 85 pounds because it includes a car battery to power the display. I can see how the illusion would be broken by a 500-foot charging cable trailing behind them as they trick-or-treat their way ...

Fully-functional iPhone 3GS costume is expensive, bulky, and better than your Halloween idea
Engadget —
What could possibly convince you that strapping a 42-inch LCD TV to your body is a great idea? We don't know, but somewhere between concept and the $2,000 total expenditures -- with "no regrets," mind you -- Reko Rivera and John Savio, with the help of John Matthews, outfitted themselves with the displays used to project images from their ...
Best iPhone costumes with functional 42-inch screens [W/Video]
Gizmo Watch —
Fun is on the rise, and why not it is Halloween time. You may have stalked in a whole lot of freakish outfits to wear on a single day, but these giant iPhone costumes aren’t what you Apple fanatic or not, would what to miss. You could have gone through them in case they were mere boxes of heap on your shoulder, like some we’ve seen previously, but because these have functional 42-inch screens (not touchscreen); I think they’ll be difficult to pass over.
We’ll have to hand it crazy Apple fanboys Reko and John who’ve actually stuck in a 42-inch HD screen onto each iPhone outfit, which they have modified well to be controlled with their iPhones. ...
Se disfrazan de iPhones con pantallas de 42 pulgadas reales
Gizmologia —
Se viene Halloween y los habitantes de Estados Unidos empiezan a emocionarse más de la cuenta. Ahora estos muchachos, fanboys y locos, decidieron disfrazarse del iPhone, pero para ello no se pusieron un cartón encima, sino dos pantallas de 42 pulgadas.
Lo mejor de todo es que en esas grandes pantallas se proyecta lo que está sucediendo realmente en sus iPhones 3GS. No sé cuánto tendrás ahorrado en tu cuenta o bajo el colchón, pero si quieres ser la sensación de la fiesta tendrás que soltar unos US$2.000. Eso es lo que les salió a ellos. ...
iPhone Halloween costume
Ubergizmo —
Halloween's just around the corner, and you might want to let the world know of your geek cred with the iPhone costume. LCD TVs on the front will display content from iPhones which are stashed away onthe top. You'll need to be pretty beefed up if you want to wear this since it tips the scales at 85 pounds alongside a car battery that provides the necessary juice to power the display.

Best Apple iPhone costume ever
iPhone Atlas —
Halloween is just around the corner and Reko Rivera (left, below) and John Savio (right, below) are ready with the best Apple iPhone costumes we've seen.
Rivera and Bobby Hartman spawned this idea 2007 by creating a wearable iPhone costume using a real 37 inch LCD TV and an iPod. The iPod looped videos of recorded iPhone screens.
Fast forward to 2009, and the costume uses an actual iPhone to generate what you see on the now larger 42 inch LCD TVs. Unfortunately, the screens are not touchable, but otherwise, the costume is pretty amazing.
The costumes each have (probably jailbroken) ...

MacDailyNews —
2009’s ultimate tech halloween costume: Huge Apple iPhone that actually works (with video) Thursday, October 29, 2009 - 04:17 PM EDT "Apple fans have been creating Halloween costumes based on Apple products for years," Cindy Perman reports for CNBC.
