My son and I want to thank you! We used your design and created him this costume this spring break 2021! Wonderful week!
Other than the feet being too big this is basically the PERFECT cardboard Optimus Prime costume. Trying to make Wheeljack so I’m taking notes from this video
Go ahead You can do it with effort!
I'm gonna try making this Optimus Prime
(But modifying a bit the feet)
yess!! I wanna make a blaster cosplay but don't know how so I came to this video!
no one's even talking about how cool this is.
Yeah
I love maskot costume
this is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen,just some dork strapping boxes and toy helmets to himself
Also, this is a affordable, "easy" to do costume, that normally would cost at least one hundred to buy online.
I have done various cardboard crafts in the past, and recently watched the Transformers series. I instantly went to CZcams to see what I could find and this popped up. I am currently making the Optimus Prime costume. Thanks for the tutorial!
You guys always do a great job with these builds
If only Prime looked like this in the actual movie
This is one of y'alls best costumes yet. Great build.
My 8 year old self is screaming with joy. Not to mention my 43 year old is as well. This costume is awesome!!!!
I am working on michael bay prime with g1 Gun for my Halloween costume
I love how simple he makes these
Popsicle stick time!
We won, we won the best costume yesterday! thank you for a great tutorial… I’m so proud of you mommy!!! My 4 yr old son blurted this out as soon as we finished the costume!
14:30 Dustin is so surprised
13:37 Dustin helping and sees wgat it looks like
6:47 "Again we are just using all cardboard for this entire thing." UH UH I SAW DAT HELMET AWWWW I'M TELLING
Big Mounchi To be fair it’s only the helmet that’s not cardboard
I mean um paint isnt cardboard
This is a joke btw

My dude, transformers are LIFE! The costume looks great!
I just love the G1 version of Optimus Prime!!
Keep up the great work
Optimus prime is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!
4:09 Bens favourite time of the day!
🤣🤣🤣
What a great nostalgia I used to watch your Behind the Scenes and DCS every day.
Transformers fans are the real sigma males, I wish I had the motivation, time, hot glue, duct tape, paint, or cardboard to make this.
I'm crying this is amazing. ✔️😭😭😀👍👍
You keep on chatting ☺️😉😉☺️☺️☺️
Ugh 🤢 when Ben put the exhaust pipes they are sickeningly good 👍😀 nice job Ben they look so so so so accurate ✔️✔️
Nice 👍👍 your account has a transformer picture
@@bigscholar7396 yeah it's pretty cool
Best Episode yet!
Amazing 😉 costume I really want to make a Godzilla costume
I'm guessing this would more or less be the same for any other transformers build. As I would really love to do G1 Starscream one day
Ben or Dustin make the 1986 bumblebee please
Toilet roll Terminator I hate the g1 version because kid like characters are going to die or get the matrix of leadership (iam looking at u hot rod)
Jose Gonzalez depends on how old you are
@@steven0470 true
You sick son of the devil agree with him
Guess what time it is? It's Prime Time!
Very well done, Ben!
I love it! ❤️ I'm going to try to do it for my son, I hope to do it pretty much like this ...
I was young when they came out with amazon prime and I thought it was a new transformer
....me too
I cant lie so did I😅
Wow...that’s amazing 😂
LOL 😂 😂😂😂😂😂🤣😂😂😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You guys are great on making homemade movies and you guys are all so glad on making costumes
Your technique for adding the logo is called monoprinting!
Awsome cinefix you guys are really good at ths
KaijuFan 2000 v
My version has a slightly protruding chest with a matrix port, which I don’t have a matrix for
This looks amazing!
THAT IS AWESOME I Love it (p.s I'm huge Optimus prime fan lol 😂)
The original Robocop would be cool to see DIY'd.
Her cosplay looks awesome!!! Thanks for sharing.
ๅฃไหป
I did that for halloween
@@WagesofCine his*
8:50 optimus primer lol.
Bádum tss!!!🥁
@@murilog.p.1383 Thanks.
@@jmasonrcingabout273 your welcome
Theres nothing
You saved my dad now he's in the dressing up spirit
That is amazing Ben.
You guys should do a jason voorhees costume DIY!
That would probably be the shortest DIY ever. It's just a hockey mask and dirty clothes.
Hey, dont say that! That would be cool, and the people's reaction would be HILARIOUS
Wyldstaar Studio they would need to also make his face
And put the details
How about Jason X/Uber Jason ? That’s more a challenge
Very impressive work. Did you use anything to reinforce the points where the zip ties connect costume pieces? I built a Mach-5 and found that reinforcing around the holes with duct tape prevents the zip tie from ripping out.
Would love to see you guys pull off a classic Lion Voltron. Again, you guys do very impressive and outstanding work
Best of all, you didn t have to spend a lot of money to make a really great cosplay.
I may use this for Halloween! Amazing job!
Thats the best costume in the costume squad in my opinion
I'm drinking the Optimus prime drink and watching this lol😂😂😂
Oh my god
You guys should make a mandalorian character
Titanium Wires Boba Fett!
Nice to see another g1 fan
Finnish highschools have a tradition where graduating students dress up as various characters and throw candy at children from a truck. I'm gonna be Megatron (actually wanted to be Soundwave but Megatron is probably more recognizeable) and this video was exactly what I needed
I made Soundwave
@@blasterstopmotion :D

Awesome build! I'm using this plan for my Halloween costume this year, and I'm still a little confused as to how the shoulders and arms fit together. Can anyone elaborate?
Me:watching the video oh this going to be easy.2years later.me:SIGHS finally
I am the only one in my family who can make very good costumes from cardboard in my family in like 1 day to a week
I'm trying to make this costume right now and this video was so helpful!
You guys are amazing I like that you made the old version of Optimus prime instead of using Michael bays keep up the good work guys
When you realize you can make almost this whole costume for free
why u pfp the n word
Huh
You guys rock! I love diy cosplaying! please do Deadshot from suicide squad!
Chris Mc YAAAAS, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME, but I want to see a Savitar and CW Deadshot.

I think a power ranger build would be cool!
Yeah
Huh ah
That’s just a spandex suit and the helmet
Rusty Sinkpipe slsosos
Well that's just prime......
I enjoy seeing this more than the scenes
They are amazing at this
This is exactly what I was looking for as this is what my 12 year old wants. Its helped tremendously! But although the video is 16 minutes and 13 seconds long, I keep rewinding because you don't mention keeping or removing flaps from boxes, reinforcement that might be needled with duct tape, etc. So I've had to redo this box section, that box section, erc. Then I get a little further and your recutting a box opening again! Just frustrating if one is ACTUALLY trying to do this with a limited time frame. But I'll get there. Thanks! Sincerely appreciate the info and awesome video!! It won't be as awesome as yours but it will still be awesome!
Hey Costume Squad!!!! I'm currently working on building this AMAZING Optimus Prime for Kokomo-Con 2017. ( Kokomo is in Indiana, small town, but it's still pretty awesome!) I'm having some trouble figuring out exactly how you keep your feet in the legs?? Did you glue shoes down and just put your feet in that way?? Glue socks to the cardboard and make it easier to put them on and keep them on?? Right now I have a hole cut in the front that leads to the "toes," and it keeps it on a little bit, but the back seems to hang down, like it's uneven. Can you help a nerd out here and tell me how you guys did it so I can do it too? :D
Dang man. 3 years and they still haven’t responded. What did you end up doing for the legs?
Super cool. Can't wait to do this project with grandsons
great job Ben love your work😊
Make a Jason Costume.Friday the 13th
That would probably be the cheapest costume on this channel, dirt and bloody up a hockey mask and some old work clothes.
Kaalif 12 yes I did

Hey CineFix, i want you to make a cool transformers prime Arcee costume!😎 it would be so cool if you would manage it!
