mandarin man chinese costume


Okay, so Halloween was several months ago, but this is not a Halloween costume. It's apparently a mascot costume. To be precise, it's a "highest quality" Mandarin Man Chinese Costume. Hey, don't worry, they've got Native American Indian and Mexican costumes too.

I am haunted by the fact that someone would actually pay $983.14 for this monstrosity. I am also deeply disturbed that there is a school or sports team out there that might actually use this damn thing as their mascot. The Fighting Mandarins? Or maybe the Orientals? (Thanks, Eric.)
