EXO Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 While looking for pics for Minmay's dress while in the 1D I found this page http://www.cosplaycloset.com/Costumes/LynnMinmay/Minmay.html Quote
Macross73 Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 for the those of you with a willing girlfriend or wife you can now live out your fantasy ............... a private concert by Minmay Quote
Graham Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 The funny thing is that website mentions the dresses were made for a 6' 3" client with size 15 feet! But they don't mention if the client was male or female. Now I don't know about you all, but I know exactly zero women who are that tall or have such large feet. I'm betting the costumes were ordered by a cross-dressing male cosplayer. Just how tall is Man-Faye for those of you that have seen him in the flesh, as it were? Graham Quote
nightmareB4macross Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Maybe it the large beast of a woman from the first "Deuce Bigalow, Male Gigolo" movie.

Graham Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I'm wondering if it's actually a member of this board. Come on guys own up, who is it? Out of the dozen or so MWers I've had the pleasure to meet in person, the only one closest to that size would be.............................. Shawn! Mwahahahahahahahaha Nah, more likely it's one of them Row-Boat-Tekkies from that other site. Graham Quote

Mechamaniac Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Watch out Graham, talk of the infamous ManFaye will draw the wrath of the mods. Y'know, I started out thinking, WOW, those are really nicely done, and then got to the bottom and saw the size 15 shoe thing.....and was like...... Quote
yellowlightman Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 There's also a difference in sizes between men's and women's shoes. A 15 women's is (according to Google) equivalent to a men's 13.5. Still awfully big. Quote
Spatula Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 6'3" is massive for a Lynn Minmey figure -cosplayer. She's just like 5'3" I read somewhere, so a 6'3" would be more appropriate for someone like...Focker! Maybe she spent too much time in space and the lack of gravity caused an unusual stretching of the human torso. =o Quote
Guest Bromgrev Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Waitaminnit ... "We had to enlist the help of a cobbler, to fabricate our size-15 pumps." "We had to enlist the help of a cobbler, to fabricate our size-15 pumps." "We had to enlist the help of a cobbler, to fabricate our size-15 open-toe shoes." They're all size 15!? Is this some kind of a one-size-fits-all deal? Quote
Graham Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Nope, I think it just means it was one person that ordered all three costumes. I really hope it is not a guy dressing up in them. The phrase 'one sick puppy' springs to mind. I know I wouldn't like to run into a 6'3" Minmay cosplayer with size 15 feet in a dark alley at night. Definitely would not like to wake up next to one in the morning either. Graham Quote

NERV Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 whether its a man or woman, either one is a scary though, either manmay or amazon minay Quote
Dangaioh Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I did not read the page... but does it glow in the dark? Quote
kanata67 Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I'm guessin it was BobePat 349078[/snapback] be a great outfit to wear while haing his wisdom teeth pulled Quote
Hikuro Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I'm gonna send this link to a friend of mine, she loves Minmay in DYRL even though she loves Mylene even more and has a plan for a cosplay outfit of both characters at somepoint. Quote
Chronocidal Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 (edited) Actually, I can personally say I know someone (female) aproximately that size... she's actually around 6'5" I think.. dunno the shoe size, but I do know she custom ordered a pair of pants with a 40" inseam. >___< Doesn't look anything like Minmay though, and I don't think she's into anime at all, so it's not her.

Hikuro Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I gave the link to my friend, she pointed and laughed saying "Anyone whose into cosplay knows this site! HAHA!" ...............well, I'm not into cosplay so haha.......on her....... Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted December 24, 2005 Posted December 24, 2005 Those are nice, man some must've been hard to make. Quote
Splash Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Since the costumer's website hasn't been updated since 2001 there's been 4 years of con pics to scan through if s/he did in fact wear it in public. The world may never know... I personally know one lady that tall, btw, most attendants of kingdom-level events in Meridies would have seen her too. Don't know if she's into anime, but medieval yes.
