Does Whatever an Elf Can
December 21, 2012
Check this out, pretty cool right? I pick up random toys and stuff all the time. Back in October I shot a photo-booth at my favorite store Rubber Chicken Comics – check them out for great holiday gifts – and bought this Spider-man costume for a Captain Action figure. I had not immediate use for it so I tossed it in the prop bin figuring I would find a need eventually. 3 months later I borrowed this elf to photograph and he has been sitting around for a few weeks. Originally we were going to tie him up, hang him, blindfold him, I even thought of introducing fire, but there are so many “inappropriate” shots of him out there already… then it dawned on me, this costume is a perfect fit. Add some rope, tape and a push pin in the ceiling and I have a Spider-Elf. I just wish the kids were younger and the Elf on the Shelf still “worked” on them. This would have been a cool way to use it. There was also a Hawkeye, Captain America, Loki and Thor outfit. How great would it have been to change the suit every few days and use the Loki version when they had been bad.

My nephew is going to love this pic when I show it to him! Well done!
