I've been thinking about future cosplays, and since I love Miyazaki films, I wanted to try and cosplay someday as the Blue Totoro from My Neighbor Totoro. Does anyone know where I can find good pictures of the blue one for reference later?

MY AVATAR!!! ^____^

If you did cosplay as Totoro, I'd hug you like a five-year old hugging Santa!

I want to try and someday soon make the costume for the middle-sized totoro and carry around a bag of acorns. ^.^ But I don't have the movie, so I need some reference pictures to store away. I'm looking for those now.

That's a brilliant idea! I'd feel so cozy, heh. You should totally do it, and I'd be sure to get one from you. ^_^

That would be the best. XD After all, furniture wants to have fun cosplaying too... I think. e_e;;

And I'd like a picture of anyone in a My Neighbor Totoro cosplay! Espicially for a friend who may or may not get to go, she would love that.

We had a totoro cosplayer back in 2005. They had a big round bottom hung by suspenders and the top half was draped over an umbrell they held above them. For pictures they'd lower the umbrealla so the pieces overlapped. It was kind of fragile but very cool and clever.

We had them do at least one Pocky delivery for us. ;D
