RGB: Janine Melnitz by AngstyGuy on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

From Otakon 2011 comes my humongous, spectral-spectacular, 7-months-in-the-making Real Ghostbusters cosplay group!! The most epic undertaking I've ever done, with every problem you can imagine popping up, going way over budget, and just plain icky, we FINALLY got it done and were a gigantic hit at the con! In fact, "gigantic" is an understatement! People were all "OMFG That's awesome! NO ONE EVER does the CARTOON Ghostbusters!!" EVERYONE wanted our picture, and many of them wanted their picture taken with us, and not just people at the convention! Random folks wandering around the Inner Harbor, too! We were even interviewed by the internet! Twice! One video can be seen here: [link] (go to 17:04 to see us!). The other one, we haven't found yet...

Here we have my dear friend Danielle (aka ) as Ms. Janine Melnitz. Being a girl and all, I felt she was a natural fit for Janine. This costume is based off the Ghostbuster-Janine from the episode "Mr. Sandman Dream Me a Dream," and lemme tell you, she was a colossal hit. Possibly bigger than Winston. EVERYONE was like "OMFG you NEVER see Janine!" "OMG and it's GHOSTBUSTER JANINE!!" One guy even THANKED her for NOT wearing the "booty shorts" skimpy girls Ghostbuster uniform! Everyone loved she was decked out in full equipment and uniform. And isn't she just adorable in it?
